Daylight saving time

This is officially a venting session, if you love daylight savings time, please take no offense, I will still try to think of you the same way.

I absolutely loath daylight savings time!! I cannot believe congress took a joke made by Benjamin Franklin seriously. I have heard rumors that it is for the benefit of farmers, that is a lie from the pit of the devil!! I grew up in a farming community, and I never heard of any farmer saying, "I sure loves daylight savings time, 'cuz I can get more work done." Hello! farmers wake up before dawn anyway regardless of what the clock says, so instead of waking up at 4 to do the morning milking they just wake up at 5! Cows don't do daylight savings time. And have you seen any tractors lately, they have headlights, they can work whenever they want!

The other excuse for this all-time-dumbest-law-in-the-history-of-the-world, is that is saves energy. Who's energy I would love to know, as a mother of two young children I know for a fact it takes alot more energy to put your kids to bed when it is still light outside and wake them up when it is dark. How exactly does it save energy to turn lights on in the morning and at night, when just a few weeks ago we only turned them on for a few hrs at night. I hate how the day flies by during daylight savings, I am not a morning person, so now instead of dragging until 10 it's now 11... and instead of drifting off to sleep around 11:30 I am tossing and turning in bed...seething with anger....until 12:30. I feel like I loose 4 hrs instead of 1.

All those who are with me say AYE... those against... go eat mud!
