What time zone are you?

I realise some of you might not want to give away where they live, so what time do you live in?

Time Zones

Italy is GMT +1, but I think my heart is set on GMT 0, and my biological clock on GMT -5 (which is also EST, I believe?).

friends, random

Central Time Zone (GMT -6).

I live in New Orleans, in case you didn't know. ;)

8PM over there then. Reasonable time to be online. :)

GMT -5, US EST. XD It just hit 10 PM here. (2200 for the 24hr people.)

Ah! I knew I had it right on that EST thing!

You're definitely where my body thinks I was born... :)

I am in EST.

When I was in Italy I used to call my friends in the US as the sun was coming up (and I was heading home after a night out...) cause I figured it'd be around midnight and they'd be up, and they'd be like, are you crazy? What kind of life are you living over there? lol

also... I had a very poor understanding of how time zones shifted around and missed several trains and boats because I had no idea I had crossed into another time zone. Not. A. Clue.

But you'll be in GMT+8 in a little while, won't you?

Ahah! Sometimes I think we're spoiled, because Europe is one big playground time zone... just like China. ;)

American EST && GMT -5

Home, at last! :D

That icon is so American... it makes me smile.

I live in PST, which would be GMT -8.

You're where the Internet is! ^_^

On my Dashboard I have 4 clocks: London (just because), New York, Regina (my Canadian friend lives there), and Seattle. FFnet is wired on your time zone, so I always get confused as to when exactly I am posting/reviewing and such.

marmaladefever March 10 2010, 20:04:19 UTC

Huh, I guess I've never paid attention to the time of posting/reviewing on there, other than the date. I guess I'm not surprised, though. I'm from California, and lots of stuff goes on here.

silvia_elisa March 10 2010, 23:00:32 UTC

Cheeky! ;)

I usually don't either, but my friend and I have a nonstop flow on messages going on there (I guess we never found the time to switch to simple e-mails?); after a while I started noticing that my messages read 'sent xy AM' when I knew for sure that I had replied around xy PM!

How's the song? 'We've got more bounce in California...'?
