i’m better. and since this weeks friday five is discussing an issue very near and dear to my heart, i decided to participate.

1. Hey, baby, what’s your sign? Do you think it fits you pretty well?

i’m a gemini. i think it’s all too fitting with my penchant for chatter and multiple-personality disorder.

2. What’s the worst birthday gift you’ve ever received?

i don’t think there is such a thing as a worst gift. however, i ruined my 16th birthday by failing my driver’s test. that pretty much sucked. it really, really sucked because i then proceeded to fail the test two more times. eventually one of the testerguys took pity on me and passed me the fourth time around.

3. What’s the best birthday gift you’ve ever received?

once upon a time ago i thought it was the Anthology of American Folk Music boxed set. then i thought it was the year that i got 1234 FIVE, FIVE boquets of flowers delivered to my place of employment. but really, i think it was the personally autographed copy of vonnegut’s cat’s cradle.

4. What’s the best way you’ve celebrated your birthday thus far?

every year is better than the last. i make a big deal out of my birthday. so really, it’s always gobs and gobs of fun.

5. What are your plans for this weekend?

tonight i am going with the sisters and amanda hugnkiss to a comedy club. i have no idea how i got roped into this one. saturday is jakey’s first birthday party and my bi-monthly date with the kidlings. sunday is napping and masturbating. it will be a fulfilling weekend, i am sure.
