I swear, I've been waiting for Wednesday all week, then it disappears. I don't know what happened!
So this post is late, but I am posting.
Numbers was the topic, because at the time I was thinking about them. You see, numbers don't really exist, they are just abstract ideas that happen to be incredibly useful. So everyone more or less agrees that the symbols we use will represent these universal ideas. But really, the idea of numbers breaks down to a couple of categories. The most basic being the idea of none, and the idea of not-none (at least 1). It then gets more complex by adding the idea of "more than one" (2 and greater). But two is a pretty easy idea to follow, as is three. Which is why we have plenty of words for 2 of a kind, and some for three, but fewer for 4 of a kind of item. And so one. Multiple births are an exception, because you just take the Greek or Latin root for the number and add "-tuplets". Also, in binary, the number we think of as "2" is represented by "1" and the number we think of as "1" is represented by "0". So there.
On a less complicated note, I spent over 6 hours in the hospital today. Uncle Pro (my mom's uncle, for those who don't know) had to have a procedure. Fortunately, it went VERY well, he got all fixed up and looked so much better afterward.
Have a great week all!

I know what you mean, I think that happened to me last week or a few weeks ago. My epic tale of travel and I didn't want to post on some one day and then I forgot on my day! It's not that we don't care it that we get busy.
