Spring cleaning has come to the land of Lara’s desk. Today was the official day to get the piles sorted, organized and see if I could get to the bottom.
A happy thing happened when I went through my crap; I found my iPod! It’s been missing since the last time I went to the gym. I knew it was in there somewhere and that was part of the impetus to clean.
As a treat for having accomplished such a mundane and necessary task, I created a new playlist for my birthday month! Some people have birthdays that happen on a certain day and then it’s over. Not me! I like to stretch it out. Sometimes it’s a few days, sometimes a few weeks. This year, I’m going whole hog and claiming the entire month of March.
Here’s the start of my new playlist. As the month goes on I know I’ll add to it, but for now these are my faves that I love to rock to. If you’re ever on Davidson Mesa and you see a runner girl spastically dancing and singing along the trail, just know that it’s Lara’s b-day month and she’s having fun. :-)

Happy b-day month! It's my b-day month too! Love the playlist and looking for some new ones. Maybe we'll both see each other rockin' out on Davidson Mesa!
Great list of songs… I love the song Flower by Moby in particular, that was my ringtone for a while!
I have friends that stretch their birthday out for a week or the whole month. I haven’t done that, but I think I need to start! Why not celebrate me?!
Well, happy birthday month! I am thinking of doing that next year when I hit a big milestone.
