I want a leg lamp!
30 November 2008
| I was looking around that SpringWidgets place where I got the countdown widget and ran across this one! This thing reminds me of the movie “A Christmas Story” as Ralphie’s Old Man won a leg shaped lamp as an award at his work. What man wouldnt want one of these, no matter how tacky?! lol Men are really dumb creatures. But easily amused too. ;)
<–by the way, if you click on the chain the lamp lights! ;) |
Love widgets. I found one that was a Felix the Cat clock, eyes rocking w/ ea. swing of the tail per second.
Quite some years back, my mom and dad bought a vacation spot on a nearby lake. The owner had rented the trailer out to some college kids, and it was pretty well trashed, but they left most of the furniture that was either the kid’s or was what the owner put in to qualify as “furnished”.
There was a lamp that I begged from my mom and she laughingly gave it to me. The base was a native, perhaps African or Polynesian woman, dark skinned and clad in a flowing, loose robe and she was carrying a big basket of fruit on her head. I had plans on painting her, skin tones, coloring the fruit and basket and all that, and decided I’d put that off until the future and was carrying it (and I really called the lamp “her”) out to my storage building and accidentally dropped her it.
That really bothered me, as I really wanted to have that lamp in my house.
herBumped you back up so I think you can edit your comments now, I had set everyone back a while ago to make some site changes and forgot to put them back up ;)
You know i really did want one of those leg lamps when I was younger, I have this thing for legs.. :)
