I think my iHome clock radio is haunted. It seems like more often than not, it will wake up about 15 minutes or so before the alarm is set to go off, play a quick snippet of music, and then go back to sleep. I swear I’m not imagining this. Although it’s strange that the iPod’s backlight doesn’t go on at the same time, like when the alarm goes off. Hmmm. I dunno. Maybe I’m hearing my neighbor’s car radio as he/she heads for work or something. It’s perplexing. I don’t like waking up before the alarm goes off.

So could someone please tell me what this t-shirt is supposed to mean? N found it on the web and asked me what it meant, and I had no idea. “I Love Lamp”? Is that new teenage slang for some kind of drug? The only thing we could figure out is that if you say it a certain way, it could be “I Lava Lamp” which is kind of funny, but I don’t think it’s the point. I’m just old and clueless. I guess the point is that there is no point.

Jogged Today: No. I think I have a slight muscle pull in the calf of my right leg from running yesterday and I want to give it a rest. Plus, I wanted to get to work early today.
Today’s Weight: 163 lbs
Lunch Yesterday: Homemade ham/turkey sandwich.
Pet Peeve of the Day: I got home last night and my TV wasn’t working with my Dish HD satellite receiver. I finally traced it down to the $54 HDMI cable I bought at Best Buy when I got the TV. Luckily, I had that extra cable I bought for $12 at Big Lots last month. I bet it holds up better than the more expensive one. I wish I hadn’t spent $54 on a bum cable. Back to the store it goes!

Latre.

    Re: “I Love Lamp” — obviously you’ve never seen the movie “Anchorman.”

    Well, I’d plug my t-shirt store on CafePress here but apparently a lot of those need more than one glance to grok… stick to polo shirts, is my advice.
    (unless you WANT to wear a “Taft-Sherman in ‘08!” t-shirt for months and have about 4 people actually get it?)
