A friend of the family was hiking in the Andes, half a world away from home, when he came upon a guy who looked exactly like him. Being spooked, they stopped, started talking, and realised they were both Swedish, and both called Denny. They went to a local pub to chat and bonded over both playing guitar. When it came time to order snacks, Denny pulled out his insulin shot, and explained he’s a diabetic. That’s when the other Denny pulled out his own insulin.

My grandma, whose name was Zona, passed away when I was in undergrad. The day of her funeral services, I drove to the chapel on my campus to pray a little before going across town to join my family. When I went to get into my car, I noticed that license place on the car in front of me was a vanity plate. It said, “Zona.”

I performed in a state choir with my genetic half brother who I’ve never met (we’re both donor conceived and I didn’t know his name until he showed up on 23andme).

When I was a teen, something awful happened to me by a teen boy I knew at a party at his house. In the years that past, every time I drove by that house, I felt sick. A few years ago, I told my therapist I hoped it would burn to the ground. A week later, a drunk driver drove their car THROUGH it. Literally. It had to be torn down.

My sisters and I were travelling to Scotland. Boarded the plane, there was a lady in my seat. The usual conversation ensued “excuse me, I believe you’re sitting in my seat” “no, she says this is my seat.” I said well my boarding pass says row blah seat blah. She said hers does too. I said my name is Arlene Blackwood. She said that’s my name. 👀👀👀 Like what the

I shared a berth on a ferry boat from London to Amsterdam with 2 guys from Philly. We hung out for a few days at a hostel, saw some museums, then went our separate ways. Four weeks later I’m in a hostel in the middle of the Swiss Alps that slept 6 to a room. My door opens and in walk the same two guys lol.

My mother and I were living over 3,000 miles apart (back when we used miles) I woke up at 3am and felt something had happened to my mum. I panicked. The phone rang 2 minutes later. It was my Mum. She woke up at the same time and thought that something bad had happened to me. We were always on the same wavelength though.

When I was a young child, my parents let me watch Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds because I wouldn’t stop begging them… I got so scared that I made my sister let me sleep in her bed with her that night. The following morning, I woke up to the sound of my sister screaming because a crow had flown into her bedroom through the open window, and it was flapping its wings right above us. She ran to get my parents and left me there, paralyzed by a level of fear I’d yet to experience.

I wanted to adopt a Treeing Walker Coonhound, which aren’t very common here, and my brother asked if we could name the new dog Finnegan and I said sure great name. We went to the pet adoption place where we’ve gotten two other dogs and there was one Treeing Walker Coonhound named Finnegan.

I once got stuck in NYC around Christmas en route to South Africa. I hadn’t packed any winter clothes & it was freezing. I went to Ralph Lauren & got some warmer clothes. I had a great time, one particularly lovely moment: sipping champagne across from the Plaza Hotel & staring out at it. On the eventual plane ride back home, I decided to watch Home Alone 2. In it, Kevin gets stuck in NYC & stays at the Plaza. Weirdly, I was wearing almost the exact same sweater & shirt he wears in the movie 😂

I met someone at a wedding who grew up in a town that I had lived in for two years as a kid. I told him that and he asked me where I grew up and then he said “No way, I lived THERE for two years as a kid.” We were the same age so I asked him where he went to school. Turns out we had been in the same classes at the same schools and knew all the same people. We had just swapped lives for 2 years and didn’t meet for 35 years.

Studied abroad in England & visited my roommates in Italy. Went to cinque terra and at the end of the day we sat down at the beach. For some reason I mentioned my siblings & the girl who sat in front of us turned around & said “Emily???”
It was the little sister of a girl I went to high school with. She heard me talk about my sibs & connected the dots. She was studying abroad in France & decided to do cinque terra in Italy the same wknd & we happened to sit at the same spot at the same time 🤯

Met this grocery checkout woman after HS she had graduated the year before me. 3 years later we are working together and are friends. After I changed jobs I lost track of her. Found her on facebook. Asked where she was. She said a small town in Minnesota. Happened to be the one I was born in. She's renting from my 8th grade math teacher. 🧐😳

Last Friday.
My father was scheduled for a doctors appt. I would have to cancel 2 yoga classes so I moved it.
My first class is usually taught at the club but for some reason they wanted a ZOOM class that day so I could teach from home.
That was the morning my dear dog suddenly passed away. I was home for it.

Worked for the Navy as a contractor in Norfolk, VA, but got offered a job at the Pentagon. Had a great boss, sad to leave him, but moved to DC. Flash forward four years. Got a job working at the Department of Energy. Was parking my car on L'Enfant Plaza next to the DOE building, and who should walk by? My old Navy boss, who had also just taken a job at the DOE... in the office next to mine.

I went to HS and was a co-worker with a boy in small town California. 7 years later I was driving past a field in NC and saw some men across the field and yelled at my husband to stop because it was guy from HS. Husband said no way you can recognize him from this distance but I walked across the field and it was him. 20 years later I walked into a 7/11 on Oahu and he was walking out.

One time we were on a family vacation and we were stuck in traffic on the interstate hundreds of miles from home and I happen to look over to the people in the car next to us and it happened to be our next door neighbors who we shared a driveway with. We both looked at each other with the most confused looks on our faces at first lol.

My sister and I went crystal shopping cuz we’re both witchy like that. I picked up a geode from a box in one end of the store, she picked up a geode from OUTSIDE in their outdoor section.
When we got home to show the family what we bought, we learned the 2 pieces of geodes fit together perfectly. I’m still shocked to this day and you CANNOT TELL ME ancient rocks don’t carry energies. ✨
