Clocks are plotting against me

Speaking of the Twilight Zone and clocks, last night I saw an episode
that I hadn't seen before (and when's the last time that happened?),
about an old man who could continue to stay alive as long as he kept his
grandfather clock wound up. If he let it wind down, then he would die.
Except that in the end, it did wind down and he ended up not dying. It
starred Ed Wynn.

on-the-wall clock, I don't see how it could have been set back
without my doing it. However, the bedroom clock has little control
buttons on top, and it's all too easy for a kitty to sit on the
clock and change the time. OK, that explanation makes sense, right?

Then I log onto the computer, and it says... 4pm. WTF?? So I check
the time on the server I'm logged into (remote server at sonic.net),
it says 3pm.

Clocks are trying to drive me insane.

I think your first theory is correct. They're trying to gaslight
you. :-)

And what a great old film that was!

I seem to remember that one.
BTW, they have a Twiglight Zone ringtone for cellphones.
Too bad it won't work on my pre-paid one.
I have to renew my ID card before it expires in about a week.
What happens if I don't renew it...will 'I' expire? LOL

Finally, I figured it out. The bedroom clock was indeed changed by
a cat. If a kitty sits or steps on the "hour" button, the time
will move forward by hours.

And the computer clock was automatically set forward an hour
because it thinks this is the "spring forward" weekend (for
Daylight Savings). It was all a diabolical coincidence.

I'm glad it wasn't 4:00 - I have to get to the pet store before
they close and buy my girls their Wellness - and visit Everett!
