Ha, I started my “Things I’m excited about in February!” post… and this is all I came up with:
- Seeing Styx with Rachel!
- A massage
- Continuing to workout more, eat healthy, and feel good
So yeah, another quiet month ahead! I’m sure we’ll have some fun dates with friends, but we don’t have anything “big” planned. We’re still being cautious with spending since the government staying open (and me getting paid) is not a sure thing.
So let’s talk about music, since that is the top thing I am excited about in February (STYX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!).
Gina told me about these “versus” playlists that her gym does. One band versus another, and the songs go back and forth. I decided to make some for my Friday class. So far, I have:
- Led Zepplin vs The Rolling Stones
- Styx vs Aerosmith
- Van Halen vs ZZTop
- Journey vs Foreigner
I am thinking about:
- Mötley Crüe vs Def Leppard
- Metallica vs Kiss
- Rush vs …?
- Bon Jovi vs U2
- Bruno Mars vs Maroon 5
Any other suggestions for me? I have A LOT of Ariana Grande. And Christina Aguilera. I just don’t think my class would appreciate those two as much. Ha.
In other news, we got about an inch or so of snow overnight and the roads were a mess on my commute to teach. AGAIN. When I was leaving to go home, I couldn’t stop my car for the stop sign at the end of the street I teach on, so I just slid on to the two lane highway… luckily no one was coming (which is shocking – I usually have to wait for a while to get on the highway).
Then when I got home I saw our mailbox was destroyed even more from this morning’s plow.
Sigh.
Happy Friday!
I don’t have a relevant photo, unless you want to see a more messed up mailbox, so here are the cats!
First of all, I would be so disappointed to hear Bon Jovi vs U2 becuase I love U2 but can’t stand Bon Jovi…LOL.
I can’t believe they keep nailing your mailbox!! You should call the village. They replace our if they get damaged by plows.
They will be very divisive playlists!
I called the township. They don’t usually replace them but are going to look at ours.
Run DMC vs ? Actually I have no idea but the song It’s Tricky was playing during our workout yesterday and it was fun to workout to. I’ll find out if it’s fun to run to as well since I added it to my playlist. I like the “vs.” ideas – anything to distract during a workout! 🙂
Oh yeah! That would be good! I love working out to that! And Christmas in Hollis in December, ha.
Yes, all distractions are welcome to make class move along! 😉
I think my old trainer, Katy, did a full class of Britney vs Christina. Please please please do that on a Friday morning. I’m sure Adam and Terry would just LOVE that hahaha 🙂
You could also do DLR Van Halen vs. Van Hagar
Yesterday my boot camp did a throwback playlist that was all 90’s hip hop (so stuff I actually knew) and it was a lot of fun. Just about every song made me laugh and then think “I can’t believe this is old enough to be a throwback”
OMG they would hate it so much! Ha ha ha. That would be pretty fun. Maybe I can torture Monday night with that.
Oh yeah!
That sounds like a fun playlist! What were some of the songs on it?
I remember one of the studios around here did a Rent vs Hamilton class once but it was sold out by the time I saw it. I guess it was well received :). Love the cat photo!
Oh! That is fun! I like that idea! I hope it comes around again and you get a chance to go.
Thanks! 🙂
Bummer about your mailbox! Scary about not being able to stop for the stop sign…. I’m glad you were okay, but I hope that the winter weather stops causing you so much grief!
I love the idea of song battles for workouts! Never heard of that! Personally, I would pit Madonna against someone, but I’m pretty sure no one listens to Madonna anymore, ever…LOL!
They ended up fixing it that afternoon (and not telling me, lol), so, yay! And I hope the weather lets up for a bit too. I’ve had bad timing this week!
Oh! That is a really good idea. We could definitely do classic Madonna vs someone… hmm. Who? Mariah Carey?
Madonna vs Michael (Jackson)!
Yes! That would be epic!
Ughhh, every time you post a cuddle pile photo of your cats, I want to rush out and immediately get Eloise a sister or brother. So sweet!
Have you been casually looking for her sibling?! 🙂
