So yesterday was my birthday. Now I'm even older than I was before. It's amazing how fast the elditude sneaks up on you.

Samantha gave me an Optimus Prime Potato Head for my birthday. Here he is hanging out with Darth Tater. My collection of nostalgic 80s potato heads continues to grow.



The device to the right of Optimus Potato-head is my binary clock. Your computer nerd challenge is to figure out what time I took this picture. The lit up LEDs are a bit washed out by the flash, but I know you have the skills to do it!

Speaking of super-old, it was Lennie's Mom's birthday on Sunday. We had her 60th surprise party on Saturday. Here you can see Samantha trying really hard to help Mimi blow out the candles on her cake.



Samantha is a party animal, unlike me. She will dance, and dance, and dance, and dance... forever. Here she is up on stage in her party dress strutting her stuff.



There are so many birthdays here around this time of year, we have a party every other week. I think Samantha is going to be very depressed when we make it to January and all the parties/holiday festivities come to an abrupt halt.

In other depressing news, it's race week here in Charlotte. So I will be laying low to avoid the traffic. Fortunately I also recieved a new LCD TV for my birthday, and I've hooked up my gaming consoles to it. So as long as the food supply holds out I'll be happy as a clam in my little hidey-hole.
