I do, but I'm not as good at it as I'd like to be.

I like increasing the numbers that pertain to the balance of my savings account, yes.



Serious answer: Depends. If it's a boring math class where you math for the sake of mathing because the academic overlords commanded me to, then no. If it's at work or at my internship, I don't have a problem with it.

Yes, to a point.  I enjoy adding up numbers in my head, but I sometimes have trouble with multistep math problems.

My ally is Math, and a powerful ally it is. The mind creates it, makes it expand. Numerical beings are we, not just crude posters. You must feel the Math around you; between you, me, elections, maps, everywhere, yes.

I don't really work with numbers as I do variables and formulas. Up to now, I've mooched off data from accountants, programmers and census people.

An interesting observation. I've never seen them as truly different, numbers and variables are both symbolic representations for things we quantify in our world. Formulas just provide usable relationships between variables and numbers.
