BST

So, the clocks have changed.


I hate it when we change back to summer time. The whole 'losing an hour' thing really doesn't sit well with me.


It's like having jet lag, but without the holiday. =(



Also, I know it's possible to go on the internet, and have loads of time pass without even noticing, and then afterwards you feel really bad, because those were hours of your life that you have nothing to show for, and that you'll never get back.

But technically, you were doing something during those hours.


But when the clocks change, you lose the hour without it even being your fault.


So far in my life, I've lost 17 hours.




I know that we get the hour back later in the year when we change the clocks again, but it all seems like a bit of a dodgy deal to me.




And on top of the dodginess(?!) of it all, it's really confusing.


I'm not a morning person. Loads of people arent good at mornings. So when you wake up, and try to get your eyes to focus on the clock, you have to try and figure out whether you're:

a) An hour late

b) Can sleep for another hour.

c) Awake in time.


Which just shouldn't happen. Nobody should have to make decisions like that first thing in the morning.


I was actually OK today. Fortunately, I only live a 5 minute jog from church.



In fact, now that I think about it, the only day in the whole year that I wake up on time is the day that we gain an hour. Extra hours can be handy.
