This Song is About the First Man to Harness the Power of Watermelon in Candy Form
John Mayer, you are a weird kid.

Katie & I went to see John Mayer & Sheryl Crowe on Sunday night. The above was his introduction to the song I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You). He did a few of those. The first time he started out with "This song is about what makes time travel possible." I was confused. I didn't know John Mayer had a Flux Capacitor song. Turns out My Stupid Mouth is about time travel. You know, "how time is not linear. String theory."

Also, the hair is getting far too long. He was so adorable when he first came on the scene and now the hair's starting to look girly. Like a damned dirty hippie.



Plus, he makes weird faces when he sings:



This is not one of those "caught at a weird moment" things. This is basically his constant singing face.

Katie mentioned him dating Jessica Simpson, and I told her about how he had a fit about how she was just using him for publicity.

Did you hear about John Mayer's "If You Date John Mayer" list? From a Rolling Stone interview: "Twenty-four-hour phone-sex assistance. If there's a cute girl in the front row, I'm gonna run off stage and call you." "You have to run every single fantasy you've ever had through me. You'll never cheat. You see a cute guy at the gym, I'll be him. Or we'll get him. I don't care."

If I haven't mentioned it before--weird kid.

Which prompted the conversation of: If you were dating a rock star/musician who toured, at what point in the relationship would you feel comfortable quitting your job to travel along. And what would you do? Because I think there would be a lot of boring time along the way. Katie & I would both write. Either try at a book, or try to sell a column to a music/entertainment magazine. I'm going to call my column "Along for the Ride" and I have stated it in my blog, so it is officially mine, do not try to steal it. Just because it's based on a theoretical relationship does not mean it's not mine, mkay? :)

Sheryl Crowe sounds different live. Her voice isn't as deep. I wonder if they do that with editing, or if she just tries harder to sound like that on the albums. She brought out JM to do the boy part on Favorite Mistake. Katie spent the whole performance dreading All I Wanna Do. "Oh no, this is it." No it isn't. She didn't play it. I heard once that song is about how much she hated St. Louis, so maybe not appropriate for the venue.

But beforehand we had dinner at Dave & Buster's. We were the queens of all trivianess. I like skeeball better (which we also played), but the trivia gets more tickets. In the end, our tickets bought these awesome guns (two each):



And a bunch of giant pixy stix (and a massive sugar rush at the concert).

I took my guns to work. They work beautifully. I can shoot the door (or people coming in the door) from my desk. Plus the dart is sticky. Like a Wacky Wall Walker.

On Monday, I was at my desk, and Last Dance by Donna Summer came on the radio. Since that is a good morning song, I went into Chris's office and we had an impromptu dance party. That is the only thing of note to happen at work this week. Tomorrow is no bosses day.

Had dinner out last night with Debbie & some of the women from the last place Debbie & I worked together. It was a fun evening. Got to hear all kinds of horror stories. Too, too amusing.

It's DVD Tuesday! Grey's Anatomy & The Office both came out on DVD today. Best Buy has the best price on Grey's Anatomy that I found, if anybody was looking. Next week is Gilmore Girls Season Six (best $ at Walmart).
