Every day I am entertained by the quantity of cool number series I encounter. The magic can happen anywhere – license plates, zip codes, digits on the clock – anywhere numerals converge.

If it’s close, I’ll also sit and watch the clock until it hits 11:11. My really good friends call or email me at 11:11 to make sure I don’t miss the experience. Now that is love! It’s actually a bit contagious, my love of numbers, and now that you have read this, I will go ahead and say it: you will forever be aware of the 11:11’s that cross your path. YOU ARE WELCOME!
In celebration of the dearly anticipated date, 11-11-11, we at CrinkledNose.com are hosting the numerical party of the century. As part of our countdown, we started our celebration on 11-10, complete with chili, cheesecake, and my own awesome brownies (pictured above)! (We didn’t want to wait until the last minute.) We’re blowing it out, Times Square ball-drop style, when the time hits 11:11:11 on 11-11-11.
You see, I’ve been waiting a long time for this day! I see the time 11:11 every day, but to get to see it on the day of, well that’s a bit overwhelming for someone like me.
And I really appreciate the excitement and enthusiasm of all my co-workers hosting the festivities, mostly on my behalf. It’s a special holiday for me, and even though we at CrinkledNose don’t have a holiday photo card for a single day that happens once every hundred years, what other photo greeting card company has a fraction of the groovy coolness to say, “I love you, Vicki,” by turning carrots and celery into number 11’s on a paper plate?
Maybe next century we’ll have a “Happy 11-11-11 Day” CrinkledNose card. Until then, wishing you good numbers, and a happy 11-11-11, from my house to yours.
