My new favourite time of the day is the ride in to work. Although I loved riding with my husband when we worked together, I was never fully awake by the time I dragged myself to my desk, and it wasn't until nearly an hour after I was seated that I was able to begin forming coherent sentences.
Now, I blast my stereo as loud as it will go, and I sing my heart out every morning. It's been so lovely lately since I've been able to roll the windows down to enjoy the Spring air blowing on my face. If I had the opportunity, I would stick my head out of the window like a puppy.
These short minutes give me a little time to myself; much needed time to psych myself up (and wake myself up) for the day. I listen to songs my husband doesn't like, and I don't have to worry about him teasing me about my pathetic vocal abilities when I belt out the lyrics in my tone-deaf pitch. For those moments, I am the next American Idol, and all the world is full of Paulas.
Today I sang songs by Bon Iver and The Killers. Follow the links to hear my favourites.

First of all, I love how you spell "favourites."
Second of all, crank that volume, girl. There is nothing like belting one out before pulling into work. That is the only thing I like about my 25 minute drive to school.
