My alarm clock has been running ahead of itself. Bugs me. How does that happen? |
|
It is a battery operated one. Twice this week I have found in 1 hour or 2 hours ahead.:scared:

1. You have a magic clock. |
|
It gives you extra time.
I use my cellphone to wake me up, great alarm.

2. You probably sleepwalked across some time zones. |
|
Nothing supernatural about it at all.

5. It's astounding. Time is fleeting. Madness takes its toll. But listen closely. |

6. It did it again tonight even though I had just changed the battery. Too bad. I liked that alarm |

7. Do you have a cat? Maybe they wish to be fed earlier? |
|
But seriously, my cat walks on my clock and changes things all the time.

8. I must be that the clock stops for 11 hours or something. I tried a new battery |
|
but it still went all wonky on me. Time for a new clock.

9. These quartz clocks start running fast as they age. |
|
I had one that was gaining an hour every week.

11. You could sell the clock to someone who can't be on time anyway. |
|
A hour here and there wouldn't matter to them.

12. Or donate it to Goodwill. |
|
Most the clocks I've bought there run fast.

15. I got that. I just wondered how it ended up ahead. Last night I put a new battery in and it was |
|
behind. Time to get rid of the little bugger!
