So obviously, we all set the time back an hour last Sunday. This is still a relatively new concept for Indiana because, until recently, we didn't have daylight savings time. I personally don't like it at all--just another inconvenience that I have to deal with twice a year.
I got up today thinking it would be dark and cold outside. But, alas, I walk outside and get fucking blinded by the sun. I had to take off my scarf because it wasn't cold either (It's a big deal to me at 7:30 in the morning when I'm all angsty). This change is trying to mess with my head, I know it! I don't like it.
I figured that because it was so bright out that people could see past their windshield now and would, thus, be able to actually drive the speed limit. Boy, was I wrong. They must have been blinded too, because traffic was slower than previously.
The worst part is that it gets dark at freakin' five o'clock! I mean, sure, it's lighter in the morning, but who really cares? I don't give a shit if it's light or dark--either way the morning sucks... hard. I'd prefer to get out of school and still be able to at least see the sun for minute. Is that so much to ask for?
The only good thing that comes from daylight savings time is the extra hour of sleep in the fall; but it's counteracted by the reduction of sleep in the spring. Daylight savings time is an epic failure.
