If my body would allow me, I would run a half marathon everyday. Not necessarily for the health benefits (sorry mom), but for the all of the things my mind is able to sort through during each and every run. I swear, each important thought, idea and life decision has come to me on my morning therapy session some people refer to as running. This very blog came to me on mile 7 (that's always a good mile). When I'm not running...well, my brain likes to take time off (sorry dad).
Today it poured on my run. A downpour of chilly, spring rain. It was delightful. So instead of turning on one of my many pre-planned playlists (I have a music problem) - I turned my iPod on shuffle. It seemed like a shuffle kind of day, and I want to share with you what the iPod gods decided to play because it was perfect:
Two of Us - Beatles
Telephone - Lady Gaga/ Beyonce
Chicago - Sufjan Stevens
Easy Silence - The Dixie Chicks
That's Life - Frank Sinatra
Chasing Paper - Rhianna
One Love - Bob Marley
If you want to sing out - Cat Stevens
Shipping up to Boston - Drop Kick Murphy's
Strawberry Wine - Deana Carter
White Christmas - Bing Crosby (very random, yet still good)
Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams
Italian Restaurant - Billy Joel
Magical Mystery Tour - Tufts Beezlebubs
Tenuousness - Andrew Bird
Will it Grow - Jakob Dylan
I love random music selections. And random blog posts.

Describe this Rihanna song to me...the lyrics...b/c I suspect it might be "Live Your Life" feat. T.I.? It's the only song I can think of where she refers to chasing paper ("you steady chasin' that paper, just live your life...")
HAHA - Yes, it's "Live your Life"!
I just always refer to it as Chasing Paper for some odd reason (mainly bc I don't really understand if she is saying you should chase paper or not in the song...but I digress...)
I support the randomness! And the Super Burbs!
Oh dognbird - you are precious!
