A New Xbox

Wow. Your friends can always surprise you. Today, Tantek and Amber showed up with a new Xbox for me, from Tantek, Mike and Patrick. It was a very nice gesture, and a huge surprise coming the day after my birthday. Thanks, guys!
By the time my Dad was my age, he owned a home and had a son (me). I rent an apartment and have a video game console. I’m certainly not complaining, but I wonder if he would have owned a video game console had they existed when he was 35.
In any case, I love it. Thanks again!

It’s My Birthday Today

I just had a few people over, people who filled my home with warmth and friendship. The day was overcast and chilly, but once we got off the roof and inside, it didn’t seem to dampen anyone’s spirits.
A big thank you to all who came by…

I’m ashamed I’m from Missouri

The residents of Missouri just voted to ban gay marriage (or rather, to define marriage as between a man and a woman). Stupid hicks. Small-minded, intolerant hicks.
