You Make Me Feel Like (Sock) Dancing

So when I'm blue, or sometimes not when I'm blue but I am cooking and need a dance break, I dance around my kitchen in my socks. It is seriously the only thing that I find lifts my mood when I'm home alone, dwelling on stuff in my brain that I can not realistically deal with or solve. This happens to me more often than I'd like to admit. I think I need to create a "sock dancing playlist" on my iPhone. It would consist of this stuff:

Joy Division - She's Lost Control

The Ramones - Beat on the Brat

Aretha Franklin - Eleanor Rigby

The Cure - Close To Me

The Who - Out in the Street

New York Dolls - Looking For A Kiss

Sleigh Bells - Run The Heart

The Jackson Five - The Love You Save

Little Denise - Check Me Out

The Gorillaz - Dare

The Staple Singers - I'll Take You There

Wanda Jackson - Baby Loves Him

I could go on and on. But this would make for a righteous kitchen dance party.

Happy picture of the day: my new car emblem. I swear if levels of nerddom were rewarded with matching levels of super powers I'd be able to fly, and become invisible by now.

    Thanks Nathan!

    I actually went on a Talking Heads and Pretenders kick today and forgot to make the playlist.

    @Heather,
    It works doesn't it? Until it doesn't work. That's when I know I'm in big trouble.

    @Jax,
    I am huge on car dancing and singing as loud as possible. :) Hope your weekend is going great too. I had a wedding last night, and I got up early to start prep for brunch with some girlfriends from high school.

    I'll admit I don't know half the names on your playlist, but I'll also admit that singing at the top of my lungs in the car instantly puts me in an awesome mood (until someone cuts me off, but whatever.)

      Oh yes. I will mid-chorus turn in to strand of cuss words that could make a sailor blush, if someone near me on the road is driving like an ass. My road rage runs deep.
