ALERT!!  Now is the time to begin practicing for daylight savings time.  What is that you say?  Practicing?  Yes. 

QUICK:  What time will it be next week at this same time?  See, you do need to practice. Something to remember; you need to know the current time in order to really reap the benefits of practicing. I just asked Brenda, “Quick, what time will it be at this time next week?” “I don’t know.” she said “I don’t know what time it is now.” Fair enough, I told her the time but then she said. “I don’t want to practice for Daylight Saving time right now.”

To be fair she had just gotten up from a nap.  

Not only do you want to practice what time it will be, but also, practice the actual Daylight. Will it be darker in the morning?  I know it will be lighter later in the day, but think about the morning.  Be ready people!

For those people who want to do away with Daylight Saving time, fuck off.  We live in Minnesota, the amount of actual nice spring and summer weather is precious.  Why would you want it to get dark at 7:30  rather than after 9:00??? Seriously.

So suck it up people, start practicing; take a nap if you need to, you will lose an hour of sleep, but, get ready to have more glorious daylight!

This is Brenda doing a great job of getting ready to lose that hour of sleep. Roo and her friends are also practicing. (Yes, Brenda is actually napping.)

Also, it’s Daylight Saving time NOT Daylight SavningS time like I had thought. Huh.
