This all goes back to how friggin' backwards I am, remember

Only -I- could have trouble with Fall Back. Everyone else Loves Gaining that Hour and to me it is pure torture and messes with my mind for at least a week if not two.

I absolutely Love Spring Forward and bought some flowers today to celebrate
