About Me


Look! I got a comment from OK Go! I feel so fantastically special. Even more so than I did before :D I feel loved... I'll have pictures up here- http://www.twango.com/Oliver_reindeer .. width="425" height="350" ..
Hello, my name is Oliver! I'm very excited to have an official myspace page. How wonderful! Now I can chat directly to my adoring fans ;) (yes, reindeers CAN wink).
At one point I was living my days floating around New York, as inflatable reindeer tend to do, and enjoying myself greatly. Back in those days I was filled with helium, so it was much easier to get around. On day I was casually floating by a concert hall when I heard the most magnificent sound. I let out some air to get closer to this heavenly noise and figure out what band could be so talented. I soon found out they were known as OK Go. Being the great adventurer I am, I was soon able to float in an open window and use the computer that was sitting nearby to look them up, and at that moment I dedicated my life to meeting them, one way or another!
Now, as you may or may not know, inflatable reindeer are becoming scarcer now. A charitable company known as Virgin Unite (off of Virgin Mobile) was searching for some remaining wild IR to have decorated by celebrities, to then be auctioned off for charity. This way, needy people would get money, the IR would feel good knowing they've done something helpful, and everyone knows that the few IRs around are going be be safe and no longer targets for needle-wielding children. I heard through the grapevine I was the last wild IR out there and searches were in progress trying to track me down, so I floated on over to the Virgin Mobile building and agreed to give myself up, under one condition- The celebrities to decorate me would have to be none other than OK Go. They followed my request, and I had the most fun with them all. Except the singer, Damian. Out of nowhere, he viciously attacked me! But, as one of their songs says, I'll "get over it". And I have. I love Damian (in the way an inflatable reindeer loves their hero).
So I had a fantabulous (reindeer lingo) time with the best band ever, and eventually went up for auction. It was a long week as the bids grew in sharp leaps every few days. In the end, I became the most famous reindeer of all, with 28 bids and a selling price of $311. I feel very special indeed! So, having gained that top label, I feel very proud, and I do hope that OK Go knows as well.
Now I've taken up residence in Portland, Oregon, in the homes of Maura and Emily (split custody. Man, it sure sucks when your guardians are split :P)

Tim didn't much enjoy getting his butt sniffed. Not much you can do when you're a snowman though. At least he's still white!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


I would like to meet OK Go. Again. And again. And again and again and again and, well, you get the point! Along with their great music and fantastic performances, they are wonderful visual artists. Dan is especially talented in this field, being the one who drew such a lovely Santa Clause tattoo on my left arm. I hear he's also great at caricatures! When I run into him again I'll have to convince him to add something on my right side. They all treated me very well. Andy gave me a piggy back ride, which was quite a change for me; I'm used to people sitting on me (one thing that Tim did indulge in), and was quite fun to see what it was like from their point of view. The second time around they were all quite subdued, which was the total opposite of the first time I met them. Damian didn’t try and kill me this time. He asked Maura and Emily if they’d seen the video of them with me. Well, of course they had, hahaha! Who in the OK Go community hasn’t seen it? They all know who I am :) it’s wonderful to be a celebrity. Really, it is. Except I have to worry about people laying out boards with nails in them outside my door because of their jealousy =/
I also met Snow Patrol! It’s quite the amazing story too, actually. They were all in their fancy white van pulling out of the locked in parking lot, when suddenly they stopped and I heard a door slide open on the opposite side. Then Gary Lightbody himself appears from the other side of the van and asks in his Irish accent “Is that a reindeer?!?” with quite the confused tone. Well, the rest of the band soon followed and Emily and Maura went through the story of me and how I’m OK Go’s reindeer and all that jazz. They got their pictures done, and then they asked if they could sign me! So Gary signed, Tom signed, Jonny drew a hand on my back leg over the garter, and Paul (it looks like Pablo. On mine and everyone else's signatures. He was a little drunk... He was pry having some fun) signed my butt. I feel wonderful now.

I'm a trickster

This afternoon I've been intently watching Maura as she writes on the computer, and more recently, sits on the couch watching The Simpsons and Malcolm in the Middle. She hasn't been getting much sleep...
