Highlights from the soundtrack of my life.
I’m still on season four and i’m on the episode with the website launch. I really dog Michael singing about going on a trip with Jim (which was actually incorrect and really funny):
And then Andy was trying to get Angela to go out with him:
I am really digging this show!!! And I love how Pam and Jim are dating!!!
I just finished season three and I am really excited to start season four!
I really liked when Michael started to play this song! It’s my favorite and one that always makes me cry except it isn’t what he did it!:
I am still on season three. I just finished watching the Christmas party episode. I think the music during this season was pretty awesome! I absolutely love hearing myself laugh and every one of these songs make me laugh so much because I really dig them! It started with Jim saying at the Stanford branch;
And then there was the merging of the offices:
And then Carol dumped Michael:
I thought the Christmas parties of Pam and Karen and Angela‘s party was absolutely hilarious!!!
I was completely on track to finish season two today of my binge of The Office. But then I saw the Valentine’s Day episode where Michael goes to New York to meet the new CFO. And then he showed his video montage of his office in Scranton:
I especially liked Jan‘s face during the video but I will have to say the song choice = EPIC!:
I love how my ultimate, favorite band ends up in random pop culture scenarios. I know I am extremely late to this office party but I’m here now and Sean tells me that he knew I would like this show just once I gave it a chance. I completely love how I laugh outloud continuously!
My brother, Steve, nominated me to participate in sharing 10 albums that have shaped my musical taste. I Just shared my fifth album with my Facebook friends. Yesterday, my brother shared this album as one of his albums that shaped his musical taste:
That is a great album! I commented that I was going to share that album because I really dig it! I really dug it when I was young. I dug it when I was young because my bedroom was directly above his bedroom and I heard that I am bum often when he listen to it. My favorite song is:
I haven’t heard this song in so long, but I really dug that it is one of his albums!
A friend/former colleague, and Facebook friend shared this video yesterday on Facebook regarding the coronavirus and washing your hands:
I clicked the heart button when I saw it because that song has ALWAYS been my jam! In fact, only a few days ago, I remembered a random memory from my first do years teaching and I told Sean about it.
I told him that one evening, A few of my friends/former colleagues, Jaci, Suzie, someone else, and me went to a bar to watch our friend/colleague, Shannon, sing with her band. They were a cover band and we sat at a table upfront. The band did an excellent job and she really could sing!
She started walking around as the band started to play, “ I Will Survive“ and of course, I was jammin’ And she thrust the microphone in my face so I HAD TO continue to jam! On Monday morning, she walked into my classroom and told me that I didn’t know I could sing! I just laughed and said that I had to do with the microphone in my face. I used to be in plays in high school, and I sing in the shower and in the car. Young Sean thought I sounded pretty good but nothing serious.
I have forgotten about that time singing in the bar for about 12 or 13 years! I’m not sure what sparked this memory in the beginning of the week but I finally remembered what song I sang and then to see her Facebook post and it made me laugh, made me think fondly of the memory, and took my mind off this pandemic that is kind of freaking me out a little bit because I am a person with a compromised immune system.
My Mom is an EXCELLENT caregiver to me and I do pretty well with washing my hands and the whole “Social distancing” thing. but, since yesterday, this song has been in my head. Now, I will sing it the next time I wash my hands!
Nate, Peter, and M.J. talked about Jalen Hurts today and Kyle who was in Chicago talked about him too. He is a quarterback prospect for the draft. He was the quarterback for the Oklahoma Sooners.
Kyle suggested John Mellencamp and, “Hurts so Good” but Nate suggested R.E.M., “Everybody Hurts” I liked that suggestion more! When Nate Boyer was on the show during the next segment with Jay Glazer we’re talking about their project, MVP (Merging Players and Veterans) commented on that song too. So here it is: my 65th song inspired by GMFB:
I didn’t see this gem of a segment until the rebroadcast because I woke up late this morning:
So, of course that is my 64th tune inspired by GMFB!:
So, yesterday, as I took pictures of the pictures that were in the album that my Mom brought upstairs, I listened to music on my phone. I chose to listen to Kings of Leon. I listened to the album, Only by the Night about three or four times:
I remembered listening to the CD on loop in my car for months when it came out. Sean and I were still living in Fairlane East at that time. So when I would get home and would slow down to roll by the guard shack, I would wave to, “Benny-Benny.” I thought of him as I cropped the pictures. I decided that I really dug one particular song that I had at but forgotten about:
I laughed at a particular line, and it’s my favorite now!:
I love that line! I told Sean that, “I am no expert but I don’t think that’s how it works.” He laughed. I thought about that song this morning as well, after I texted my Mom, I played it again. It got me thinking that Benny has not even accepted my friend request on Facebook! But I think that’s because the last update he had was in 2014 and I didn’t join until 2016.
His profile picture:
Well, you can’t see but I met him with really short hair but over the years, he grew it out. I always told him he reminded me of Caleb Followill, the lead singer of Kings of Leon:
I remember that I texted him when I was watching, Ms. Potter because I told him that he looked like Ewan McGregor because he does. He told me that he has heard that before.
I don’t know what his hair length or facial hair status is but hearing Kings of Leon reminds me of him as well, it’s in the eyes.p
I think it may have been Tuesday when Jane Slater, who is sitting in for Kay Adams, talked about a combine prospect having this smoothie with Colleen Wolfe:
So, she made this exact smoothie with the guys in the break room. I did not see this segment until I watched the Week in Review today. I couldn’t believe that Jane Slater sang this song as she poured the red Gatorade in:
This song is my JAM and it used to be a ringtone for my house in number 2003 I think. U2 is my ultimate, favorite band and I loved hearing her sing a line in the refrain of this song even just for a moment. I’m sorry I didn’t get to see the segment live!
