Come On, Eileen!

You know how sometimes you are just having a bad day, and then you hear a song on the radio and suddenly your whole day is better? That happened to me today. I was feeling pretty crappy, and not happy about needing to go to work feeling so crappy, and half way to work I hear this song. Part of the "90's At Noon" on 101.9, which I usually don't listen to because I despise most 90's music. But not as much as most 80's music. But that is besides the point. Anyway, I hear "Come On Eileen" by Dexys Midnight Runners (don't you just love one hit wonders?) and my whole out look on the day changed! Suddenly I was feeling marginally better, work was going to be ok today, and I was pretty sure that Nik and I would be naming our first born daughter Eileen. I haven't brought up this point with him yet, so everyone wish me luck.

I have linked you to YouTube and the music video for Come On Eileen if you click on the title. I think you all know how that works. I hope this song brightens your day like it did mine! Come On, Eileen!

Gag me with a fork! Lol! The song is okay but the video? Hurley! I never want to see another pair of overalls again. ROFL!!! You know, you remind me SO MUCH of my very best friend, Karen, from Hawaii. You two have the SAME style in everything! You two would have been instant friends. :) I gotta e-mail her this video. She would get a total kick out of it!
