The Sunday New York Times

Anyone else do the crossword yesterday? Did you find it relatively easier than it should have been? I normally get like one clue every 5 minutes and then give up after really stretching my brain for maybe 10 answers, but yesterday I was on fire. I actually finished about 75% of the puzzle, on my own, in less than an hour. This is a personal best for me, so I am led to believe the puzzle was easier than what normally appears in a typical Sunday NYT.

Or, I am a real live GENIUS. Because real live geniuses take almost an hour to finish 75% of a stupid crossword.

Seriously, will I ever finish one of these mothers without any help? All signs point to NO. But all signs point to YES that I am a big nerd for writing a blog post about this.

The Oregonian runs the Sunday NYT puzzle one week behind. I do it every week, so I'll let you know next Sunday whether you're a true genius or not. Sometimes the topics just happen to match up with your mental skill set (ugh, did i really just use that phrase?).
