Milkshakes, Laundry and Netflix

Ah, my Tuesday off.  Tif isn't feeling very well, so she called in sick to work.  It's kind of funny, though.  I almost got more done with her at home than I think I would have if she had gone to work.  I got a couple things organized in my room and did all my laundry.  We weren't all awake and going until about noon, so I ran to Safeway and got some icecream for homemade milkshakes.  We had that and leftovers for lunch.

I am trying to amass a playlist of Zumba songs so that I can listen to them and maybe remember how the dances go.  The problem is that I've found most of the songs on YouTube, but I can't plug my headphones into my phone and listen with YouTube.  The phone has to stay on in my pocket, or the video (and the music) stops.  So I turned to my old pall Grooveshark.  I haven't been on that site in awhile.  It's basically just an internet radio, where you pick the music.  You can't download the songs or anything, but you can listen to them.  And I can pull up the website, start the playlist, lock my phone and listen.  No more phone staying on in my pocket.  But the really cool part is that I logged into my old account so I could save the playlist.  And I have about 10 different playlists on that account that I had almost forgotten about.  My last year of college, I worked in the Data Entry department.  We were allowed to listen to whatever we wanted while we worked.  So I alternated between Pandora and Grooveshark.  I have a playlist that was just for upbeat work days.  So, I had a lot of fun going through my old playlists and re-discovering some awesome music.

Oh, and how can I forget - Criminal Minds in finally on Netflix!  Yes, I'm weird... I'm also addicted to Criminal Minds.  And now 9 seasons are on Netflix!  Color me happy.
