Pacific Time

That's right, folks. Due to all of you springing ahead with Daylight Savings Time, that puts Arizona back on Pacific Time. We are now THREE HOURS behind all of you and will be until the Fall. The time change is good for going to the mall (yeah, it's weird going to the mall in a different time zone), television schedules (long story, but most of the stuff comes from L.A., so during Mountain Time, we get it an hour later), but it really stinks for phone calls.

My brother and I figured it out the other day with his being in Afghanistan and after the daylight savings, we think he is 12.5 hours (yes, Afghanistan does a half hour) ahead of me with the time change! Holy cow...that's crazy.

Speaking of strange things this state does, when Edward and I switched over our driver's licenses (don't get me started on that-we had to), we discovered Arizona gives out a lifetime license. It really expires at age 65, where you then get a new one, but my license has an expiration date of 2043. Oh, and the cost for that license-$25.
