It’s not my birthday
It’s not today
It’s not my birthday so why do you lunge out at me?

It’s not just my birthday today (I’m 26!), it’s the birthday of many others! Thanks to the Ageless Project, I’ve discovered some great bloggers out there that share this day with me.

• of course, there’s Christine who’s turning 33… she’s well known amongst us in the blogging community as one of the ScriptyGoddesses and the founder of Picture Yourself.
• David, who’s turning 28, is a fellow artistic Flip in the Silly Valley. There’s more than one of us!
• Light the candles (although I dunno how many) for jonathon!
• I don’t know much about Chris and how old he/she is, but hey, here’s a birthday toast!

When the word comes down never more will be around
Though I wish we were there
I was less that we could bear
And I’m not the only dust my mother raised…

WTF is up with Amazon‘s “Gold Box”?

They say that the offers within my Gold Box are based on stores I’ve browsed in the past… so why am I being offered an Indoor/Outdoor Generator, an Anne Geddes Baby Sunflower Doll, a Harry Potter talking room alarm, and a Wagner Model 305 Wide Shot Power Painter?

The world may never know.

I’m all excited and stuff. Spirited Away opens today in the US, and I’m itching to see it.

“Spirited Away” is the latest film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, best known as the director of great films such as “Princess Mononoke” and “My Neighbor Totoro”. If you have never seen his films, I suggest you do so soon! He has been in the business a long time, and has a real knack for engaging storytelling and beautiful cinematography.

A lot of people seem to think that Anime is all cute cute creatures or giant robots or teenage girls in school uniforms. Give it a chance and open your mind! Don’t judge Anime at all until you see a Miyazaki film.

Just got back from the weblogger meetup in Cupertino.

Two hosts, 6 people had RSVP’ed. And then there were four. Ealasaid, her father, Guy, Antwon and I were the lucky winners.

Good times, good coffee, good conversation. I think that Coffee Society is a really great place to meet people… they have a cool back room with sofas and internet taps and power outlets and local rags… a geek utopia when you add in the caffeine factor! My wireless net tap worked there, but it was a pay-as-you go ($7 a day or $20 a month) service. Bah.

I forgot the camera, but we’ll always have the memories. Either that, or the blog entries. ^_^;;

Buckle up kids, it’s now time for…
