Play, Thing!

Since I got an iPod from Christmas (yes, I was the last person on the planet to have one), I've been going to the gym six times a week—and actually pushing myself while there. Imagine that!

What's the reason for the push? A lot of things, I suppose—an ever begetting drive to be in shape, feel good, look good, be happy, not gain a ton of weight while preggo (and still eat a ton of cookies), a little me time, etc.—but none more immediate and yearning than the desire to listen to music.

So, here's what's moving me right now (on shuffle, of course). Are they my all my all-time fav songs ever? No. But will they keep you on that dang elliptical machine at 8 for 45 minutes? Yes.
