etc., etc.

dr. z. was happy with me today... that means i was moderately happy with math for the day too.

pizza seminar topic: "all about 1089"... i'll tell people more about the number than they care to know, including teaching them a fun game (to be read as little trick to baffle all their non-math friends), explaining to them an early paper by a famous mathematician whose work they've probably not read, and tell them about some of the latest in british experimental mathematics.... all thanks to 1089. that sounds exciting, right?

jogged again for quite a bit of my 5 mile trek around the neighborhood. last night was 2.27 miles jogged out of 5.1 miles total... tonight it was 3.05 miles jogged out of 5.1 miles total. i'm getting darn good at this game.
leigh comes with me on tuesdays though and she has a hard time keeping up with my walking speed so i'll have to go slower tomorrow. i probably won't aim to jog much more of it than that for a bit either. i'm just now getting to the point where i don't mind jogging past people i cross on the sidewalk instead of slowing down and walking when people are in my range of vision... i am not to the point that i'll start jogging along side the 2 MAJOR streets i take for awhile though... and i'm not endurance wise good enough to maintain a jog up the 3 big hills on my path.. other than the major streets and the 3 big hills though, that 3.05 is jogging all of the rest except for 2 blocks... go lara?

done rambling about nonsense.

tomorrow: class, playing more with this 1089 talk, and lots of other misc. studying. sounds like fun, right?

later dudes
