I have been a nerd about numbers for my entire life. When I was a child, I obsessively counted things and seemed to attach different emotions to various numbers. For example, even numbers cause me anxiety while odd numbers make me feel calmer. I have never figured out the reason but here I am in my 50s still being a great big number nerd. I also still obsessively count things. The counting began early and came in handy when I was a competitive swimmer. I counted every stroke for every lap that I swam. The counting not only made the workouts more interesting but I also couldn’t see that well…
