Lamp @ MindSay

...what did you think it was?

I was washing dishes, looking thru the window.  I saw the sun coming up behind my lamp outside, and thought - what a nice picture it would make.

Avaliable in the lobby, for a good price :-)

WORCESTER, MA--At the age of fifty-five months, the bright and once-trendy translucent desk lamp of my undergraduate years finally ceased to glow. Those who remember it would attest to the way it gave a new and enlightening perspective to issues put before it. Surviving it is the trusty 200-page paperclip that wrapped its claws around the neck of the ill lamp to the very end.

Cause of death is yet unknown. An autopsy will be performed in the near future. The coroner's office has not yet ruled out the possibility of a burned out bulb, but has stated that this is an unlikely possibility given preliminary investigation.

P.S. From the sticker on the bottom (horrid grammaticals and punctuation included) -- A 100 watt Halogen bulb provides more than 2 times the illumination of a 100 watt incandescent bulb. but only consumes about 1/2 the energy

Excuse me? Your watts are bigger than their watts? Just kidding, you know. (Wait till you see MY watts.) They didn't even mention that this is a 20-watt lamp. $10 at Target. Maybe I should just get a new one and forget about the old-school iMac-esque translucent fad of the late '90s.

Im thinking of re-arranging my bookcase koz 2 of the shelves are starting to bend from all the books...so Im gonna move them to the bottom 2 shelves and move my stuffed animals up to those 2...hopefully that'll put my mind to ease about them breaking in half haha

 

Mich has the day off I think so I might see if we kan go to Ikea so I kan look at getting some shelves fer my wall and hopefully that damm lamp Ive been in dire need of...

 

also need to go to Old Navy and see if they got their summer klothes in so I kan maybe get a kouple new pairs of shorts...the one I have  now is worn to Hell...its got like 10 holes in it haha well not that many but I kant wear em in publik anymore thats fer sure

 

*sighs* my headaches still around...dunno how to get rid of it...I thought it was koz I havent really eaten anything lately but I had some food and its still here...I also took 2 pills and its not gone yet...I feel like Im gonna hurl...at least my stomachs settled down thankfully...being human blows sometimes

 

I wanna go to BestBuy tomorrow too and see how much their video kameras are...I want one with night vision

 

anyway...Im probably gonna head to bed in a bit...

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
biked away my frustration and confusion at two minutes a mile this afternoon.
ran through my head what i could say or could not say on the ride back home
but decided that.
i'm confused.

The Lord knows that this world is cruel
I ain't the Lord, I'm just a fool
and in love with somebody don't make them love you

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool

I sang your songs, I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you

Maybe you've been through this before
But it's my first time so please ignore
These next few lines because they're directed at you

I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool

I keep playing your part
But it's not my scene
Want this plot to twist
I've had enough mystery
Keep building it up
Then shooting me down
But I'm already down

Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting

Well if I was in your position
I'd put down all my amuntintion
I'd wonder why it had taken me so long

But the lord knows that I'm not you
and if I was I wouldn't be so cruel
cause waitin' on love ain't so easy to do

Must I always be waiting, waiting
