First, thanks for the comments about my tax stuff. I emailed his day care and they sent something right over. Easy peasy. I guess that in the future I can just add it up on my own since I now have their ID number.

Sometimes I think I’m hip. Sometimes I find out about things like Sweet Brown or Guys Being Girls before the vast majority of the country and it makes me feel cool. But then sometimes I feel like I live under a rock. I only saw the Harlem Shake for the first time about a week and a half ago. I’d seen the name a million times but never clicked any of the links. It’s dumb, y’all. I don’t get it.

Someone in our Bible Study shared this video with us and I think it’s a must-see. Listen, I’m not a Taylor Swift hater. I’m really not. I’m 13 years old in my heart (power to the world, spice up your life) so I will turn up the radio and sing her music when I’m alone. But this is just funny

One of my responsibilities at work is to write our company’s newsletters. Last week I wrote one that had a perfect opportunity for “ain’t nobody got time for that” and it took great restraint to not include that. Some of our customers would have gotten the reference and probably thought we were cool, but I fear that a large portion of our customers would be appalled by the usage of “ain’t.”

Because I’m in the mood to share things, check out this song. Don’t watch
the video, it’s dumb.
Just push play and minimize the browser so you can listen. It’s a gorgeous song. I think it speaks to the insecurities we all hang on to, even (especially?) in marriage. The day in and day out can wear on you and it is important to learn how to love your spouse again. I don’t know if that’s exactly what the lyrics are saying, in fact it probably isn’t. There is probably something I’m not getting, but that’s what it means to me. I’m hearing it as a complete misunderstanding between the two of them because of insecurity. Also, it’s Pink and the guy from Fun. Thoughts?

And because I feel like this post wouldn’t be appropriately documenting my life without this: Jansen can now sing “Baa Baa Black Sheep.” It is HILARIOUS. I’ll try to video it this weekend.
1. I’m glad you got it straight. I couldn’t have helped with that since my man takes care of taxes.
2. Jacob introduced me to Harlem Shake two weeks ago and I don’t get it either. At.all.
3. I saw this video last week and had not heard the song, so I didn’t get it. (does that surprise you?) After watching the original video I now understand and it is funny.
4. That made me laugh out loud!
5. I’m going to listen to the song, but I have to tell you that bear with the glowing eyes behind Pink is giving me the creeps.
6. Post it! I posted Ava blowing raspberries today. My mama is going to shoot me because she’s talking constantly in the background. Oh well. Can’t pass up a good video, can we?
My students are obsessed with that Taylor Swift goat!! HAHA.
The first time I heard that song I about DIED. Pink AND Nate Ruess??!? HEAVEN. Love it. I’m excited that you like it, too.
Okay that Taylor Swift video was wierd as heck! Is it real????
And the song on the other video was beautiful…
And I would have been one of “those customers” that would not have gotten “it” and been “appalled” by the ain’t!
6. LOVE the song. excuse me while I listen to it on repeat the rest of the evening.
Don’t feel bad, I don’t understand the hype of the harlem shake thing either. And let me tell you, if I was on that plane I’d be pissed as hell. (you did see that on the news, right?) Just looks like ppl having seizures or something, idk.
The Taylor Swift/goat duo was funny! Thanks for sharing
The Pink song, I love both her and him, but I had never heard this song before. I think you understand it correctly, a misunderstanding between the 2 of them. She thinks he wants to leave, and he’s like, ‘What? What are you talking about? Things are fine..?’ It really is a sweet, but sad song. Thank you for sharing it
