Booking Through Thursday – Spring Forward
Posted on March 7, 2013 in Books
Clocks change this weekend here in the US, which means one less hour to read … does anybody else begrudge that hour like I do? Wish the Powers That Be would just pick a time-frame and stick to it instead of inflicting clock-driven jet lag on an innocent public twice a year?
(Yeah, so not a question so much about reading … except, of course, you do need to use your electric light to be able to read, so the hour it gets dark IS relevant!) – BTT
Time, how I want more of thee! Of course, we technically get the hour back in the autumn. I have too many hobbies these days, and I’m sad that I must manage my time between them, work, and being generally social. I do look forward to summer and it’s longer days. June 21st is one of my favourite days of the year.
I do read a lot in the evenings which is not great, but my new Otto Lamp helps. Still, there is a reason why I read much more in the summer. Not only out of habit, but all that daylight!
I’ll try to get to bed earlier on Saturday so I can save as much as that missing as I can.
I prefer the longer days, too, so it’s worth losing an hour of sleep for me!

Hi Megan! I need more sleep. I love sleep! Anyway, I want to sleep earlier so I can have a bit more daylight when I wake up. Thanks for commenting!
Thanks for sharing….and I like your attitude.

Thanks, Laurel! Have a great weekend!
I love reading outside when it gets warmer.

Hi TBM! I need to do that more too when it gets warmer. Have a good day!
Time change is tough! It’ll probably kill me for a week …. but then hopefully it’ll get better. cheers. http://www.thecuecard.com/
Hi Susan! Is it like jetlag for you then? One hour does not really affect me either way, but I’ll miss that extra hour. Have a good week!
