Warmer, if only for one day, pax of 3 for a Friday splash at the pad.
Driving home from work Thursday, YHC may or may not have been “jamming” to some early 90s music, when the thought occurred that “man, this is definitely a guilty pleasure type of tune”, one where you know you probably shouldn’t be enjoying it as much as you are. That sparked an idea to search through my phone and create a playlist of songs that one might consider a guilty pleasure, which would cause anyone in their right mind to say “why is he blaring that at 5:15 on Girod street, exercising in front of the Rusty Pelican? And more importantly, he seems to be a pied piper of some sort or a wizard, because there are others following that lead!”
If you saw YHC out on the cold, windy lakefront wearing only short sleeves and shorts (and one glove, don’t ask), you might say that there’s no way I take myself seriously, and unless it’s work, family, or faith-related, you’d be right.
So I took the step, and let the Venga Boys blare. Lionel Richie? ding ding ding. LL Cool J, Yup. Fine Young Cannibals? Yes please. Fall Out Boy? sure enough. Michael Jackson? hee hee!
We didn’t have time to let the tunes of Vanilla Ice, Timbaland, and Warrant join the party, but there’s always next time. Where we’re also going to participate in group therapy and discuss music, movies, food, and other things that are guilty pleasures. No Forrest Gump! I’m dying on that hill.
