Playlist For Sept. 5, 2021: Workin' It Out!

Done and dusted (well, I actually need to dust)! Biking trips completed (as of 2pm today), til I dream up another one. So back am I, to all the chores I left behind, to assuaging my peevish cat for leaving him, and to concocting new Broadway At Its Best playlists, all for you!

BUT what just happened? We've turned the corner (hopefully with our blinkers on) into FALL. Time for pumpkin spice and sweaters and warmer masks? I did have pumpkin spice lattes (and a latta it) on my last trip, and today feels like sweatta weatha, but you know September! Inconsistency, thy name is...September, okay? We'll no doubt have some last sticky/icky days again (and again), before true autumnal temps settle in, but meanwhile, hand me down that can O' pumpkin! (Paint Your Wagon, folks?)

 

BUT it's FOR SURE Labor Day weekend, so what else could this Sunday mean but The Labor Day Edition, in which we'll appropriately "work it out" with Broadway and salute it with labor-intensive tunes from Working (natch!), 9 To 5, How To Succeed, Waitress, Pump Boys...all those nose-to-the-grindstone shows. So put on your apron or your 3-piece suit and get to laborin'.

Meanwhile, I'm trading in the hammock for an afghan, and that margarita for red wine. And (for the moment) my bike shoes...for those detractive bedroom slippers. :) See ya on Sunday!


Slippers WITH red wine! :)
