I think I first started being aware of it when I was 17 years old, the year was 1967, and the new 67 model cars awoke a passion in me for performance cars. The top performance engine in the Fords I loved was the 427 V8. I became a life long Mustang fan with my first look at the 67 Shelby GT500, and it has been my favorite Mustang model ever since.
My fascination with the number seven extends to all areas of my life, not just my car hobby. I'm happy when random chance puts a 7 in anything that comes my way. The area of town I live in is called "The Seven Hills Area". When we built this house, the only lot left was lot 27, and the elevation on this lot is 2770 ft. above sea level. The street number we live on has a 7 in it. The thermostat in our house is set at 77 degrees. My favorite steak sauce is 57 Sauce.
Ok, I think you get the idea, I like the number seven. Oh, by the way, I turn 67 this year.

I do not think it is strange, I think it is awesome! I have a thing for numbers, as well. I love that Caden's birthday has two fives, two zeros, and two ones-- 05/15/01. I wish Keilie would have been born on the 24th, so it could be 08/24/03, because 8 goes into 24 three times. Things like that. We should have planned a family reunion on 07/07/07!! I love to hear that we share a love of numbers, even if it is not in the exact same way. It is our quirks that make us endearing, I believe.
