clock stopped: 12:45 am

we have a clock in our crashpad that has begun stopping at 12:45am. we reset the time and it works fine until it gets to 12:45am again. it is like it has a mental block. while this may seem ho hum to most, i wonder if the universe is trying to tell me something? is this foreshadowing? it is funny because i didn't realize how often i check the time until the clock broke. insights welcome.

maybe there is a metaphor in the remedy to the clock situation. we brought it to the shop to be fixed and the man said it was the battery. our clock has a date display, and apparently the battery didn't have enough juice to change the date AND keep ticking as usual. hence the stopping close to the date change. maybe it is a lesson to conserve one's energy or to focus on one thing at a time or to recharge your batteries. the funny thing is that we had just changed the batteries but i guess the new batteries were old or disfunctional or just plain weak. i feel like this is one of those american beauty moments. look closer.
