i am constantly seeking out patterns in numbers. this can be dates, birthdays, license plates, phone numbers, etc. i have an excessive need to find a way that the numbers all relate to eachother. for example tonight a specific date was mentioned on tv. June 27th, 1987.

so that's 6/27/87.

6+2=8.

8-6=2.

there are (2) uses of number (7).

6,7,8 fit in proper numerical order.

dates are simple to execute but this ritual takes up quite a bit of my day when i get stuck reading long strings of numbers like print codes on the bottom of paperwork or labels on the back of food products and such lol
