All right, this is my last "Five things I"m digging right now" for 2011 and for good. It's been fun doing these, but I want a new series in the new year. Anyway, here are five things I'm digging right now.

1. BlackMusicTube: I have no idea why I'm just now finding out about this site, but I was trying to find out where to listen to Tyrese's new CD "Open Invitation" after it didn't download correctly on my mp3 player. This site is even better than listening to AOL's Listening Party because there are more CDs to choose from, and I don't have to blow my money on stuff I don't like without listening to it.

2. T-Pain's "Revolver" CD: This is the first CD I've enjoyed straight through from him. I usually just like the singles, but he did a really great job on this one. I still remember seeing him live in concert a couple years ago. I became an all-around fan of his as soon as I saw him live in action and stood up the entire time he was onstage.
3. Lake Michigan from a bus route: I normally hate taking buses, but I was donating some clothes to a charity bin and decided to take the bus to work since it was close to me. I've been hooked on taking a bus route ever since. I like to look at Lake Michigan every morning on my way to work. It puts me in a better state of mind than cringing at random smells and blocking out obnoxiously loud cell phone talkers on the Red Line.

4. "Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned" movie: I ran across this film while hanging out with my great great aunt, a friend of hers and my mother. We talked through half of the movie and stared at the rest of it. I got it on Netflix to see what I missed, and I enjoyed this film. I usually stay up on anything Laurence Fishburne is in, but I apparently missed this one. Highly recommend it. Great plot all the way through.

5. AmazonBasics 3-Button USB Wired Mouse: The texture of this mouse, the way it easily moves across a desk surface and the user friendly way it's packaged makes it an easy favorite. I got it from the Amazon Vine program, but I would pay for one of these things with no problem.
