Update

Apparently I'm not alone in my love of 3.3.09, since it was declared Square Root Day - mathletes rejoice!

This must stem from all that Square One/Mathnet watching as a child. "My name's Monday, and I'm a mathematician..."

I am Rain Man

Add this to my list of idiosyncrasies: I love when I write out a date and it makes arithmetical sense to me; when there's some random harmony to the digits. For example, today: I wrote 3.3.09 = 3x3=9 OR my wedding date 11.4.06 = 1+1+4 = 6. There's just something soothing about this for me. Something good should happen on these days. More often than not, they're totally forgettable, but here's to hoping!
