yo man
So we lost an hour on Sunday, but we gain a later sunset everyday from now to November. But, if I go to bed at say 10pm it's really 9pm, so I go to bed earlier, but I'm still awake and stay awake until 11pm, the real 10pm. Then if I set the alarm for 6am it's really 5am, So instead of 8hrs sleep I get 6hrs, that is if I fall asleep when my head hits the pillow, which it doesn't. I lost an hour, I'm losing sleep, I'm behind on my chores and my work, but I've gained a later sunset, a later sunset so I don't consume as much electricity in the evening, but now I'm staying awake later, using electricity, getting up earlier when it's darker now and using more electricity. What exactly am I saving? It's definitely not my energy or my sleep or my sanity or my money. How much daylight did we really save?
