In the Middle of the Night

I woke up. The house was still dark and quiet. I rolled over and looked at the clock.

I saw the bright-red, digital glow of 3:44.

In my half-awake, half-asleep, disoriented state, the numbers struck me. 344!

I sat straight up.

344! I'm 344! I need a correction dose!

Oh, wait, I don't have diabetes. That's not a meter. That's a clock! Doh!

I laughed at myself.

I nestled under the covers and went back to sleep.

  2. That is hilarious! I "see" things like that too when I see a radio station or clock with numbers. I always think about that being a BG number!
