Wow! It's been 5 years since I wrote on here. I figured it was time to bring it back! So much has happened since 2016. I met the love of my life, moved to Baltimore, got married, and work for my Alma Mater, DeSales University.
I look forward to posting more often, and bringing back favorite songs and clips! Trust me, I won't be as dramatic as I used to be...haha. Happy Monday!
As most of you know, I am a huge follower of the band Postmodern Jukebox. I listen to them 24/7 and I am a huge fan. Here is my submission for their 2016 #PMJSearch contest! Please like and share, I would be so happy for the opportunity to collaborate with them and Tambourine Guy!!
I had a dream about you last night, for some reason this song has been playing nonstop on Pandora. So I don't know if you and I will ever speak again, but it was nice to see you again in my dreams. Hope all is well RM.
One More Night, Maroon 5
You and I go hard at each other like we are going to war.
So many wonderful scenes from this Christmas movie. I could totally post the "Cue Cards scene". However, I do love this moment, and could totally relate to Natalie. I mean, who wouldn't want Hugh Grant to have a hit man hunt down your asshole ex-boyfriend?
I am constantly listening to the Edith Piaf or Madeleine Peyroux Pandora Station at work, and when I am home cooking. I love Madeleine Peyroux's cover of Smile. Enjoy!
I miss NYC so much. I haven't been in a long, long time. I miss the times walking through Central Park, avoiding and not looking down at the rats in the Subway (Yes it is a mastered art and it freaks me out every time.), Beer and Cheese at Astoria Bier and Cheese, the on top of the world feeling I get when I walk out of Penn Station with purpose towards my friends Amanda, Tina, Jordan or Jackie. I miss date nights in the city that turned into sleepovers, and made me feel so cool because I could truly say "I wanna wake up in a city that doesn't sleep." I have been fortunate enough to attend baseball games at both Yankees stadiums, and both with very attractive gentleman callers. That was incredible.
Over the past year I was able to enjoy being an adult in the city, and rode a bicycle over the major bridges in NYC. Over 22 miles in one day, such an accomplishment I still gloat about. My first time riding a bike over the Queensboro bridge was such a rush at 11pm at night, and probably one of my top 3 favorite NYC memories.
I guess I miss the comfort more than anything. New York City is the best, why should't I miss it to pieces?
"I know there are some issues in life that you just gotta let go of, and there's one that I've never been able to, so tonight I am just going to let this shit go. This is a song about anger, this is a song about revenge, this is a song about hurting someone's feelings so bad.
I obviously have become obsessed with the Fifty Shades of Grey Soundtrack. The mix from Beyonce to Frank Sinatra not only makes this an eclectic album, but every song is perfectly chosen and has an underlying passion running through it the entire time.
Sunday April 29, 2015, Award Winning New Cavern Productions and I held a Beatles Concert to help raise funds and awareness for the Friedrich's Ataxia Research Alliance. Half of the proceeds benefitted those diagnosed with Friedrich's Ataxia, like my sister Christina.
I was so honored and thrilled to sing Christina's favorite Beatles song, Dear Prudence. Definitely an inspiration for all of those living with FA.
"The sun is up the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you."
By far, my favorite version of this song. His shouting and band is so on point. Especially the ending. I have always been used to listening to the Folsom Field version, but ever since senior year of college, this one has always stuck with me as one of my top 3 favorite DMB songs.
I still have yet to see Dave Matthews live. Maybe that can change this summer in June.
What You Are (Live at Central Park) by Dave Matthews Band
