Music to My Ears

My dad use to hold me upside down
to "dance on the ceiling."

You know when you're running on the treadmill and your favorite song comes across your shuffle and you want to jam along but people might stare?!  Or when you're driving home and you crank up the music when you hear that song you haven't heard in forever, or atleast since yesterday?!  Or when that dreaded alarm goes off and you're still exhausted, but somehow that one song pulls you from that tiredness to dance around in your bed and sing loudly at 5:45 AM?!  (Yeah, that's never happened to me either!) ;) 



The favorite for today are those songs that make you escape reality and take you to another place: your childhood, the college night when you and your friends had a dance party in your dorm room, or the first dance at your wedding reception.  Music always seems to fit the mood that you're in and I love that about it.  It seems to know what's needed at exactly the right moment.


So the next time you hear your favorite song or the song that transports you back in time, turn it up, pretend that no one is looking, and sing along loudly (and out of tune if you're me)!!  Because that's exactly what I did today and why I continue to love those 4 1/2 minutes of joy throughout my day.  

College dance night selection of choice!
