Happy PI day.

(And happy birthday to Al, too.)

Speaking of numbers: I gave my cell phone number recently to a friend, and as she wrote it down she said "ooo -- nice color". Turns out she's synaesthesiac -- for her numbers and letters are each associated with a unique color, and in combination they create a unique hue.

For the next 15 or 20 minutes I quizzed her on the color of people we knew in common -- turns out I'm mostly an earthy, reddish brown with flares of red and some specks of green.

Who knew?
