I was 30 on the 23rd and I got:

- an out of tune electric piano with a broken leg

- a poetry book
- a board game with sheep
- all the beer I could drink
- some money for my new shelf system (very expensive)
I want a violin too...

I've discovered a problem with Google's Chat feature for users who have a high number users in their Google Chat - I have over 2500 entries in my address book.

I was wondering, I had a discussion in somebodies Journal about my "I am become Shiva destroyer of worlds" sig, but damned google/Yahoo! doesn't return results for the discussion. It's passed out of my message history, but was in the beginning of 2005.

I can sum it up in two words, a lot. All the presents are good; I'll read all the books, wash with all the soap, play with all the toys and even wear all the socks and boxers.
