I'm Up All Night To Get Lucky….At The Grammy's!

I planned on being able to tell you all of the details about the very amazing Evolution Fitness Now Conference and TheFitExpo that I attended on Saturday but instead it’s going to have to wait because I went to THE GRAMMY AWARDS last night!

At the Grammy’s with my friend Josie.

If we’re friends on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, this isn’t news to you at all. I might have blown up the internet a little bit with my posts (and gave spoilers to the West Coast – sorry). I thought it was a great show and I was thrilled to have attended this amazing event due to an angelic friend who gifted these tickets to me (and my lovely friend Josie – since Jay couldn’t attend).

It’s Tunes For Tuesday!

Today’s Tune is by the band, Travis (I didn’t even mean for the alliteration but I’ll take it). The 2001 album “The Invisible Band” was one of my favorites at the time. Travis is […]

1. Unbelievers (Vampire Weekend)

This earworm has been stuck in my head for a few weeks and recently got me through a tough run. I understand that the line, “You love the sea” is rumored to based on a character in the movie “Rushmore” – a movie I liked immensely when I saw it but haven’t seen it in awhile. Give it a try and tell me if you can walk away without singing or bopping around to it. […]

Tunes For Tuesday – Band-Aid

Welcome To Tunes For Tuesday!

If you know me at all, today’s Tunes For Tuesday pick is an absolute no-brainer. Band Aid released this song in 1984 and it is now a classic (it’s almost 30 years old – OMG!). For as long as I live […]
