Probabilities

Probabilities. 

Given that there are 60 minutes in every hour and that there are 2 hours between 2am and 4am (120 minutes), how likely is it that half the time that I wake up between 2 and 4am, the first thing I see is the time on the digital clock reading exactly 3:33am? Add to this that what wakes me up at 3:33 is my wife lightly shaking my right foot to get me up... only is not her. This has been going on for months. Take a sleeping aid, I'll sleep until 5 or 6 something. Without taking a sleeping aid I'll be awake between 2 and 4am. The  probability of waking up exactly at 3:33 on the clock is 1 chance in 120 minutes. But there it is... half the time is 3:33... over and over again. 
So to question this occurrence or what's better prescribed is a phenomenon, yields no answers, but only unanswered questions. Feels a bit supernatural... okay, more than a bit supernatural. Is some spirit, nature, or the universe trying to tell me something? This is entirely more than just a coincidence... completely unexplained, yet happening over and over again. Perhaps one day all will be revealed.
