Waiting to fall back

When do we fall back? Not till November 7? Aauugghh. Remember the good old days when we fell back the last weekend in October? Better yet, I want to fall back and never spring ahead again. It's bad for us:

When researchers in Sweden examined the impact of daylight saving time on heart attack rates in that country, they discovered that people had slightly fewer heart attacks on the Monday after they set their clocks back in the fall and slightly more heart attacks in the days after they set their clocks ahead in the spring.


Sleeping longer: good. Getting up earlier: bad.

I guess I should move to Arizona, where they are sensible enough to refuse to have daylight saving time. Oh, that our nation would come to its senses and hit the snooze button.
