Same here. But the point on expectations is crucial. Are you having one of those off days? Are you sick? Stresssed? Was it a high GI meal? Bad set? Bad absorption? Was there a new supernova? More often than not, correcting will send me low. One has to spend lots of time learning how they behave to get a good feel for what best to do.
