Just a little side story, regarding "Numbers".
My childhood friend got killed on February 22. Many years ago.
We were SO close. More like sisters, twins even. Always together, always laughing, on the phone with each other, if not together. We always said we'd sill be laughing when sitting together in rocking chairs as old grand mas..
So she got killed on 2-22.
Even though it has now been many years, to this day I ALWAYS see "222" everywhere and all the times. I can wake up in the middle of the night and look at the clock, its 2:22 am. I'm driving in the car and just so happen to look at the clock. Its 2:22 pm. I can be at some office and look at the wall LED clock. 2:22 pm. Not always clocks, either, its just the combination of 3 "2's".
I see those numbers all the time. I don't think I'm just making myself look at a clock because its that time, because I can wake up out of deep sleep and there it is. And every time I see it, I think of her. That's why I never miss the anniversary of her death. That date is burned into my brain.
