Going Arizona

So! Daylight savings time? No longer any good. Actually, I'm pretty sure daylight savings has been no good to most of us for decades now. And is it even helpful for farmers? How does darkness at 4:30 pm in the middle of the winter benefit anyone? HOW?

Anyway, I digress. So daylight savings time is now so very irritating with a little one. Bella woke up at 5:20 AM this morning. Granted, it felt like 6:20, but this is no good. Where was the blissful extra hour of sleep of years past? Gone. I BLAME UNPROTECTED SEX.

The other problem with daylight savings time is that I cannot wrap my head around what time it is and/or what time it feels like it is. I'm a smart women who has a couple of glaring areas of stupidity: clock reading/time telling and animals. Read all about my previous shameful animal mistakes and who I feel caused my stupidity here.

Today Husband and I discussed what our plan would be for (1) adjusting Chicken to daylight savings time and then (2) adjusting Chicken to Eastern Standard Time for our week in Florida later this month. Since we would be adjusting her forward only to have to adjust her back (or is it the opposite?...so confused), we decided just to go Arizona and ignore daylight savings time until we return from our trip. This means there will be lots of 5:20 AM wake up calls in my near future. Maybe I should contact HR about the hours this job has me keeping?

Speaking of clock & animal skills, my animal knowledge was surely tested today at the park. I think I've arrived at the correct answer: DUCKS!

Right? Right??
