Time change

October 31, 2005

The time change sucks. You heard me say it. Yup, for all those of you out there with a little one who has no idea what a time change is or, for that matter, needs a little lesson about time in general (not to mention relativety and.. well, I guess physics in general), you know exactly what I’m talking about.

Hayes got up at 5 this morning. Last week if he got up then it was six. Six is a good time. Five is not. Five sucks like the time change.

He did this despite us keeping him up to the unhead of time of 7:30 (well, 6:30 after all this daylight savings nonsense) to make sure he’d get the picture and sleep a bit more. Didn’t happen.

Funny thing is, before HBomb showed up, this time change was that awesome once-a-year extra hour of sleep. You could get up what felt like an hour late and still get to work on time! Now, with child, I get to get up an hour earlier than last week?!? Man, this time change sucks.

    Ugh - you could have stopped by for coffee…Sophie was kind enough to get me up at five also…damn you Ben Franklin!

    Yep William got us too. Although he’s made up for it the last couple of days since he’s slept in to 8am.

    Now we’re expecting him to come down sick tomorrow because it is just unheard of him sleeping past 6 in the morning.

    I hear ya! The babies are getting hungry and hour earlier, tired an hour earlier - throwing the whole damn schedule that we took months to get implemted right out the window!

    At my son’s daycare all the workers look beat to hell and back. When you walk in, all you can hear is complaining little kids.

    Our H did better than we could have hoped for with the time change THANK GOD.

    What’s up with the Wang Chung?!
