I have a thing for numbers.
I hear a number once and it’s imprinted in my head. I know the numbers of my major credit cards (including that extra 3 digits and expiration date). I know the account numbers of most of my bills (ie National Grid, Verizon). I know phone numbers and license plates.
But weirder still. I was going to the ATM the other day. I had an obnoxious sales person I couldn’t get off the phone and my kids were screaming. In the midst of this, I somehow forgot my pin number. Completely and totally blank. Many four digit numbers were coming to mind, but I knew, without a doubt, that none of them were correct.
I’ve never had a moment like that.
I have a new pin number now, wonder how long until I remember the old one? Probably the first time I drive up to the atm!
