Broken Lamp, Jack, and Ryan Adams

This is my broken lamp. I broke it one night during a clutzy moment while switching out the plug...I am pretty good at accidentally breaking things (ask Justin, he used to keep a list on the fridge of stuff I would accidentally break in the house...and it was long). So, the thing is, I broke it a month ago and haven't replaced it yet...the jagged edges go all the way around and probably aren't that safe. It is a little artsy looking now though and I just haven't had time to drive to Ikea to get another one to replace it (it's truly just a boring $10 lamp, but I really like the energy efficient light bulbs that cost just as much as the lamp). So, if you come visit me, don't make fun of the lamp. Or, bring me a new one.

I got the new Jack Johnson CD back on February 3rd when it came out and it is so zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Oh, I'm sorry. I fell asleep talking about it. It's just too damn mellow. I mean, I know he recently had another kid (maybe he was trying to be quiet so he wouldn't wake him up) and recorded the CD in a solar powered building (maybe he was trying to conserve energy), but it is not what I was hoping for. Don't worry, he still looks really good on the cover though. My suggestion is to throw it in rotation of your sleep CD's or for your kid's naptime.

So, after my disappointment with not having a good driving CD to listen to, I ventured out and picked up Ryan Adam's newest CD (came out this past summer), Easy Tiger. This is THE BEST CD I have heard in a long time. Favorite song, and song of the moment...Everybody Knows. It is a perfect song.

That's all folks.
