Why is Post Number #627 important to me?
It's my all-time favorite number.
Why, you ask?
When I was five, I had to spend five days at the hospital due to an allergic reaction to peanuts.
I stayed in room 627.
For five days, the nurses spoke of how cute I was (and I liked them, too!), I walked around the 6th floor over and over and over again counting (great way to learn numerical skills!), and I got lots of cards and my very own Mickey Mouse Watch!
I also remember, upon coming home, I found out my older brother and sister played Rook together during my absence, and I was none too happy about missing the games!
Until my deviated septum surgery in 2003 and shoulder surgery in 2004, that had been the only hospital stay I had had.
And, for some reason, the legacy of that first stay has always been that that's where I met my favorite number.....
LONG LIVE 627!!!!
