Miss Ouri

I'm in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, this week and it is about as exciting as it sounds. Name a chain restaurant, any chain restaurant, and it is within walking distance to my hotel. And I get to come back in two weeks. Insult to injury, right?! WRONG! Turns out the week I am back, the annual fair is in town (http://www.semofair.com/).
Two words- Demolition Derby! A friend of mine went to a derby a couple weeks ago and said it was unbelievable. And if you check out the link above, you'll notice that the main event on Friday night is REO Speedwagon. It is a shame that I leave Friday afternoon but three cheers for Cape Girardeau. I would totally pay 40 bucks to see the Speedwagon.

Today's song: Take It On the Run- REO Speedwagon

Second song....

As you have probably noticed, my problem with following through has reared its ugly head again. So before I get in the car for six hours, I am making sure to post one more entry to satisfy your song craving.

A group of my friends got together last night to plan a camping trip this fall. I decided to seize this opportunity and make the an official agenda for the meeting. Agenda posted below:

Today's Song from the Shower: This Moment is Golden - Toni Collette and the Finish

First song...

Naming a blog is hard. Really hard. I didn't know where to start so I just started typing some random phrases. One of those phrases was Singing in the Rain because it is one of my favorite movies. More importantly, it is my favorite thing to do. Except, I don't sing in the rain; I sing in the shower. A lot. It is therapy for me. After tinkering for a couple minutes, I landed on Songs from the Shower and I'm quite happy with it.

I've settled on a name. What about a theme? Honestly, I don't know. My interests, though few, run the gamut. If I follow through (and I admit, following through is not an interest of mine), I'm sure this blog will end up being a collection of things I find funny, amusing, or what I feel is general interest. Be warned, only two in ten find my jokes as funny as I do. If two out of ten find my blog enjoyable, I'll consider my job done.
