Weekly Wrap-Up #53 - Birthdays

1. When is your birthday?
July 7, 1970… Made me 7 years old on 7/7/77… Just love that cuz I had nothing to do with it and its totally silly..

2. How accurate is your zodiac sign?
I have no clue… I may very well be the only gay man in existance that doesn’t know a damn thing about ‘my sign’ nor do I care…

3. What do you typically do to celebrate your birthday?
Hang out with friends. My absolute favorite thing to do for my birthday is dinner and time with my friends.. Since my B-day is in the summer a bbq is GREAT… Brings out the social beast..

4. Do you like to receive presents? Why or why not?
Only if they’re silly joke presents… Fact is i’m one of these that buys things I the minute they pop to mind but it can be fun to see how creative (and crude) people can get…

5. Describe the best birthday and/or present you ever had.
2 of them pop to mind. First was in college - I interned in SF every year so I was away from all of my college friends on my birthday every year which REALLY sucked… So one year my friend Christy got everyone together - in Colorado I might add - and threw a big birthday party. One person had a video camera and taped everything.. Then they boxed up the video tape along with all of the party streamers, open gifts, and other party remnants, and mailed ‘em to me so I could see the birthday party… Sounds kinda cruel but made me feel special..

The second was my 30th birthday party.. Kevin threw a surprise party for me for my b-day - which generally never works… But he and a bunch of my friends were in on it… Chris brought me out for cocktails in cupertino and stalled and stalled - all the while I talked to kevin who said he and I were going for dinner and then meet people at the end up… i’m thinkin - hmmm.. that sucks.. my 30th birthday and thats it. Dinner at the usual and then MAYBE a drink… Chris drove me home and dropped me off… Walked in the door and saw balloons on the floor and like EVERYONE I KNEW was there.. was SO NICE…

Colors

Ugggg… Sorry kevin, as well coordinated as these colors may be on here, they’re REALLY hard to read…

I’ll fix ‘em ASAP.. Can’t let myself do that right now though or I’ll waste the day doing that instead of the job that they pay me to do…

(Ok.. I did lighten the link color - that helps out some… have to sit down with kevin and look at the rest since he’s Mr. Color)

Good tools gone bad

So sun is shining i’ve got my music playing in my office as I try to get some work done… And I get this iChat message from a buddy of mine that I used to work with asking who the Kinsey Sicks are…

Hmmm… Why did he ask that…

Told them they’re a really funny drag a-cappella group… why?

He said “Cuz it shows their name by your name in AIM”….

Ohhh…. I forgot that i was running this silly little program called iChatStatus that sets your AIM message to the song that you’re playing in iTunes… kinda cute and silly… So I look at my status

FUCK….

It says “Kinsey Sicks - Anal Warts”…

THAAAAATTTTSSSS Why he was asking…

Guess I gotta be careful what I listen to or turn off iChatStatus..

Funny part is it has the abilty to show the Song your playing in iTunes, the page you’re browsing in your favorite browser, the application you’re running, or a some other stuff.. I figured the browser page could be dangerous but musich should be fine..

Guess not…

Anyway - made me laugh
