It’s no small secret that I see patterns in numbers. I spent years trying to ignore it, and then decided I might as well find amusement in it — which meant I noticed numbers even more regularly. Then I took up running, and discovered that a lot of runners are also number nerds. In other words, most of my friends are enablers.
Saturday was no exception: I woke up at 6:07:08 a.m. on 9/10/11. Yes, that was planned. I did not, however, plan to look at the clock 6:07:08 p.m., when I happened to be out at happy hour with friends:
But the bigger numerical news is that, on 9/10/11, I cut 12 inches off my hair. It was actually more like 13+, because the ponytail the stylist lopped off for donation was 12 inches, and then the remaining hair was trimmed. Earlier in the day I tried (and failed) to take a couple last “before” shots:
And here is the hairdo:
On Sunday I went to my last Giants game of the season (sadness!), and took several of those enabler friends of mine:
I think that’s actually where the number nerdiness ends, though Sunday was the 10th anniversary of 9/11, which is its own numerical matter.
Other weekend happenings not mentioned above: not much running (refusing to think about that), a little gyming, a couple other good beverages, lovely weather in San Francisco, nearly burning out my clutch on the notorious California Street hill, and seeing “Little Shop of Horrors,” which thoroughly entertained me.
After four bridge-crossings, several miles walked and 189 miles driven, my weekend was over. I wonder what I’ll do at 7:08:09 on 10/11/12.
My goodness I didn’t recognize you girls in “normal” clothes! 😉
I love the new dew!!!
I’m with you — a complete number nerd!! You look great.
