It needn't to make this comparison in every 0.5 seconds.
Calculate how long to sleep and ask that from the pc.


import time
b = '20:00:00'

(bhour, bmin, bsec) = b.split(':')
bsec = int(bsec) + int(bmin)*60 + int(bhour)*360

while True:
    act = time.localtime()
    actsec = act.tm_sec + act.tm_min*60 + act.tm_hour*360
    wait = bsec - actsec
    if wait < 0:
        wait += 360*24 # it will be tomorrow
    time.sleep(wait)
    print 'I am doing!'
    break
