Today was an interesting day...

So, I wondered how long it would take before I mentioned my love of the Plain White T's.  Well here we are in blog number two and now you know I am quite possibly their biggest fan.  Is anyone familiar with the radio show "Fox All Access with host Chris Leary"?? I only heard it while driving to see a friend of mine.  It was a quiet kind of Sunday morning and I happened to tune into 104.1 and the show was playing.  I figured I would listen to it. The Plain White T's had just released the first single, Rhythm of Love, off their upcoming CD and I thought that they might just happen to play it for some reason or another.  Well I ended up hearing a song called "Jar of Hearts" and then after it played, Chris Leary mentioned some chick's name and that she had called in saying "You Gotta Hear This".  It is a segment they do on the show each week.  People call in and leave a message saying "You Gotta Hear This" and if they pick your song, then they send you stuff.  So I decided that I would call and suggest Rhythm of Love.  And today I get a call from some lady calling from Fox All Access letting me know that they played Rhythm of Love on last week's show.  They are sending me three free books!!  The Carrie Diaries by Candace Bushnell, Getting Pretty Back by Molly Ringwald, and Bedwetter by Sarah Silverman!! Yay for free books!!!!

I also follow the Plain White T's on twitter.  All of the members (except for Dave) have twitter accounts.  And when they tweet, it goes directly to my phone.  I am devoted, what can I say.  Some may view it as being a little stalkerish, I call it being thorough.  I LOVE them.  Anyway, not too long after I called the radio show, Chris Leary had them in the studio for an interview.  I choose to believe, based on the turn of events today, that I made this happen.  That somehow my call saying "You Gotta Hear This" is what made him want to have them in.  And Cupcake, you can tell me I'm wrong but I refuse to believe it!!!  Here is a link to that very interview....

Plain White T's Interview that I made Happen

On to other exciting news....are you sitting down??  I FINALLY got a hana ami-loom!!! Yup folks, its mine!!

I can't wait to start cranking out flowers!  I am very very excited.  One other thing that I find particularly noteworthy, while out buying craft supplies my sister and I came across blackboard spray paint ON CLEARANCE!!!! Marked down from eight bucks to just TWO!!!  We bought two cans.  I hadn't even planned on doing anything with the stuff....but now, I will have to rethink that plan!!!  Oddly enough, one of the main reasons I was out shopping in the first place was to pick up a bottle of E-6000 glue.  I managed to find so many other things, I completely forgot to get the one thing I really needed!!!
