Orkut sex change?

A friend of mine joined Orkut and must’ve overlooked a gender box somewhere and got registered as the wrong sex.. He got a nice reply back from them:

Hi *******,

Thanks for your reply. We hope to switch your gender shortly, and we
appreciate your patience.

That’s nice Orkut, if I ever go to a member party I’ll have to watch how much I drink.. 🙂

Orkut has an efficient consumer of lots of my time lately, it’s great fun. If you’re not a member, find someone who is and have them invite you!

Username + password = my life.

So I was invited to join Orkut this week and I just joined. It’s basically an online network of friends which can be used to find activity partners, business networking, and apparently dating as well. It’s done by invitation only, so everybody has at least one person to vouch for them. If you’re interested in joining, let me know.

Stuff.

Well, I got the job. Due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control, I start after the holiday vacation. That’s good news, though some spending money for my trip would be nice. I think my official job title is “Microcomputer Support Apprentice”, though I’m not certain. Yay job!

I think I’ve decided to not do the ski team thing. It would eat up too much time (literally ALL DAY 2 days a week plus 4 straight weekends and like 2 weeks at the end for regionals and nationals), maybe next year. I’ll be doing plenty of skiing over the holiday, and there are plenty of trips through the outdoor program and the local ski shop to any of the ski areas around.

Thanksgiving was great fun, spent it with my brother and his family in Boise ID. Did some skiing at Bogus Basin, snow was a tad sparse and it rained one day. “A bad day on the slopes is better than a good day at school/work/whatever”

Decided against that “risky business proposal”. I’ll just say the story begins with “So I met this guy in a bar…” and involves selling some equipment (that’s currently in another state) on ebay. I don’t know if I would’ve gotten burned if I did it, but I wasn’t comfortable with it at all.

So the holidays are coming up.. wanna see my spectacular decorations?
