That’s right, not a fairy tale, a Tale Faery. A genuine hetero, cis Tale Faery. We’re rare.
It started with dragonflies on a magic summer day in Gainesville Florida. One of those 100+ degree, 100+% humidity (seriously, a clear blue sky supersaturated with humidity, a state of dew), my five-year-old daughter and I rode our bikes around a swamp, and I discovered what faeries are.

Okay, Dee Ann, why didn’t you just set the alarm for 30 minutes before you wanted to get up?
Marianne
I’m with your hubbie! Before I retired, I set my clocks thirty minutes ahead because it took me that long to wake up after the alarm sounded. When our kids would come to visit, the clock drove them crazy.
I’ve always wanted a grandmother clock, but our home’s too small. I settled for a small wall clock that rings with the Westminster Chime. Love it! But when our musician son spends the night, it drives him crazy if we forget to silence the chime.

Jen,
We’re working on getting the KitKat Clock his tail back.
Marianne
Michele,
Nope! The “happy” excuse is used a lot, because people don’t really know why they are doing this.
Oddly before WWII all the clocks in ads had the time 8:20.
And WHY would digital clocks read 10:10?
Marianne
I’m Behind the Times on this blog! Late!
I’m not up to the math, but I am worried about your KitKat clock. It needs it’s tail back!
You’re clocks are all smiling, Marianne.:-)
When I worked at the Disney Stores, we were told to set the clocks at 10:10 so they looked “happy.” LOL
But, I believe the reason they’re set that way for the ads is to show the logo, right?
And, sorry, but I’m soooo not trying the math! I’ve been up since 3 am.
What a fun blog! I love clocks too.
