My 20th Birthday
I had to do some digging for this audio clip. I found it on a CD I had in a spindle called “Audio Greatness and Comedy of God” And it was of me on XM Radio the 90’s channel for my 20th Birthday. The wonderful Girl 2.0 had me on her show on May 20th 2003 if math serves me correctly. Listening to this clip I noticed some things. I wasn’t really into this I had no real ability I guess. But it was my birthday and those tend to depress me. I remember wanting an XM Radio Boombox and a Steak Dinner. Every birthday I always want a Big Fat 20oz+ Steak and one specific gift. But that never really ever seems to happen. My girlfriend at the time Andrea took me to Applebee’s which as I recall I had to pay for. Then I had to go buy all of my present.
But my general tone in this is like I am really depressed. That female was sucking the life out of me. Reminds me of this quote from the movie Armageddon. Hmm perhaps that was mean. Oh well we broke up later that year.
But it’s really interesting to hear me then all depressed not really excited about life. Compared to now. But XM Radio and running ClubXM.com and being part of the Satellite Radio Forum revolution was my only outlet my only real passion other then wanting to please my girlfriend at the time. But ever since I would say about Birthday #17 they have all sucked and I have little faith in anyone for my birthday. I make it an important note of mine to make sure everyone knows of everyone else’s birthday. I call everyone on their birthday. Just on some small shred of hope they return the favor some day. Pay it forward as they say.
Anyways for your audio pleasure of hearing me many years ago compared to now.

I started on ClubXM.com which was a combination XM and Sirius Forum. Then it died so I moved over to XMFan.com but XM did some things I didn’t like so I switched to moderating SiriusBackstage.com. I still have both XM and Sirius and listen to both.
I am a Die Hard Sirius Listener.
Wow, you sounded cheery! It would be great to do that again this year, and compare the old, depressed, short (in speech) Tristan to the new, cheery, rambling one!
Well I would but Girl 2.0 is sadly no longer with XM Radio. So probably won’t happen. Though I can just record myself now
