You have a lucky number I do


    What is it?

Nine  Yours

Eight.

I think if I asked our contemporaries wha their lucky number favourite was theyd all give me a single-digit number

Zero to nine

Zero?

A legit placeholder  Legit lucky number

There is that.

Jah

      An given tha so many of us I believe  chose one digit numbers  you can imagine my amazement when both my daughters chose doubledigits  the eldest fourteen  youngest twentyone

I asked them separately apart

I was gobsmacked

                        Yet the more I thought about it I coud legitimise zero to twelve  Thereby three double-digit numbers are included an open the door to double-digit numbers in excess of twelve tha I had excluded hadnt ever considered before

    Did that ease your mind?

Curious

                Eased
Jah

    Why twelve?

Throwin dice  Craps

                         While zero an one are neglected snakeeyes doublesixes two twelve are legit

I hadn’t thought of that.

Until I dug in I hadnt either

I reached out to my girls apologised for rollin my eyes when they shared their numbers with me

You apologized about that? A small matter.

Of course I did

                  I was inappropriate   Sardonic  mocking  cynical

Sardonic?

            That’s an awfully strong reaction.

They displaced a longheld concept
                                       Concept correct      Longheld belief
I was wrong

I can admit I can apologise when I am wrong

Frankly, I don’t know that was worth an apology.

Doesnt matter whaya think does it

 

    No. I suppose not.


Wanna change your favourite number from eight
No.

         Your nine?

Hell no
