Well, he could think of it as "One Year Closer To The Grave"...
Then he'd be overjoyed.

I'm going to have to say this again, aren't I? Please don't start threads saying "It's my birthday, la la la". While we are all delighted, if everyone does it it will quickly get more boring than Tim giving out sexy tips on sex.

And if all 357 members just did it once a year?
Actually, that would make a lot of people happy, but I digress. Or not.

If Flare is still around five years from now, and this thread hasn't been lost in the mist of time by then, we will all happily celebrate your renewal. B)

Jeff always struck me as a runner...
although it personally amazes me how many people choose to do so, and completely fuck their chances of going to Carousel...

Well, I seem to have this annoying habit of resurrecting this thread every year on August 9th (and while it isn't August 9th right now everywhere in the world, is it is now after 12:01 am Monday morning, so it is here) because I have an insane wish for people to say �Wow, Jeff, happy birthday� while really thinking �Wow, Jeff, you crazy fucking ass, haven�t you killed yourself yet?� Yes, Liam, I stole your thunder. Sorry.
So, in keeping with the suggestion that I �might as well make this thread a kind of yearly status report on all aspects of your life�, well, here goes.
I can�t believe I started this thread three years ago. Wow. 23 to 26 (or as I like to say, �I�m turning 21 ... for the 5th time�). It is kind of crazy how some things have turned out - I did buy a Toyota Celica, but not a GTS, and not on my 25th birthday (about a month earlier, actually).
I�m still in debt. Bought a new computer, actually. But the balances are dropping. I�ve paid off a few cards, and I have another one about to bite the dust in September, and hopefully two more by January. I�m also saving for a trip to Hawaii early next year - my sister recently moved to Oahu after being offered a job as a middle school teacher. In case you don�t understand this, this means all I have to do is pay for a plane ticket and I get to crash on her couch in her apartment RIGHT ON THE BEACH for a week. Of course, this is the opposite side of the island of Honolulu, and is apparently rather arid and has cacti and lots of homeless people who live in tents and own cars. Odd, but ... hey, it�s Hawaii!
A few of you might remember a few weeks ago when UM and I got into a bit of a snit-fest. Well, over some PM he reminded me that I once had the ambition to write, and hoped that I hadn�t given up on that. Well I suppose I sort of had. Well no more! I quit my job at Papa John�s (and let�s face it, I was doing that because I can�t find a �real� job and now that I need time to focus my energy on this thing, I�ll stick with the tipping job). I�m working on launching a blog ... not one of those www.buildablogforfree.com thingies. Nah. Going to have (read: pay) someone build me a rather nice blog, register a domain name ... I�m thinking a mix of politics, social commentary, personal stuff about me (and how best to kill deer), fiction, reviews, stuff like that. I�ll print up a bunch of bumper-stickers and send �em to people like Liam, Liz, Charles, Omega, Daryus and Lee (and so on and so forth), and others to illegally distribute them on people�s cars without their knowledge for free publicity. It�ll be a guerilla campaign of sorts.
In the meantime, I�m still playing a lot of Counter-Strike. I�ll frag you, biatch! This new computer is nice, too, since it cuts down my lag and I actually have nights where my kill column is larger than my died column. Woohoo!
Well, herein ends another Snay update. Oh, real quick: my love life is deader than Ronald Reagan. On the other hand, my cats are both still alive. And I�m still in my nice apartment. So I guess things are looking up, except, y�know, I�m working some dead-end jobs. Eh, fuck it. Thing�s will look up eventually, and if they don�t, there�s always suicide.

Dude, check out www.csgamer.com. They are the best in Counterstrike Servers.
Happy Birthday. I shudder when I realize I will be turning 27 this year.
Boy do I feel old.
