Ahhh Summer Vacation!

It is currently day 6 of summer vacation, it's raining and I am running out of things to do!

So far, I have booked a wedding venue, volunteered for a 5K, read a book at the pool, hosted a wedding shower, cut the grass, edged, replanted various plants, cooked (yep!), watched 7 episodes of Orange is the New Black on Netflix (I highly recommend it), completely tore apart and organized my room upstairs, booked a 2 week trip to Nicaragua for July and done exactly 2 loads of laundry.  What am I supposed to do now?

I really wish it wasn't raining is the moral of this whole story!  Till another day here is a really cool dude!


Scott Flansberg is so good at math that Regis Philbin gave him the nickname “The Human Calculator!” His expertise is not limited to a couple types of functions either; he can add, subtract, multiply, divide, and even do square and cube roots - all with lightning-fast speed and precision. Scott holds a Guinness World Record for his ability because he was able to add the same number to itself more times within a period of 15 seconds than a person could do with a calculator. He claims that he would be even faster but for the fact that he cannot articulate the answers as quickly as he can calculate them in his head! 

Watch Scott beat the pants off a group of college math professors in this video:
