Friday Five

Friday Five

1. What's the most romantic thing you've ever done for someone else?
Back when Marcus and I first started going out I used to do an evening right: tons of candles, nice dinner, romantic music, soak in the tub, backrubs, etc. Man, having different working schedules now really sucks.

2. [pardon the cosmo question] What are your erogenous zones?
Ears and neck.

3. How old were you the first time you had sex? Care to expound?
I did it once when I was 16 with a real creep of a guy. BIG MISTAKE! Didn't have sex again until I was 19.

4. What's the most unusual place you've ever had sex?
In a hot tub during a college friend's birthday party that got waaaay out of hand. wink

5. Do you have plans for Valentine's Day or is it just another Thursday?
It'll be just another Thursday, I'm afraid, as Marcus and I will both be working. Not even a new CSI on this week. We usually celebrate with a nice dinner out the weekend closest to Valentine's Day. So, that'll probably be next weekend.

A Computer Poem for Users Over 40

The following poem from my Lockergnome newsletter is dedicated to you, Dad:
A Computer Poem for Users Over 40

A computer was something on TV
From a science fiction show of note
A window was something you hated to clean
And ram was the cousin of a goat.

Meg was the name of my girlfriend
And gig was a job for the nights
Now they all mean different things
And that really mega bytes.

An application was for employment
A program was a TV show
A cursor used profanity
A keyboard was a piano.

Memory was something that you lost with age
A CD was a bank account
And if you had a 3-inch floppy
You hoped nobody found out.

Compress was something you did to the garbage
Not something you did to a file
And if you unzipped anything in public
You'd be in jail for a while.

Log on was adding wood to the fire
Hard drive was a long trip on the road
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
And a backup happened to your commode.

Cut you did with a pocketknife
Paste you did with glue
A web was a spider's home
And a virus was the flu.

I'll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head
No one's been killed in a computer crash
But it makes their face turn red!

Vote Teal

I registered to vote today...for the new M&M's color, that is. You can do it too by going here. Even if you could care less about the color of an M&M, it's still a pretty cool site. I wasted a good hour there tonight.
