It's now 3:08 a.m. CST where I'm sitting. This time tomorrow it will be 2:08 a.m., I think, with the time change tonight.

What time is it NOW where you are?

My computer clock says 9am exactly. My bedroom clock says 8 AM exactly. Hopefully, by tomorrow I won't be confused :)

OK, not to be nit-picky, but as an Indiana resident with more than a passing interest in the subject, I feel a need to offer a minor correction to this.

I believe it was 3:08 a.m. CDT (central daylight time) when you posted. That equates to 2:08 a.m. CST (central standard time), which is the time zone your clock will be set to tomorrow. CST doesn't change. Rather, you quit observing Daylight Savings Time and set your clocks back to Standard Time.

And at this time, it is 12:44 EDT where I sit, which is 11:44 CDT and also 11:44 EST, which is the time I will be on tomorrow.

The big problem I have to watch out for is that I don't go and set the clock back another hour after my wife, unknown to me, has already reset it. This year we've already established who's doing what - kind of like the Mafia deciding who gets the 'numbers' and who gets the 'loan sharking'.
Last year I didn't discoverthe true time 'til I was in the car (which she didn't get to). Instead of a nice leisurely breakfast on the way to church, I subsisted on a Mickey-D Egg MacM eaten while driving.

It is now 5:02 MST, which it will be at this time tomorrow and at this time Monday, Tuesday, etc., etc. And it was 5:02 MST at this time yesterday.

I love that we don't observe Daylight Savings time here. It's kind of a spiritual thing....we're the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow..... :) :)

What Debi said, too. However, I didn't refer to it as MST, but as RST ... Redneck Standard Time, thinking [I guess] of Jeff Foxworthy's "redneck" humor. It's explained like this: "Well, if'n y'all take an hour from he'ah, and put it over thar, y'all ain't got no mo' time than when y'all started. So, why change the clocks!?" It's old by now, since I tho't of it not long after being in AZ (probably the first time the rest of the country was changing their clocks and we were not), but I still ......... ;)

I'm glad that you derive such satisfaction from it. Arizona's boycott of Daylight Savings cost me an hour of my life back in '66 - an hour I've never gotten back. :-))

So you are more spiritual than the Native Americans in the north east of Arizona? ;)

BTW, I'd love to give up Winter time, and stick do DST all year round, spiritual or not!

6:23 EST. I've been up almost two hours and it's still night. And I let myself get brainwashed into thinking I'd get an "extra" hour of sleep.

Dana, Debi, you mean you don't like excitement in life watching your computer or cell phone clocks to switch back an hour when it reaches 2 AM? If you have never stayed up to watch that happen you have never experienced effervescent excitement of the first order?

It is 7:24 AM Monday morning. We don't do daylight saving in Queensland, although they do in the rest of the country. If we did it would be the change to summer time but I think that happened a few weeks ago. I am in the rather odd position of not being a fan of daylight saving but aruging for it everytime the conversation comes up because the reasons against are usually flawed. My position is I don't like the change but it definitely has merit where I live. Sunrise is 4 am in summer but sunset is only around 7. A sift in an hour actually gives a heap of more usable time.

Yea, right. When Indiana started changing time a couple of years ago I realized that in our many years of year-round standard time, we had foolishly allowed our clock population to grow unbounded. Do you have any idea how long it takes me to get all the clocks in the house and vehicles changed?? And even as I type this, one of the smoke detectors has noticed all the attention the clocks are getting and is demanding a new battery. And the dog that is usually fine with being outside wants to come in. Where will it ever end? Hold firm, Dana and Debi!
