27. I am not a monster!
I don't like rounded numbers. If I give an estimate of when I'll be done something, I am much more likely to say 11 minutes than 10.

I generally don't use an alarm clock, because I don't like to woken up. I really don't need them anyway, because I wake myself up before the appointed time, so I won't be surprised by the alarm.

When I do use an alarm, I only set it at numbers ending in 1, 3, 7 or 9. Zero and five are out, because they're just too common - everyone uses them.

I use a 7 or 9 number if I psychologically want to get up early. Using a 1 or 3 lets me sleep in.

I betcha you're really scared now.
