numbers are our friends

I admit I'm something of a numbers nerd.  I enjoy making up number riddles like 'which three single digit numbers get the same answer when added or multiplied?'  I remember the thrill I felt as a child when I figured out that each of the answers in the 9s table (9 x 1 through 9 x 10) adds up to nine.  I sometimes put myself to sleep reciting the Fibonacci Sequence.  So you can imagine how excited I was to learn that today is the first day in a ten day sequence of dates that are palendromes.  9-10-19, 9-11-19, 9-12-19 and so forth.  I knew about palendromes of course - words that are the same backwards and forwards like racecar and kayak, or, my favorite, mom, but I never considered the possibility of palendrome numbers. I think the next series of palendrome numbers won't come until February of next year, and then only if you write the month as 02 and only use single digit days.  December of 2021 also only works with single digit days.  This month's sequence is definitely the most satisfying.  After 2021 I'm thinking it's a long dry stretch before another palendrome series of dates.
