Spring Playlist

By raise of hand, who is trying to get in shape for the summer? 

Oh wait, I forget that I am like Helen Keller on this thing... 

Let's just assume that you are, shall we? I mean, I know that winter to me is like a huge excuse to pretty much eat as much as possible and sometimes as quickly as possible.. I'm not proud of that, but that's the truth. Then spring creeps up out of nowhere, which sends my sinuses into a hissy because of my horrendous allergies, and I suddenly remember that it's probably not a good idea to eat mixed Trix and Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal for breakfast... After I realize that winter has made me pre-diabetic, I am ready to shake it off and conquer the world, one sit-up at a time... 

In order for me to do this, I need fun and really upbeat music so, I thought I would share my spring into action playlist just in case you need a little motivation... 

Warning:  I emphasize the word "really" because if you have been keeping up with my other music suggestions, this playlist might be... well... shocking. For some reason, I like to run/walk/workout to inappropriate music.. I know this is bad, but it's what makes me dynamic and edgy and in the end, this is probably why we are friends because you except my wide range of musical taste... and just because I know every single word to Get Ur Freak On does not make me a bad person, it just makes me really fun at any karaoke party... So, keep in mind that when you are searching for these songs, you will probably want to search the "clean" versions... my apologies.
