I’m an 1111 freak.
“What’s 1111?” I hear you say? (if you didn’t just say that, you’re either really cool because you already heard about 1111, or you’re not very interested in what I blog about, and that in itself can be kind of cool, but it gets old very quick)
1111 is the phenomenon where you notice 11:11 on clocks, emails, tickets, or just about anywhere. Some people feel a pull to actually look at the clock for some reason and when they do, it shows 11:11. Or they just glance at the clock randomly, but more often than not, it happens to be 11:11. After the second or third time, you start thinking it’s more than just a coincidence.
A couple of years ago, I confided in my wife what was happening to me. I didn’t want her to think I was crazy, but I also didn’t want to keep it a secret any longer. I hadn’t heard of any “phenomenon” or “craze” whatsoever. I just thought it was a weird coincidence.
A few weeks later, she was at a local bookstore that caters to the metaphysical, astrological and general ethereal universalityness and asked the clerk if she had heard of anything like it. Another customer in the store overheard her query and pointed her to a book about 11:11. She picked it up for me and I proceeded to read up on how I wasn’t the only one who was seeing this in a digital form in one way or another
Always one to share, I decided to make a website about it last year but I’ve let it sit, always being pulled in other directions or forgetting about it. I figured if this really is a phenomenon that’s sweeping the world, I might as well get on the front end of it. Plus, since it isn’t a very active site, I can practice my Wordpress Upgrade skillz (I just upgraded it to WP 2.6.1).
I just wrote my first real story there and so I suppose today is a “guest post” day for me. I owe guest posts to about five people from my whalliversary earlier this summer, so I want you to know I haven’t forgotten!
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to go view that post, give me your thoughts, and also give me feedback about the look and feel of the site. Suggestions welcome!
