Happy Symmetrical Date Day!
Today, 01/11/10, is a very fine day indeed. The last symmetrical date day was 10/22/01. The next one will be 01/22/10. Following that, we have 02/11/20, 12/11/21, 03/11/30, 04/11/40, and each of the corresponding /22/ etc. Unless you write the day first then the month, in which case you have many more symmetrical date opportunities.
Today Hannah clearly said "all done" when she was done eating. It was a one-off kind of thing, but she's definitely trying.
Thanks to my cousin Heather for pointing out the 22nd's should be in there too. I was thinking a little binary when I left them out.

How weird to see the years written as "30" and "40," and furthermore weird to realize that I'll (hopefully) be alive to write those dates!!!
I agree. It is weird when you think about the 20's, but the first thing that pops into your head is flappers, when we're only 10 years away from the next 20's. At the turn of the next century, I wonder what our children and grandchildren will have to say about how we handled the 20's. It's also weird to think that our great-grandparents probably had a similar idea about the 20's, but they thought about the 1820's. I have no clue what the flapper and booze running equivalents for the 1820's are.
