I Gotta Move....

If you're looking for some new tunes to run to, these are some of my favorites! So far, this has been a good combo for me. They have a fairly steady tempo that helps me with pacing. They're also just good songs in general. Enjoy!

1. The Idea of You (Live)- Dave Matthews Band

2. Marching Bands of Manhattan- Death Cab for Cutie

3. Send It On- Disney's friends for change (go ahead and make fun-- I really like this song haha)

4. Run With It- Easton Corbin

5. Do You Remember?- Earth, Wind & Fire (Always helps me remember JMC's bday!)

6. Wait Til You See My Smile- Alicia Keys

Editor's note: I originally had "Stronger" by Brittney Spears here... Poor decision. So now I skip to:

7. Crawl- Chris Brown

8. Fader- The Temper Traps (an iTunes freebie!)

9. Superstar- Lupe Fiasco (for a little end-of-run swagger)

10. Your Love is My Drug- Ke$ha

Home again, Home again

So I moved home on Sunday and it's been great. Today was a good day. I spent most of it working on job applications (I think I set a personal record for number completed in one day). I got to go on a late afternoon run and it was great! The run wasn't a very long or fast run but it was much needed.

Rain set in early this morning and stuck around until lunch so the temp had dropped a good bit and the ground was soggy by the time I made it outside. I went on the little walking trail in our neighborhood and it was so great! The trees and undergrowth are all green with the spring and the good rain from this morning. It's like the ferns were giving one more good showing before they wilt under the summer heat that will set in soon.

A podcast by the Rev. Brian Sorgenfrei on John 9 made it especially good. And if you're looking for a little pep in your step, check out Shakira's "This Time for Africa"-- it's one of my favorites!

Soon to come: Cinderella and Graduation!
