Don't forget to turn your clocks back

[Pengwuino]

It's that time of hear folks :tongue2:

 

[mattmns]

We get an extra hour right?

 

[Pengwuino]

Yah, which is stupid because it should be done on sunday night so we all get the extra hour when we REALLY need it (an extra hour before work/school)

 

[Ivan Seeking]

Don't forget to turn your clocks back!

Every day, like clockwork!

 

[JamesU]

I don't have DST :tongue:

 

[whozum]

arizona wins, yet again

 

[mattmns]

Ohh yeah I forgot: Arizona declared a while back that their citizens are too stupid to understand DST :tongue2:

You all do. I'm in the middle of an experiment, so the actual time on the clock is irrelevant. We will have Eastern Time and Experiment Time here. :grumpy: It was rather challenging figuring out how to put together this schedule, and fortunately, it turned out that I could arrange it so the 2 AM samples aren't collected until Monday night, so now they are 1 AM samples and I'm the only one who has to keep track that 7 AM really is 12 hours after 8 PM.

... What?

Someone explain what moonbear just said in English.

I have to take blood samples from sheep for the next 4 days, all timed relative to the injection they got today. So, while all the rest of you are sleeping in an extra hour tomorrow, I have to be at the farm taking a sample at 7 AM instead of 8 AM (12 hours from the injection given at 8 PM tonight). I don't get to appreciate the time change with an extra hour of sleep. Did I make more sense this time? It might be the last I make sense until Thursday...it'll be another week of sleep-deprivation for me.

Sounds like what you need is a bit of sheep-deprivation.

yeah I get it.

:rofl: Tell me about it! My back is already killing me from lifting a 112 kg (that's almost 250 lbs for the metric-challenged) sheep yesterday (with help, but not enough help). I came home yesterday and fell asleep on the couch before even making dinner, then had to struggle to stay awake just to heat up some soup. I really could use that extra hour of sleep, and I'm not going to get it.

 

[mattmns]

Well it is good that we are going back. The last few nights I have been sleeping a little later than I should, and now today I will be back on track for a while.

250lbs, WHAT? I must have missed your huge biceps in your picture

hmm maybe that's because they'r of her FACE!

 

[Moonbear]

Yep, I'm in sheep shape now. (Aw, these jokes would make Ivan proud. :tongue2:)

I had someone to help with the lifting, but she was a monster, and I think I got the heavy end (they are usually around 70 kg...more like 150 lb that two people can easily lift). Between the stair-climbing from the parking lot (I can almost get to the top without getting winded now) and the sheep lifting, they're making sure I get a good workout around here.

Guam doesn't have daylight savings time either, not because we're too stupid, but because the messenger hasn't gotten here yet.

I hope he can swim. :uhh:

 

[loseyourname]

So should something have changed now? Is it really approaching midnight rather than 1?

 

[Pengwuino]

supposedly at 2am you switch back to 1am

 

[whozum]

YEah its 1:37 but some posts on the HW forum were posted at 1:44 + :O

 

[rachmaninoff]

True. I lived through two one AMs today. Now I'm very confused.

 

[whozum]

So do bars close twice or what?

 

[zanazzi78]

I forgot to turn my clock back and have got up an hour early. And on a Sunday :zzz:

 

[brewnog]

Not only is Moonbear now one of those scary female bodybuilders, she's got a green name and is a mentor? How did this happen?

The times they are a changing, and I'm not so sure I like it!

 

[matthyaouw]

Today I slept til 12, but I don't have to feel so bad about it as it turns out I only slept til 11

:rofl: I'm not a scary female bodybuilder! I'm not some puny, wimpy person, but I'm definitely not a bodybuilder...that's a scary look.

But, yeah, I turned green somewhat recently.

I guess it's too late to do you any good until next year, but usually it's a popular bar night because you get an extra hour of drinking before closing time.
