As we hurtle towards Pi Day

As we hurtle towards Pi Day… Things are getting fast and furious as we head towards Thursday, but I thought Id take a tiny break to post a little something. Ive already had a lot of bleary eyed moments in the last few weeks (my eyes are actually pretty sore as I type this), which reminded me of the post I wrote a couple years ago (see below). As someone commented on Lydias recent post, around this time of year there are usually a bunch of pre-pi-day posts with various thoughts, comments, and advice before the decisions go out. Lydias is one such post that is worth a read. Ive collected a few others from over the years that I think are worth perusing, too (though it is by no means an exhaustive list): Me, March 16, 2011: Bleary-eyed David duKor-Jackson, March 13, 2012: To whom much is given Lydia K. 14, March 8, 2012: As We Approach Decision Day Anna H. 14, March 10, 2011: I Challenge You Chris M. 12, March 13, 2010: Decisions, Decisions I will admit this may not qualify as a real post as it is essentially a post of other posts, but I hope it provides some good perspective and interesting reading for those of you waiting for Pi Day. As mentioned in the posts above: dont panic, dream big, explore the internet, dont obsess, solve some puzzles, look at cute cats, thank people, and go relax and have some fun while you wait! Feel free to comment and share your favorite blog posts below too. [Disclaimer: if you have questions, probably best not to ask them here, as I probably wont be able to respond to much of anything in the next 42 hours or so as we wrap everything up with decisions; apologies in advance!] Okay, its 11pm and I havent eaten dinner yet. Time to go get some food
