Music has always been my go to for everything in my life. Whether I’m cleaning the house, driving in the car, taking a shower, or at work, you bet the radio will be cranked up high.
My music taste is something that you might call, eclectic. My Spotify playlists ranges from Disney soundtracks to country to classical to Screamo. And I’m not embarrassed of it either.
Then the thought hit me. My life needs a badass soundtrack. So here it is.
5:30am (Disturbed – Glass Shatters):
The alarm goes off. What an awful sound. This is the perfect song to put me in the I’m-going-to-kick-today’s-ass type of mood.
I’m going to punch the morning in the face, kick the afternoon in the gut, and Stone Cold Stunner the evening.
Or I might think someone is breaking into my house and have to spend the morning cleaning my underwear.
Either way, I’m now awake.
6:30am (Ludacris – Move Bitch):
I’m late but what else is new? I missed the clear morning traffic by 10 minutes.
Seriously though, why isn’t traffic moving?
If the girl in front of me would stop putting on her make up and get off her phone we might move a little faster.
Move bitch!
7:00am (Kenny Chesney – Shiftwork):
“A big ol’ pile of shift work”. Take the “F” out of “shiftwork” and you’ll have a clear understanding of how I feel about my job.
Kenny Chesney saved his money and went to the beach for a beer. The only place I’ll be going is to the grocery store because, apparently, my family has to eat.
2:30pm (Cam’ron – I Hate My Job):
All day I hear the constant complaints from my manager about productivity and the angry comments from customers about lines being long or having to wait for service.
What these people don’t see is the chatty Kathy standing in front of me who won’t shut the hell up about her problems. Why this bitch feels the need to go on and on about how she is like three months late paying her bills absolutely perplexes me.
Oh, and a half hour lunch break? Seriously? That’s not even enough time to get the soy sauce and wasabi ratio right, much less enough time to actually enjoy my sushi.
4:00pm (Skrillex – Kill Everybody):
Not because Skrillex is good but mostly because after work I want to kill everybody.
Alright, Maybe that’s a bit harsh.
However, after dealing with my boss nagging me all day, listening to my co – worker talk about her dwindling sex life, and having customers complain about literally everything. This is the song to get me through it.
7:00pm (Sia – Titanium):
I swear the shower has the best acoustics in the house.
Time to work on my Pitch Perfect auditions!
Alright, maybe it’s more like Pitch Not So Perfect. I guess I won’t be quitting my day job after all.
8:00pm (Bach – Cello Suite No. 1 – Prelude):
Dinner is finished. Dishes are done. The house is quite. Now I get to have a cup of coffee while I wind down from another crazy day.
Seriously though, who doesn’t love this song?
I’m trying to get the ice cream man in my neighborhood to make this his song for his truck. Right now it’s “La Cucaracha”. Sounds like a damn mariachi band outside my house everyday.
10:00pm (Israel Kamakawiwo’ole – Somewhere Over the Rainbow):
I made it through another day.
I seriously deserve a medal for not hurting anyone or having a complete meltdown.
There’s always tomorrow.
