13. "instantly calculate the day of the week"

My dad could do that and he wasn't autistic in any behavioral way at all. Once, when I was very young, this stood out to me and I asked him how he was able to do that. He tried to explain it to me. It had something to do with "seeing it in his mind" and he had a few "anchor" dates from which he could quickly figure out the day of the week. That explanation wasn't enough for me to comprehend the detail of what he was talking about. He said he didn't know how to further explain it. He's gone now, so I guess I'll never know! Maybe his genes are what gave me my extraordinary concept of mathematics. From a very young age, even pre-school, I've always had a mental "number line" almost like a ruler with different "atmospheres" in different places as I mentally "look" along this "line." For example, the number 20 has its own "neighborhood" with the upper teens and lower 20's as "neighbors" with their own unique "atmosphere." OMG! I'm sounding like my dad trying to explain his day-of-week thing!!
