There are some songs. I'll hear them for the first time and I will instantly know that even 20 years from now, if life is rough and you feel like there's no way out...hearing the song will remind me of better times and lift me up. I just found one of those. Putting it on a CD so that I can give it to my grandkids some day. Beautiful...
Happy Saturday love!!!
P.S. - Go Ghana/USA!!!! Really tough to make up my mind - both are underdogs, both are fighters, both feel like my own.

'Mornin Sunshine!
Apologies for not writing/updating in AGES! I promised a few readers of the blog that I wouldn't bore you guys with my World Cup updates - it's all over my facebook and twitter, so really it would be awfully redundant to make you suffer through all of it on here too. Lots of stuff to blame for my absence - WORLD CUP, travel, leaving Zambia :(((, moving into a new apartment, not-knowing-where-to-start, and sheer laziness. Many many apologies for that...but I am back in the US, land of the interesting and high-speed internet, so I promise to jump right back where I left off.
Speaking of jumping, I've gotten back into the habit of going to bed by 11:30PM and waking up nice and early. So many benefits - so much more time to get stuff done, I can fit in yoga in the morning, I have enough time for multiple cups of coffee before work, and I can watch lots of very handsome shirtless men prep themselves for their morning run by the river ^^ Only con I've managed to discover is that I get hungry lots in the morning. If anyone has any good ideas for post-breakfast snacks, do let me know.
To really wake up though, one needs a sick song that makes it worth getting up for. This is mine. I know some people like waking up to the sounds of French accordion, or folk guitar or Joni Mitchell...me? Not so much. This is my wakey-wakey song.
Righto so what are some of your early morning tunes? Any quirks? "Mmbop" as your alarm tone? Pavarotti while the coffee brews? Spice Girls while you brush your teeth? Go on, you can tell me :)
