Week 10 - Why We All Should Hate A Time Change.

It happened last night at 2 o'clock in the morning here in California. The dreaded time change. We sprung forward. Most of us will relish in the additional hour of sunlight. I for one hate the time shift into the spring season.

We are forced to move our biological rhythms, so they align with human fabricated time. With this change, it seems like we are asking for trouble. With the time altered, we are required to eat later and get up earlier. Our kids resist going to bed and rising in the morning on time. We spend a whole week trying to get back on track. In fact, studies show weird things happen during daylight savings time. Read about them here on Live Science "5 Weird Effects of Daylight Savings."  Some of the strange happenings include an increase in heart attacks and a possible uptick in car accidents.  

I'm going to get up on my soapbox and say forget the time change! It creates a whole week of mixed up madness in modern day life. 

Altering time is for the birds. Let's create a stand, protest spring forward and go back to bed.

Until tomorrow Early Risers.
