Could you repaste your data using dput() so we can see exactly what we are working with here.
As things stand currently, I can't tell why it doesn't suffice to just combine the dates and times into POSIX objects and subtract them all from the first row. For more information on that approach, try ?as.POSIXct from the base package.
