Landismom (who may or may not actually be Lando's mom) over at Bumblebee Sweet Potato tagged me with a meme a few days ago. I think I've seen this one floating around, but if so I never got tagged before, and since I won't be around for a few days this seemed like as good a time as any to do it.
So here goes....in threes...
20 years ago I...
- Was a member of a "gang" named R.O.A.D. (Rebels of American Destruction) The extent of our menace was stealing traffic cones
- Was spending endless hours playing Ultima III on my Commodore computer
- Was wondering what secrets we'd find in Al Capone's vault
10 years ago I...
- Had a goatee
- Was explaining to my manager how important this new "internet" thing was going to be to our company
- Was so money, but didn't even know it
5 years ago I...
- Was getting over a girl who had unceremoniously dumped me...the last one to do so
- Was hopeless addicted to Napster
- Was beginning to wonder if The Simpsons and The X-Files were ever going to be good again
3 years ago I...
- Was buying the tux for my wedding
- Could not believe how bad the Matrix sequels were
- Was really, really glad I wasn't living in California.
1 year ago I...
- Forgot Mother's Day (but you knew that already)
- I snuck out of work to see Episode III...twice
- Was trying very hard not to think about how much my life would change at the beginning of July
So far this year I...
- Escaped Hell
- Have seen the promised land....and have been stopped by the bouncer
- Probably did something they'll need to send a cyborg from the future to undo
Yesterday I...
- Did some stuff...
- ...and some other stuff
- Oh! I wondered why Sayid was the only person with a brain among the castaways
Today I...
- Didn't get to finish my coffee before I left home
- Hooked two co-workers on allofMP3.com
- Just missed a downpour as I was about to leave the office
Tomorrow I will...
- Fly to New Orleans for a bachelor party
- Encourage my friends to do things they will regret later
- Not go to bed
In the next year I will...
- Watch Cheeky learn to walk, talk, and hopefully memorize the complete lyrics to Powerage.
- Single-handedly fend off an invading force of fleshy-headed mutants, but no one will know about it. That's how I roll.
- Wear sunscreen
Three people to tag...
I'm not going to pick on anyone in particular this time, so let's just say that if you live in...how about Massachusetts....and you haven't done this one yet, you're up. And you know who you are....
Oh, Billy Dee! Soooooo dreamy!
Have a great trip (well, not that great), and thanks for playing along.

I live in MA, but there is no link to my poor blog.. How will all the people know where to go if they need a tutu? I feel paranoid.

I guess that means me. Did you pin the tail on the map to come up with my state? Wait. Do people still use maps?
Hope your drunken debauchery in N'awlins went well and nobody got arrested.
