Today I'm happy because the date is numerically cool.
02/02/04
It's both a square and a sum!
2 * 2 = 4
2 + 2 = 4
By my calculation, the last square date was 09/09/81, since 9 * 9 = 81. The next one will be 03/03/09, so you had better enjoy today. Square dates are rare.
Okay, it doesn't take much to make me happy.

I was thinking to myself today, while looking at the dates and muttering to myself that they weren't quite symmetric enough for me, that I couldn't wait for April 20. If we were in Europe, that would be 20-04-2004. Also cool.
Oooh. That is nice and symmetric. Symmetric dates please me.
I think 04/04/04 is nice too. I knew a kid born last year on 03/03/03, which I thought was the coolest birthday to get.
You are truly showing off your geekiness. I'm proud as I'm making the transition from engineer to lawyer as well.

BTW, "The Ming" is a nickname given to me. I wanted Ming the Merciless from Flash Gordon.
Nice to meet another engineer turning lawyer! Love the nickname, btw.
And yes, I am really, truly geeky at heart. I fully embrace it. I mean, square dates are really cool, aren't they? Doesn't everybody think so? ;)
My daugher's birthday is 02/03/01. Not quite as nice, but I like the sequence. (Happy Birthday, N.!)
Happy birthday to your daughter!
Today is cool too, btw: 02/03/04. Very nice symmetry there.
Lol. thats interestin.....yesterday while in class i looked at the date n thought it was interestin.....then i thought about wen all the numbers would be the same.....04/04/04 (im sure that one has crossed ur mind already)
Oy vey! Numbers. Math. They no compute in my pea brain.
T, you make-ith me sickith. Obviously, you've been gifted with a WHOLE strong brain. You can write (creative) AND do engineering equations and whatever you call 'em. But you're happy and that's good. I'd be happy, too, if I had a brain like you.
I'm tired. Me go now.
Andrea-eth, you maketh me laugheth. :)

From a fellow closeted geek,
