I saved the lamp.

I had a truly special moment here in Sweden. I was able to rescue “the lamp” that was, so many years ago, tossed aside like …well, a used lamp.

I’ll keep this short… in Sweden garbage-picking is just another form of recycling. At the end of the school term, people just dump stuff they don’t want anymore in the garbage room of our apartment block. Lots of people at my work were mentioning how they have found some of their current furniture in the garbage. (I’m not joking). So Scott and I took out the trash one day to scope out the garbage room. We found a lamp. We felt bad for the lamp. That is because we’re crazy.

We’ve given it a good home.
