Think of it more as scheduling rather than "SwITcHiNg TiMe ZoNEs Oh NOo!"

"Party starts at 8/7? Cool. I'll be there."

Not that fucking hard.

If you work in one state and live in another... Adjust. Seriously, again.. not that big a deal.

And the majority of outstanding mortgages are under 3%. Everyone and their mom refinanced in 20-21.

A large amount of effort barely affects resale value so who cares. Bottom of my priorities list

Toronto has arguably better restaurants and a larger variety. Boston maybe has an edge on seafood

Break the window and have insurance replace it for no charge. It's the easiest way. /S

Six. Weird, didn't have an issue before. Maybe they changed the rules

Feb is on average warmer than january

Edit: I guess people like downvoting facts... Here's climate data for Worcester, for example: Worcester Climate

I invite you to link me to any city's climate data in MA that shows Feb is colder than Jan.

Basically over. I've got flowers sprouting in my front yard and tomorrow it's going to be almost 50. In just ~30 days it will be March

I do... All the time for doctors appointments and stuff, etc. My workplace used to have unlimited sick and personal time but had to put a number on it after an MA legislation change (I think?). The initial number given to each person was calculated based on how long your tenure was. I had been there for a while... Hence... Big number!
