way back whensday. my man-boy.


I always said that I would marry someone just like my grandfather.


Little did I know, there was not another like him.

I found the next closest man-boy.

And married him.

Back in November of 2006, we traveled with another couple for a four night/three state My Morning Jacket mini-tour. I had a killer sinus-infection and plugged my dripping nose with tissue for the entire four days. They played the exact same set list every night. Jim James graced us with fun facts about each city that we visited. Knoxville is apparently known for their "sun-sphere" and should have an avid interest in preserving this useless tower. Atlanta has a building that Jim wanted to get on top of-- if anyone could possibly make that happen for him. Charleston? Yeah, I don't really remember what he googled about Charleston.

This video is from our night off between shows. We rented an ultra-swanky hotel room (you know, the ones that you vomit if your face accidentally touches the bedspread??) and locked ourselves in. I was disgustingly sick and laid in bed, tissues stuck in my nostrils, singing along with Knoxville's classic rock station on the clock radio.

Brandon? My husband? He danced.


p.s.-- way back whensday. is a feature of Twinfatuation's crafty blog.

Omigosh, that is hysterical! Oooof --- have stayed in hotels/motels where you really don't want to know too much about the room's history...in those instances, an impaired sense of smell may not be such a bad thing! ;)

Thanks so much for playing along with Way Back When-esday---great having you on the reverie road with us!
