What's Your Theme Song For Today?
The sun is out today in the Raleigh metro area. If you know me well, then you know I can only go about 2 days without sunshine before I start to eat paste and climb the walls.
Today, there is a special skip in my step. The sun is beaming. I'm working from home. I'm waiting (ever so impatiently) for my website to be finished with its new look. And IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!
Most people know that Friday is my "Sharpen The Saw" day. If you are a 7 Habits follower, this will make sense to you. So part of my sharpening the saw is that I sing theme songs - well almost any kind of song around the house in my pajamas. Once I've had that third cup of coffee and a handful of Apple Jacks, I am a teenager again (at least in my mind).
It got me thinking about that show "Ally McBeal". (Am I showing my age again?). I LOVED that show. I swear I cried when it went out of syndication. Ally would imaging Barry White signing at the oddest moments. She was quirky and just a wee bit mentally unstable . . . hummm, no I don't identify with that at all. :o)
Anyway, it got me thinking about theme songs. Songs that represent certain moments in your life. Like when you need to be pumped up, you might hum, "Eye of the Tiger", or the theme from Rocky (just pick one, I think there' s like 5 of them).
Well today I am caught between theme songs, I'm feeling a little Aretha Franklin - so I've been screaming R.E.S.P.E.C.T. all morning (much to the dismay of my husband George, who is off today). Then I switched gears and started singing "Simply The Best" by Tina Turner. I love that feisty woman.
So tell me, if you had to choose a theme song for yourself today, what would yours be?

Great posts!
@ Carole: Once you make it through the Social Media learning curve, you'll change your theme song to "We Will Rock You". :o) I promise.

As the other inSide NetworX start to gain traction and grow I find myself whistling "Don't Worry be Happy" - I then turn on sports radio to drown myself out.
