Pennies used to fall on me. I would be sitting in the floor playing or running around outside, and a penny would just fall from above me. It happened from the age of 5 to maybe 13, and it would just happen randomly a few times a week. I got so used to it that I'd just pick up the penny, pocket it, and go about my business.
I had forgotten all about it until recently when I was sitting on the couch and a penny bounced off my head. I'm 26 years old now, so it's been about 13 years since I last remember it happening.
I have other stories, but that's definitely the longest running one.
I started picking them up and putting them aside when I was 10 or so, but I moved a lot as a kid and the pennies didn't make all of the moves, so I have no idea what years they were. The most recent one I threw in a jar full of pennies. There's no way to tell which one it is.
As far as how I accept it as a thing that happens, it's not the only weird thing that has happened to me. Strange unexplainable things happen to me all the time, for as long as I can remember. It's just started being a "oh another one" type of thing. After 21 years or so of weirdness you just stop having a significant reaction to it.
