Verily verily

It is currently 12:21 on April Fools day. I wonder if anyone remembers? Google did, they have a Pokemon (gotta catch'em all) game on their google maps. It's pretty spiffy. I'm drinking cold tea right now, and sitting at a desk covered in sticky notes, equipment that needs to be repaired, and a water bottle filled with now-cold water (originally intended to refill my tea). ...Sorry about the pause, I was taking care of one of my teachers. He wanted a monitoring program installed on his computer. I would like to set up another murder mystery night soon, but seem to lack the energy to plan it all out. Some creative ideas are always welcome. :) I'm honestly not sure anyone follows this blog with the exception of Otter :) And I know you stay very busy. I am seriously thinking about finding a hot tub to sit in tonight, and chill out in. Mmm, that sounds nice! I will get off early today, and have extra time to goof around and play, hooray! I have been self-teaching myself calculus, or rather the introduction at least. I should like to retain that level of mathematics, but without practice it can become challenging. We all know how that goes. My friend Mouse is writing her first book, and nearing the 3/4 point of her first draft. We had a sword fight the other day to act out a scene, it was exciting (rather hard to hold a sword with paws, but I managed it somehow)! This weekend a new movie comes out in theaters; captain america: rise of the winter soldier. Perhaps not my favorite movie, but an excuse to go out on a date, and/or with friends as well. Now, where was I? Ah yes, April Fools day. It can be an interesting day to write a glob (ahem blog), or an interesting day for other significant events to take place as well. We may rightly expect skepticism to an idea or thought we announce upon this day, but it can also make things very fun and exciting!

As an aside, to those of you who may read this, I have a friend who may be in need of some prayer. Nothing specific, just the general (direction, economy, comfort) kind of prayer. You may feel free to inquire further if you wish.

I believe we have all the important things out of the way (that I can think of at least). Feel free to post, ask questions, inquire, etc.

And because this is a math-ish forum, here is your thought for the day:
There is one kind of triangle whose angles may form more than 180 degrees: a triangle imposed upon a sphere. To visualize this, think of america on the globe. Draw the largest triangle which will fit into the contiguous 48 states, and measure the angles on a globe. the angles will extend to more than 180 degrees, depending on the size of the globe. This is called non-Euclidean Geometry.

Woof.
