While we’re thrilled to know that spring is on it’s way, the fact that we get one extra hour of daylight now has us less than excited. After all, what’s one more extra hour of gloom? Just more daylight to burn until bedtime, if you want our opinion.
This edition of Monday Sound Off is brought to you by three little letters: DST. What’s got your grump on today? Tell us, we want to know!
Laura wants to start an “Abolish Daylight Savings Time” Facebook Fan Page, and Amy wants to know who is going to replace that hour she lost this week.
What’s got you in a funk today? Go ahead and share. We won’t judge. You know you want to.

Middle schoolers who are exposed to too much information for their age and then bring it into my middle schoolers world. Grr.
Food poisoning from the dinner I ate at O’Charley’s last night. I couldn’t even keep water down today.
Daylight savings? Why are they saving it? Who are they saving it for? My boys and I would like to have some back so that it’s easier to get up at 6…in the dark, again.
I purposely take a vacation day on Monday every year after the “spring forward” b/s time change. There is no “savings” if you ask me. That “extra” hour of daylight is nothing but making you wake up at an awful hour just so you can sit around zombie-like in the evening going: “Yay. I have an extra hour of daylight!” Big whoop. Most people are inside by then anyway. If we just left the time alone, we would benefit much more. I will GLADLY join the “Abolish Daylight Savings Time” FB page! Arrrrugh!
Why not spring ahead half an hour and be done with it?
