What's more current than the date?

It's Pi day.

I set an alarm to go off this morning at 9:26 am. If it had seconds, I'd have set it for :53

I mentioned that it's Pi day at the gym this morning (at 9:26, haha) and people looked at me like I was crazy.

I'll have to celebrate at 9:26 tonight. While re-watching Season 4 of GoT, I think.

I did not know it was Pi day. What's needed really, to celebrate in style is a Pi pie.

Well, it wasn't, in the UK. Because you write your dates more sensibly.
