So yeah, I’m 37 now. Fuck. To quote my idol since boyhood, Tom Lehrer<\/a>, “It’s a sobering thought, for example, that when Mozart was my age, he had been dead for two years.” I’m milking that one all year long. That and the Holy Grail<\/em> sketch with Dennis<\/a>. Though Andy Eddy, who recently turned 50, said he just leveled up to be a Lv 50 Nerd. I liked that. The first word I said when I woke up was “Ding!”<\/p>\n

I go between being really excited and really shy on my birthday; usually, the even years are stoked and the odd years are quiet. This is an odd year, so it was low-key. I’m on crazy deadline so now’s not really the time to celebrate anyway. I wish I hadn’t gotten hit with insomnia last night, but other than that, no complaints.<\/p>\n

The holiday came with some loot. My parents got me a good book, Kat got me some Portal swag<\/a> and I’m using some gift certificate money to get a new keyboard. My beloved Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro is excessively loud when I type – like hail on a tin roof. (Those of you who have been near me when I type know the legends are true.) It’s actually been keeping Kat awake at night, so I’m going to try the Natural 4000<\/a> and hope that makes everybody happy.<\/p>\n

Kat also made me a cake. It wasn’t a lie. It was a triumph, huge success, so delicious and moist, ad nauseam<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Andy turned me onto this band Spookie Daly Pride<\/a> a few years back and I feel compelled to share their Birthday Song<\/a> on this Very Special Occasion. Enjoy as my bootleggy gift to you, and remember, if you dig it, buy it. The whole album’s awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
