Tuesday Tunes

     It’s Tuesday, blogging A-Z is history and it is time to crank the tunes and check out what I am jamming to this week.  Sit back, relax, and jam with me for Tuesday Tunes hosted by Holli at “Holli’s Hoots and Hollers”, Lauren at “Outside the Frame”, and Leslyn at “Leslyn’s Lovely Life”.
    
      Today I am featuring a lot of repeater bands here on the Giggling Trucker’s Wife.  Past Tuesday’s have found me featuring the Imagine Dragons, Thompson Square, and Florida Georgia Line.  Here I am again, different songs, same bands, and different day!

      I have no idea what it is about the Imagine Dragon’s song “Radioactive” and sticks in my head, but I love it.  Once I have heard it, I sing it all day long.  I love the harmonies.  I love the music.  I love the words.  Let’s just say I love this song and band.

      Today I am missing my husband.  He has been on the road entirely too long for my tastes but we need the money.  If the wheels aren’t rolling, we are not paying the house payment so “If I Didn’t Have You” by Thompson Square is on my play list.  Even though it seems like he is never here, if I didn’t have him at all I would go bat shit crazy.  I love that man of mine for better or worse.

     Last but certainly not least is a feel good song by Florida Georgia Line “Get Your Shine On”.  You could say the theme of my life right now is to get my shine on.  I am learning again and it is a wonderful feeling.  I am discovering new things and kicking my own happy ass out of the rut I have been in the last several months.  The sun is shining, the birds are singing…and shitting on my car, and the flowers are in bloom.  I am in a happy sunny mood and this song reflects that.  So get your shine on, be radioactive, because if I didn’t have all of you to read my BS just where would I be?  Here’s wishing you a happy Tuesday and keep rocking right along with the tunes that move your soul!

Tunes on Tuesday

     It is Tuesday again and I am hopping and rocking along with Holli at  "Holli's Hoots and Hollers" and Lauren at "Outside the Frame"  and itching to share the songs that are rocking my world today.  Today all the tunes I chose have a happy feel good beat going on.

      Since my husband is finally coming home at the end of this week after being on the road for 6 weeks I chose “Are You Going to Kiss Me or Not?” by Thompson Square.

      It is a favorite of both of ours and even though a hello kiss plus more is probably a given after than much time apart, a person still wonders.  After all I haven’t seen him in forever and it is a legitimate worry!  Usually our eyes meet and the weirdness goes away in about 5 seconds.

      Another song that has been banging around in my head lately is Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe”. 

      I love the video to this song.  It completely cracks me up and looks like something that would happen to me.  I can just see me getting my panties in a twist over a hot guy only to find out he really has the hots for the guy standing next to me.   Go figure…isn’t that how it goes?  Even more likely it is that desperate feeling hoping the schools will call me in to fill in at the cafeteria.  I get the fact that they won’t call unless one of the regulars are sick or need time off…so chances are slim.  Still, call me maybe…OK?  I like money!

       Last but not least, I love the rollicking beat of “Tornado” by Little Big Town. 

      I kind of like the idea of rocking the world so much that I lift a house up spin it around, and smash it back down like a tornado.  It kind of has this crazy, menopausal feel to it that just perhaps the world should not screw with me.  After all, I am bat shit crazy and hormonal until next time when I give you another glimpse into the life of a trucker’s wife.
