Do you know which way to set your clocks?

This time of year, it's always confusing. Am I a boy... am I a girl... no wait. Let's start over.

This time of year, it's always confusing. Should I set my clocks ahead one hour or back one hour or ahead 23 hours or 46 hours? See what I mean. Anyone can Google the correct answer, but here's a simple poem I wrote to help you remember which way the wind blows.

Roses are red, dead roses are black. In the spring, spring ahead... in the fall, don't smoke crack.

Now, on to my real solution to the problem at hand: (get it... clock hands?)

Get a head start on this weekend's upcoming time change by setting your clocks back 1 hour now. Or, set them back 2 hours and then ahead one hour at 2 AM on Sunday. Or maybe at 1 AM. Now I'm confused...

If it's Tuesday, this must be Belgium. If you don't believe me... look it up.

I've gotta go so I'm not late... or early.
