Nineteen and other coincidences...

[jayson]

a furniture store named Cort's

There's one of those here as well. The one I always see is directly next door to a gun range. Cort? Guns? Hmmm.

[idk, my bff jill?]

I went to the movie theater yesterday to watch Taken, and naturally, having drunk quite a bit of iced tea and Coca Cola during the movie, I had to pee when it was over.
When I went into the restroom stall, I looked at the toilet paper dispenser and saw there was a sticker with the number 19 stuck to it.
After I saw it, I peed 19 times and heard the Twilight Zone intro playing in the background.

It was an awkward situation for everyone in the restroom.

Ah i remembered.

I also a Furniture store by my school named Cort. I also live fairly close to a building with the word Gilead written on it. I'm not sure where it is, or what it's for. I haven't seen in since i first made that connection...

Some days ago I saw a guy on the metro who was reading W&G. My eyes almost jumped out when I noticed what he had been reading. I wanted to go to him and tell him it's the book of my life but he was listen to some music and he seemed like being in another universe so I couldn't move my legs to go to him.
Anyway he almost missed his stop because he get lost in the book so much.

It's quite strange that it happened to me twice in my life that I saw strangers reading DT books and both happened on the same metro line in the metro carriage.

Today, while I was reading the final book on my way to English class

Spoiler:

I'm at the part where Eddie and Roland are being flung about, and... Chassit?

When I went to my classroom, on my desk, I saw a ring.
It had turtles on it =P 7 turtles to be exact. They're in pairs, facing each other, save for one, who's staring at the 'butt' of another turtle.
Not a huge coincidence, but made me chuckle inside just the same.

Haha...today i took a test for my Spanish class. The test packet number i got was 19.

And tomorrow i'm taking a test in history over chapter 19. ^^

This is also my 19th post.

About 4 years ago, I was re-reading The Gunslinger, and I was at the part where the Man in Black is talking to Roland, and Roland is cooking a rabbit but won't eat it, says something about not wanting enchanted meat.

Right at this moment, my wife screamed from the other room, "David, it's a rabbit!"

I was like, ????????

Felt surreal.

I go in the living room, and the cat has killed a rabbit, brought it in through the doggie door and has dropped it in this wooden letter box we kept papers in.

Just a coincidence of course, but still, it spooked me pretty good.

I have a car that hasn't worked since i got it, so i've never driven it, and it hasn't been driven at all for lord knows how long.

Yesterday, just for kicks and giggles, i went out and sat in my car for the first time in months, just because i felt like it, and i wanted to see if maybe it would start. It didn't, but i happened to look at the number of miles it had.

2009119. Turned a boring day full of babysitting into a day of 19.

2 million miles?!? Holy ape shit!!!

No wonder the thing won't start. The poor car is tired.

My favorite coincidence was when I started seeing DT related things on my trips back on forwarth to school. There was a side street I noticed named Blaine Lane (ugg, it rhymes!), a furniture store named Cort's ... (probably just 'Furniture' haha). But I think the coolest one, that took me by suprise was the "weigh station" in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin. It's a weigh-in thing for semi's I believe, but it's set so far back from the road and overgrown that it looks like an abandoned shack. It's really creepy to drive past at night. I have seen the last name Delgado all over the place in whitewater(granted, it's probably just a popular name in the area, but still).

But the biggest one that makes me feel marked, like Ka-Shume up there ^^

Though I do feel a trifle unspecial now that I am no longer 19....(turned 20 yesterday, big sigh).

Okay, that's all for now!!

I dont have any coincidents with u, but i also live in southern WI. Just weird seeing someone type whitewater

I have a job where random people email me. Yesterday I got emails from email adresses starting in gunslinger@xxx, and roland_d@xxx.

And after checking my computer, I took 19 calls yesterday

Unrelated, i once answered the phone at work and the guy on the other end said "Hello, my name is Robert Gray." I nearly filled my pants, as Roland would say.

[Bumbler19]

I swear.. literally every time I look at a clock, its X:19 or the time adds up to 19

For example, just now, I look at the clock and its 9:37 7+3+9 = 19
