This is the sort of thing that I did 17 years ago; dress peculiarly while waiting for my hair to grow past the Prince Valiant phase.

Another thing I did was send an e-mail to one Nadja Robot (née Herreshoff, aka fairyarmadillo) on February 21st, 1995, after many hours of chatting in alt.music.nin. Thanks for falling in love with such a dork over the internet.

Happy anniversary, beautiful.
