My car's odometer hit 111,111 miles right as I passed the exit for my old high school
I was driving back from a meeting in Dayton, just on the highway, not really thinking. I glanced down and the numbers were all ones, which felt weird enough, but then I looked up and the green sign for my old school's exit was right there. I haven't been down that road in over a decade. Has anyone else had a number line up with a place like that, almost like a signpost?

Saw my old house number on a license plate right as I passed the street it's on. Freaked me out for a second, had to check the mirror to make sure it wasn't my dad driving behind me or something lol.

That would've spooked me too.

The license plate thing is wild but the dad part is what got me. @the_hannah you ever think about how weird it is that we assign so much meaning to random numbers? Like your brain just latched onto that house number and turned it into a whole ghost story in five seconds. I had a similar thing happen with an old apartment number on a mailbox once, felt like the universe was messing with me. But really it's just your memory playing tricks, nothing supernatural about it. Still made me look over my shoulder for a solid minute though.
