Eleven-eleven

[chez_jae]

I hate this day.  Friday the Thirteenth?  I laugh at it, but November Eleventh?  *shudders*

I'm what is known as an Elevener, meaning I see eleven-eleven all the time, whether it's on the clock, the calendar, in phone numbers, addresses, license plates...Heck, I even hear it all over.  Familiar with the song Konstantine?  "I always catch the clock/It's 11:11"  Yeah. 

The funny thing is, I go to great lengths to avoid seeing the clock at 11:11, so the number sneaks up on me in devious ways.  I wish I could have seen the look on my face one day at Walmart when my change was $11.11.  I once owed $11.11 on an Avon order, and I made the check out for $11.12.  Seriously.  I couldn't face it in my check register.   My icon is from an actual photo I took during an excursion with my mother.  *sighs*

I could go on and on, but I won't bore you with my blather.  Do any of you have an eleven-eleven story to share?
