A coworker of mine was writing the date on something yesterday. He turns and looks at me and says "What's today's date?"
I responded, "3/14. It's Pi day."
He looked at me like I'm crazy and I said, "You know, like in geometry? 3.14...."
He and my boss both look at me with blank stares.
As I walked away I said, 'And thus concludes the mystery of why Amanda was dateless in high school."

Problems With Song Titles
I was having a bad day (well, days to be honest) a couple days back. And not the kind that could be fixed with a pint of ice cream. No, my friends, the solution probably lay in a shot of whiskey. Or 12.
But (don't worry Mom) I wisely chose not to go that route. Instead, I decided to turn on my iPod on the way home and sing along. Loudly. To this song. It happens to be one of my favorites.
I contemplated posting a status update claiming there was nothing it couldn't fix. I even almost titled the blog this. Until I realized that it may be misunderstood.
Why? The title of the song is "Gunpowder and Lead."
Somehow I thought posting a status update that said, "There's nothing Gunpowder and Lead can't fix" may not go over so well.
Maybe it's just me.
But probably not.
