Brunch dates and flag football games might be a little easier to get to this Sunday, when phones grace early-risers with an extra hour of rest before alarm clocks go off.
Personally I’m up at 5 anyway and my kid has to be up by 6 for school. But in a previous no kid life I wouldn’t prefer that either. Even within Eastern time zone there’s a difference between sunset times between a western edge in Kingston TN and Boston MA. No matter which way we go, someone is going to be dissatisfied.
I don’t enjoy trying to go to bed at 9:30PM during the summer and have the sun blaring thru my window. I’m fine with standard time.
The thing is, you have to look at sunrise too. Would you really want the sun beaming at you at 4:30 AM in the morning during the Summer Solstice ?
Switching is worse than either. It needs to stop.
