Of all the buttocks in all the world, why'd she have to walk into mine?

Thank you for the gifts, everyone.

From Deb (all the way down in Antarctica):
A T-shirt saying "Penguin Ranch, Antarctica"

From Fritz (a Closetspace reader!)
X2: XMen United on DVD

From Mike:
A Viewmaster 3D, with a set of Viewmaster Discs from the original Star Trek, the animated Star Trek, and the first and second movies! I used to have a Viewmaster 3D, but my parents never bought any discs for it - I spent all my time looking at the sampler that came with it. :)

From Sera
Justice League Unlimited DVD Box Set

From Strangelove
A set of random quotes for my Livejournal headers

From my family:
$20
Some new pots
An "Electronic" Clock (it's made of electronics, but it's totally old school time telling)
Dungeons and Dragons DVD Box Set!
Some new jeans
A new T-shirt (One size too small)

And the rest:
The Stone Rose Dr. Who book.
Sony Shortwave Radio (Listening to Radio Japan as we speak!)
Black Leather Executive Chair for the bedroom.
Sony Playstation 2 Slim
Bedroom Wind Curve Upright Fan for the bedroom
Rubbermaid Needlenose Pliers

Thanks everyone. ^_^

When she gets to the part about the curried habanero horseradish, don't try any.

2006 got off on the wrong foot right away. The year threw a LOT of obtacles in my way, and in fact, I recognized in it, the same kind of warning signs that 2006 was shaping up to become a year like 2001. 2001 was a terrible year.

However, going into a siege mentality on this really worked out. Obstacles were encountered, and either conquered or withheld until they could be deflected. I lost a battle or two here and there, but in general I've won many more than I lost. Another theme this year was cancellation. A lot of stuff was cancelled. Some for good, some for bad. But there was a LOT. In fact, for a while, the one sentence year in review was going to be simply "Cancelled." But in all, even with the cancellations, things that needed to be done were done, and we moved on.

Even with all the obstacles, and all the cancellations, I've hit all the high notes I hoped to, and even hit a few I didn't expect. It's still a 50% 50% year, like 2005, but at leastI felt like I accomplished stuff, even if I'm a bit worse for wear.

The 2006 One Sentence Year in Review

The show must go on.

2005: What to have, what to hold: A poor man's roses, or a rich man's gold.
2004: You like me! You really like me!
2003: Once more...with feeling!
2002: Wow...that could have gone better.
2001: I hope you die and get ate by worms, Milkman Dan.

Writing is east. Someday we hope to read, too.

Oh, I forgot. I also got a keyboard. It weighs about five pounds. And it goes CLICK every key you press. :D

I'm hell on keyboards. My very first computer was an IBM PCjr, and it had this chicklet type keyboard. Each key was this rounded lego block button that you had to hit straight on in order to to get it to register. Since I couldn't press perfectly straight on the keys, I learned to hit the keys hard.

My second computer had a really good keyboard like the one I just got. Because it was so good, I still spiked keys and pushed hard on keys since it worked just fine. After almost five years of pounding on it (And almost 12 years of hitting keys like jackhammers), one of my cousins spilled Big Red all over it and shorted it out. I got my first cheapie keyboard that afternoon.

They were still selling these good keyboards, but I needed something cheap and fast and I got it. From that point on, keyboards would last at the most, a year before they started breaking. Either the space bar, or the right shift key (There's a picture around here somewhere of my right shift key FRACTURING from the way I type.

I've bought so many keyboards over the years, it's pathetic...and seeing that I just broke one days before Christmas, I finally splurged and bought a $80 keyboard that goes CLICK CLICK CLICK when I type. :D

Ah, the memories.

I really should learn to not spike keys when I type.
