It happens every night, from 9 pm to 10 pm, what's wrong with me
At 9 oclock every night, it happens. I'll be looking at my phone, or the computer, or the clock, and a number will show up that I recognize, with a little jolt. Then another. And another. This goes on for an hour, and stops. And recurs the next night. And the next. I can't stop it.
Here are the numbers. 9:01 9:04 9:06 9:11 9:12 9:14 9:16 9:17 9:18 9:24 9:34 9:35 9:44 And so on. Until 9:59 Diagnosis? What's the cure?

Say to yourself (quietly so people don't think you're mad or somethin') NO NO NO
Mind you I often see the time as being 9:11 and I like it. I've been worrying about something recently and I've put a ban on worrying about it between 9pm and 9am so I get some sleep. Sounds odd but it works for me. |

Not long ago I woke up and in my groggy state was totally confused to see my name spelled out in sideways letters. I think it was around 3:37 a.m.

No 9:15, 9:28, 9:30, 9:31 and 9:51? Btw, it doesn't happen in the morning?

Back in the olden days right after I ordered my 1974 914 2.0 the wait for it to come in was months and pure torture to my young mind. Digital watches had just come out and were hundreds of dollars and were impossible to read outside. Just tiny red numbers on a black background. I wanted one but I had to settle for a cool analog watch that had an alarm feature. I had it set for 9:14 AM and I called the dealer every day asking if my car was coming in and the lying bastards would say "It will be tomorrow" so I called them the next day. The phone number was 277-1700. Finally I got to pick up my new baby on Friday the 13th. 9-13-74. It would have been cooler to get in on 9-14-74 but that was a Saturday. I brought it back in to the dealer for the first oil change recommended by owner's manual on Monday morning. 600 miles in one weekend and I was just driving around having fun, no road trips.

If you see 9:62, seek medical attention.

I have the same problem, but it's worse. because here in Canada we have metric time, so I'll often see 9:64, 9:65, 9:86, 9:87, 9:96, 9:97 and 9:91pm.
