“Look what I can do with my feet”

I love this song by Current Pop Sensation Chris Brown:

(Here’s the actual music video–unable to embed it.)

My favorite line is just after the 1:50 mark, when he says, “Look what I can do with my feet!”

It reminds me of my sister Jenny who died. She was schizophrenic and would often say the craziest things. Once she called my dad up at 10pm to tell him she’d learned how to tap dance. She put the phone on the floor so he could hear her dance.

She was wearing socks.

I love syrupy pop. I wasn’t sure when David Archuleta was on American Idol if I’d actually like anything he released after the show. So far he’s only released one single, but I love it. It’s such cheesy, teenyboppery music (and I swear it had to originally have been written for a girl to sing), but I just love his voice so much I don’t care.

Edit: The official video won’t embed, so above is a fan video for it. Here’s the official video.

Haha, I hadn’t actually seen the video until now. It’s almost like a church movie. (He’s Mormon.)

The other day Elijah said he couldn’t imagine me and his dad as grandparents. I asked why, is it because we’re just like big teenagers, ourselves? Nathaniel said something about me still going to metal shows when I’m a granny.

I just caught a minute of some countdown show Nathaniel was watching, 100 funniest movies, or something. Whoever was commenting said all you care about when you’re a teenager is music, TV, and videogames.

That’s all I care about too. Did you know the new Rock Band came out this week?

    I like the tap-dancing socks story.

    Darn—it won’t let me watch the David Archuleta. What’s the name of the song?

    Anything exciting on the new Rock Band?

    I updated the post with a video that will actually play. Song is called “Crush.”

    Lots of good stuff on the new Rock Band, I’m impressed. Fleetwood Mac, Duran Duran, Megadeth, Metallica, Bad Company, Billy Idol, Bikini Kill, Devo. Really a great variety of cool stuff.

    Dude, tap dancing in socks is hard. I’ve tried it. Slippery!
