What are the warning signs for diabetes? What tests do you monitor for signs of pre-diabetes? Blood glucose level?

I looked up my recent lab tests (OHSU has a cool online system). These were all in the mid-morning, probably after a minimal breakfast.
10/15/10 GLUCOSE, PLASMA (LAB) 94 mg/dL
10/9/10 GLUCOSE, PLASMA (LAB) 121 mg/dL - this was during my repeat vomiting/kidney stone if that matters
4/9/09 GLUCOSE, PLASMA (LAB) 99 mg/dL

I'm physically inactive, take medication for high blood pressure and cholesterol, am Asian, have BMI 27. No family history of diabetes, well my grandfather developed it but he was 95 y/o. I don't think I consume much HFCS - don't have sodas, pastries, sweets, chips, hardly any processed foods actually.

Not sure why I'm anxious about this, but I figured I should pay attention.
