Today's song was hard to pick just because I don't know what kind of music you think I like. Though, 9 times out of 10 you'd be right. I like just about every type of music because I feel that it has a place in the world. What I did was ask Phil about what type of music he was surprised to learn that I liked. He answered with explicit rap. Now, in my defense, I don't listen to a lot of it. However, my senior year of high school, my BFF Jess and I would hang out ALL the time, especially in the car since we had so much marching band stuff to do. Well, I had recently purchased the 50 Cent "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" CD and we would listen to it. Every day, we would listen to it. Why in the world would two 17 year-old white girls like this? I don't know how to answer that. I do know that one day, we decided that the song "P.I.M.P." should be our theme song. That day, after band practice, we sat in the parking lot of our high school and played the song over and over until we learned all the lyrics so we could sing it all the time. Again, I don't know why. So... I still like it and it reminds me of my senior year. However, with it being explicit, many people don't understand why I like it. *shrugs* That's why you can't judge a book by it's cover :)

Moving on, I saw this video at Theresa's blog yesterday and I just loved it! I agree with her that it's definitely one of the most creative things I've ever seen. Plus, I may be purchasing the song soon... I liked that too!

I don't know about you, but I've always loved buttons. My mom used to keep a small box of spare buttons for the various coats, blouses, etc. we had in the house. I love seeing what creative things people can do with buttons! Here are a few button pictures for you that I found here.

Happy Tuesday!

Peace to you,
