most of the time my blog posts are about my kids and the funny things they say and do. but as this is also a place for me to record things for posterity, i figured i'd write down this TRUE story from my birthday last week.
i have a few quirky ocd-like tendencies, and one of them is a mild obsession with numbers. i subconsciously count things (steps, the number of times a car alarm beeps, etc.) i have a good memory for numbers. and i LOVE it when i see "special" numbers on the clock or odometer, for example (i actually took a picture when the odometer got to 12345).
we have in our bedroom one of those projector clocks that shines the time and temperature on the ceiling. i play a little game with myself, trying to predict when the time and temperature will "match" and if i'm awake in the night (as i often am), i like to see it happen - for example, when it's 42.5 degrees at 4:25 am.
well, on my birthday morning, i got one better! firstly i had a great sleep and the boys only woke me once - at around midnight. but then - i woke up and looked at the clock, and it was 5:07! and the temperature was 57.2!! magic...
