My car's odometer hit 123,456 miles on a Tuesday drive home

It felt like a strange little wink from the universe, seeing all those numbers line up. I was on Route 9, just past the old diner, when it clicked over. Has anyone else had a number pop up that felt too perfect to be random?

My microwave timer hit 0:00 right as my favorite song ended last night, felt like a tiny concert just for me.

Remember my buddy's old truck? He called me freaking out because the trip meter read 777.7 miles exactly as he pulled into his own driveway. He said the gas gauge was also on the seventh line, and the clock said 7:17. He just sat there for a minute laughing, said it felt like the truck was giving him a high-five for finally making it home after a long day.

Saw a thing once about how our brains are wired to spot patterns like that, @the_karen. Your buddy's truck was definitely throwing him a party.
