Square Root Day

Because I'm a nerdy engineer (and proud of it!), I thought I'd take a break from the usual* content of Life According to Jenn and wish you a Happy Square Root Day (3/3/09). In all honesty, I think it should be perfect square day and have the true square root day be 9/3/03, but nobody else is calling it that. Perhaps this is wise--who wants to be a perfect square?

When I googled "square root day", I found this blog, which discusses holidays unknown to me before today. Did you know there's a Mole Day celebrated between 6:02 a.m. and 6:02 p.m. on October 23 every year? How cool is that? Or a Pi day, which occurs on March 14 every year? My favorite, though, would have to be Fibonacci day, which won't occur until 1/12/35. Be sure to mark your calendars for that one ... you won't want to miss it.

I apologize for the late notice about today's importance, but try to make the most of what's left of it--you won't have another opportunity to celebrate it for 7 full years (4/4/16)!

*I almost typed "regular content", but that implies a frequency of posting that I have not achieved in the last few weeks ever. Please bear with me, though ... there are thoughts rattling around inside my brain that will eventually make their way into coherent posts.
