I hopped in my car, late as usual this morning, and what was the first song on the radio?  None other than my favorite song, Friday I’m in Love by The Cure.  I’ve alluded to this song love HERE but in case I wasn’t clear the first time, this song is the stuff that singing-at-the-top-of-your-lungs-whilst-driving is made of so I’m sharing

But seriously, it’s Friday and I’m in LOVE with:

• Cooler weather
• Fridays in general
• New jeans
• My "Chicago" scarf
• Friends and family that continue to surprise me
• My squidgy dogs
• The fact that I can vaguely hear the high school’s marching band from my back yard on game nights
• My so-cute-it-hurts godchildren
• Orlando radio stations for getting it right this morning
• Pinterest… ’nuff said

But that’s enough of all this over-cheerful blah-di-blah.  I’ll leave you with one more ditty that made the commute so much better….

Happy Friday!

Windmill, Windmill for the land.
Turn forever hand in hand
Take it all there on your stride
It is tinking, falling down
Love forever love is free
Let’s turn forever you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?

I’ve shared before about my love of quotes and I like to pretend I know a little somethin’ somethin’ about playing around with typography.  All that said, with a little help from Pandora spinning some great tunes on my “Save a Prayer” radio station (love me some Duran Duran), this was inspired.

Still don’t recognize the song? Well HERE is a little video of the Gorillaz to jog your memory.

Good luck with the whole “I refuse to dance in my chair” thing.
