One of the suggestions I found during my exhaustive two second search on Google regarding why my blood sugar is so stinking high when I wake up, was to get up between two and three am and take a reading.
Apparently there are two things that can happen to cause the high readings in the morning - and I've totally forgotten what they're called because... two thirty in the morning - but one of the ways you tell them apart is whether or not you've got a high reading between two and three am. A high reading after a normal dinner hour means... something, and the lower reading (mine was 110 just now, and a whopping 145 when I woke up yesterday morning) means that your body seems to be kicking things into high gear around four am/whatever time you normally start to wake up in and effort to help you get up and out of bed and moving.
Honestly, I can't remember the details right now. However, I thought that since I'm supposed to be making an appointment to see New!Doctor Asshat in the next few weeks, it would probably be helpful if I show up with this list of two thirty readings so that he doesn't send me home with orders to take two thirty readings. Sort of "haha, I already thought of that because I am smart enough to use the power of the Google!" kind of thing.
Anyway, the point of all that is that it's very early in the morning and while I would very much like to be back in bed, I'm not because my alarm went off at two thirty and then I had to make myself bleed and now I'm all awake.
I tried futzing about on the internet, but that did nothing for me this morning since it all looks pretty much the same as when I left it at bed time last night.
Screw it. I'll go back to bed and poke the husband until he stops snoring and try to pass out. With any luck, that should work. I hope.
