Graduation is 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks, and 2 days from today! I think…
Counting back from May 11, 2013 yields the following:
2 years puts us at May 11, 2011
2 months – March 11, 2011
2 weeks – February 25, 2011
2 days – February 23, 2011, which is today!
Counting forward from today:
2 years – February 23, 2013
2 months – April 23, 2013
2 weeks – May 7, 2013
Leaving 4 days to get to May 11, 2013
Unless you count forward like this:
2 days – February 25, 2011
2 weeks – March 11, 2011
2 months – May 11, 2011
2 years – May 11, 2013
This makes one wonder what happens when you count back like this:
2 days – May 9, 2013
2 weeks – April 25, 2013
2 months – February 25, 2013
2 years – February 25, 2011
Leaving us 2 more days to get back to today!
While I wait for someone to enlighten me as to whatever obvious explanation there is for this discrepancy, I’m going to trust the 2, 2, 2, 2 math. In part because that’s what my new countdown clock over there on the side says. Also, I don’t want to wait until Friday for it to be 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks, and 2 days until graduation!
