This is weird. Well, it seems weird to me. You tell me . . does it seem weird to you or, am I weird?
We went to Walmart . . this could have been any day this week because we seem to go to Walmart E.V.E.R.Y. day, but it happened to be today. Vince needed distilled water for cleaning his CPAP . . his old CPAP . . not his new one because he still doesn’t have a new one. He took his old one in and got it re-set or whatever you call it when they set it according to the latest titration.
So, we went to Walmart. I said . . I’ll just wait in the car. I was waiting in the car, minding my own business when I noticed something strange.
Inspection Sticker
Our inspection sticker expires in August.
Inspection Sticker
The car across and to our left . . theirs expires in September.
Inspection Sticker
The car directly across from us . . theirs expires in October.
Yep . . you guessed it . .
Inspection Sticker
It’s a bad picture but the car across and to the right from us, theirs expires in November. This one is really hard to see but there was a guy in the vehicle next to it and he was looking at me like . . what are you doing? So, I didn’t want to get out, walk up closer and take a picture. Heck . . I should have just so I could have seen the date on HIS inspection sticker.
What are the chances??
But wait . . it gets better. One of the cars left and the car that pulled in . . theirs expires in December. By now, Vince was back in the car. I was saying “Wait! I have to get a picture of that inspection sticker!”
Can’t See It!
It’s that red truck. You can’t see it . . thanks Vince. You totally ruined my blog post! Everybody be mad at Vince! 🙂
But, really . . what are the chances of having an 8, a 9, a 10 and an 11 and then a 12 pulling up . . all lined up there in one spot?
Seriously, when sitting in the car in the Walmart parking lot while Vince, the never-gets-tired-of-shopping-husband, is shopping and I didn’t have my knitting, I have to entertain myself somehow. I thought it was pretty neat.
Carolyn says
That is so cool, I love finding things like that!
Valerie Zagami says
I think that was an unlikely coincidence for sure. Sometimes the parking lot is more entertaining than the store!
Judy D in WA says
Wait, you didn’t have your knitting? Were you abducted? 😉 I love numbers!
Amy (Waunaknit) says
You crack me up!
DonnainKS says
DITTO! Husband too! Thanks.

Not entirely the same but there was a period of time when I constantly looked at the clock and it was 11:11. I kept thinking ‘something’s going to happen with the number 11 in it’. If so, don’t think it’s happened yet.
dezertsuz says
LOL, it IS interesting, and I’d guess pretty small chance of that happening!
Carolyn says
Mine expires in June! …it’s an annual thing. My husband’s is good for two years! That irritates the living daylights out of me.

Nelle Coursey says

My mother was always noticing things like that, but then she always moo-ed whenever she saw a cow and made words out of license plate letters too. She was living on the not-so-normal side of the family……..

I keep magazines in the car for those times one of us stays in the car. and these are the things I notice so no you are not weird.
Karen Sutton says
I was driving close to home and the car in front of me had the same license plate number as me with one change – my reads ss3-sss and the other car was ss2-sss. Never seen that before.
Beth in AZ says
And we NEVER get credit for noticing those things either! Harumph!
