One day more! YES!!! This is from Les Miserable, the first musical I ever saw, way back in London in the 90's. Mummy and I caught it while I was doing my post-graduate diploma at LSE. I remember being blown away by the stage production, and the rousing finale. I am not a big fan of musicals, but this was one I thoroughly enjoyed. The other was The Lion King which we all caught at MBS a couple of years ago.
20,20,20, 4 hours to go. I love this song by the Ramones. You can't help but have your spirits lifted up when you hear it, and this silly portion is the best part
"Ba ba baba, baba ba baba, I wanna be sedated"
I just discovered the story behind the song - they were singing about getting to the airport and wanting to go home because they had been on the road for a long time, and were stuck in guess where? London! And they were there around Christmas time and everything was shut down. "Nothing to do, nowhere to go...") Wow, talk about parallels with my situation. This is now officially my jam.
Two songs that capture my sentiments, but occupying separate ends of the musical spectrum :)
I also posted a picture of the movie poster for "48 hours" on Facebook yesterday. This movie launched Eddie Murphy into stardom and led to... Shrek. I think that Donkey was his best role to date but this one comes a close second.
Yesterday, I did the workout above and I feel a bit sore in my upper body. Managed 6 sets which was decent I guess. To celebrate the last few hours of my 'incarceration', I shall have a whisky highball later. But first, I am going to catch Liverpool v Arsenal on TV, and I will ride my bike while doing so - let's hope for a better game, if not better ending this time.
