Technology? I love it… once someone fixes it for me.

iPhone? I has it… because DR had had one for a year prior to me getting it and I fully got to see what it was like
Xbox, Wii, Giant Plasma TV, iMac, iTouch, iPod, digital camera, website, flick’r, etc: I has it all… again because of DR

And so it goes in our home, I probably would only have a landline and stationary on my desk if it wasn’t for DR. I love it, but so not interested in knowing how it works that if someone doesn’t sell me on it and shows me exactly how to use it, I probably won’t want/need.

This morning while watching Coronation Street and the endless commercials that come with it, I was reminded how much I love songs from 2 different commercials: Sears Christmas commercial has a great sad christmas song playing where the guy singer talks about “it’s not your sleighride” in it… love it… then there the Debt Canada commercial with the girls shopping and shopping and getting home to find out she’s been evicted for not paying her debts… the song is fun and flippy and talks about how she wants two scoops, not just one, etc…

I wanted to find the two songs to add to my iTunes collection… I first went on YouTube and did search for Sears Canada Christmas Commercial, nothing, then I did Not Your Sleighride, nothing. I tried with Two Scoops for the other commercial, nothing… frurstration building in, I gave up… They obviously do not exist… plus I found these Sleigh Ride version I didn’t have yet, so I’m listening to all the different recordings, so fun… totally forgetting what I was looking for in the first place until DR got annoyed with all the xmas sleigh ride tunes. He asked what the hell I was doing and I told him I was trying to find these two songs…

I swear before 60 seconds had passed, he had the title and singer for each song for me…. like some magical internet fairy came to his help.

Two Scoops by Michelle Harding, which I couldn’t find on iTunes
Donna and Blitzen by Badly Drawn Out Boy from the About A Boy soundtrack, which I promptly bought.

Oh yeah, it’s been playing on repeat since.

It’s the little joys that reminds me daily how I married well.

Here’s the Two Scoops commercial:

Fun song but not available to buy.. yet.
