Happy Pi Day!

Wow, it's already March 14th. Where has the year gone?! Since my blog started with my idea to memorize pi, how better to celebrate today than with an "ode" to pi, of sorts. Okay, I'll come clean, I didn't write it but I thought it was cute nonetheless:

Roses are Red, Violets are blue ... 3.141592
PI is a number that is mighty fine ... 653589
Practice this often until it sticks ... 79323846
Practice when you swim since there's nothing else to do ... 26433832
Let no one ignorant of geometry enter this door 79502884
Numbers rule the universe, Pythagoras made the decree ... 1971693

I also thought it would be fun to list out the digits I've learned so far and something about myself related to the number. Here goes:

3 - how many pets I have
1 - how many husbands I have (whew!)

2 - the number of days I'd like to work for the rest of the week...
8 - the time I like to go to bed to read, on a good night
8 - the number of yogourt cups in a full package (it's about me if I eat it, right?)
4 - the number of tattoos I'll probably have eventually
1 - the number of rings I wear
9 - my dog on the "cutness" scale. Okay, she's actually an 11, but 11 isn't in pi... I couldn't think of anything else for 9.

1 - my bus route number

Whew! Happy Pi Day, everyone!
