I’m a minimalist. I do the minimal amount of exercise necessary to reap the benefits. I knew it was time to get back on it this morning. So I put on Tom Petty’s Full Moon Fever and stepped on the cheap elliptical machine conveniently located in my bedroom. Full Moon does it for me. This is Petty at his finest: subversive yet upbeat, and the album is all about freeing yourself at all costs. C’mon — Free Falling? I Won’t Back Down? And then there’s the beat that you can run to. I am usually good if I can go 10 minutes on the maching (yes, I’m pathetic), but with Petty leading the way, I just went 20 and beyond. Oh, excuse me, I’ve gotta get back on: Zombie Zoo is on!

“Free Falling” is definitely on my “Feeling Good” playlist. Also on there (there’s about two hours worth) is Frank Sinatra’s My Way and Toto’s Africa.
Yeah!!

ooh, gotta love Toto — only problem is, that song get’s stuck in my head for days. And Frank’s in a category all his own. Recently heard Men at Work’s “Land Down Under” for the first time in forever. Put that on my playlist. Hmm, there’s a zombie theme here (Zombie Zoo, “Head full of zombie”).
