Upcoming birthday

Nov 27, 2006 14:22

This is just a heads-up for anyone who might be interested. My birthday is in about a week (Wed Dec 6); my age will be x ≡ 8 (mod 10). (Hey, if I have to suffer through modular arithmetic, I can at least inflict a bit of that suffering on others too ( Read more... )

... my age will be x ≡ 8 (mod 10).

But where's the rest of the equation? :) Actually, since I don't know modular arithmetic, maybe that is the rest of the equation!

I'm coming into this conversation a little late, since I just saw this post a few minutes ago, so if you already have a place and time picked out by now, hopefully I can still participate. It sounds like it will be taking place this week. Please let me know when, and I hope I can make it!

Oh, and I sent you an invitation last night to my birthday party. I hope you and jadine can make it.

Actually, that is the rest of the equation. (X, my age, is congruent (modulo 10) to 8. As for what that actually *means*, well, that's where the fun comes in. ;) )

I will be announcing time/location later this afternoon, but the plan is this Wed evening at 7:30.

Unfortunately, we won't be able to make it to your party, but I hope you have a great time!
