And now, following a 13-hour workday and a 5-mile walk to get my first exercise in days, I crawl into my own bed for the first time in 5 days as well.  Sleeping on an air mattress on the floor may be functional and may allow my father the luxury of my bed, but it doesn’t do much to really recharge my own batteries. 

In the meantime, please enjoy this.  It’s the homemade video for the new song from OK Go, a highly underrated band whose first album I love and should’ve gotten more attention than it did and whose second album is coming out next month.  Mind you, the band is calling this “the 50 cent video” for a good reason—and not because 50 Cent the rapper was involved, because he wasn’t.  It literally cost them 50 cents to make, and that was about the cost of the actual film they used to tape the video.  They choreographed the whole thing themselves, then set up a stationary camera on a tripod in one of the guys’ backyards and did their thing.  Trust me, it’s worth a look.
