Pi Day 2015

What is this great idea of which I spoke? It came to Chuck during last week's Pi Day. He realized that in three short years it will be March 14, 2015...or 3/14/15...or (bear with me) 3.1415. Do you see? Maybe I should remind you that Pi is 3.1415...See it now? It's like regular Pi Day but much, much better.

And how could we, the most mathematically-minded couple I know, not do something? We can't not. We will. You're hearing it now so put it on your calendars: Pi Day Party at our house, March 14, 2015 at a to-be-determined time, but certainly spanning 9:26 (9, 2, 6 being the next digits in pi).

What will we do at this party? Well, celebrate Pi, of course! We'll have a pie-eating contest, calculate pi by throwing hot dogs, and maybe even have a contest wherein party guests will memorize and then recite pi to as many digits as possible. At 9:26 something big will happen, just not sure what that is, exactly. All the while we'll be eating all types of pie, including pizza pies. Does this not sound awesome?! Chuck and I are so excited about it. I'm already planning the shirts I'll make for it.

  2. Hahahahahaha! I LOVE it. I love that you are planning a party for the future. 3 years. Wow. I knew you were on top of it, but this is amazing! I think we'll still be here for it too! I'm excited! To jump on the bandwagon, I'm going to start planning the pie that I will make for it. Maybe in 3 short years I'll become a pie master and be able to bring something homemade! I'm also going to start re-memorizing pi digits. You guys are awesome.
