This here cat has finally found something to like about trigonometry: triangles! I actually remember some of this stuff from high school, and that was
thirty some years ago, y'all. What's not to like besides highly annoying, brain-contorting and synapse-malfunction-inducing
word problems? We have straightforward formulas! Numbers that make sense! And we can use a calculator and finally set aside "exact values"! Fun stuff. (
Did I say that?? Shhh!!!!)
Today's homework was such a relief after the odious brain torture caused by overexposure to trigonometric angles, establishing identities, graph transformations involving complex inverted functions, and other sinusoidal hideousness that Miz Minka thinks there's hope for her non-math brain after all.

Not that I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief: I still have about 20 or so
word problems* to get through before the next quiz, meh... I have my first mid-term behind me, with a passing grade, which is all I can hope for at this point! (
PLEASE, don't make me take this class again...) And another one of my classes has a HUGE term paper due in ten days, so I have to get busy. IOW: still no blogging, although I miss it something awful. Pictures are piling up on my camera, and ideas for posts are loitering around the lonely writing hallways of my brain. Alas, a body needs sleep too.

I like narratives. Just not the math-related kind. :P
