Hello Dolly

Dolly’s in town. Tropical Storm Dolly that is…

And guess who forgot her umbrella in her car. Again.

To keep myself from having Rita flashbacks from my 32 hour “road trip” in 2005, I’ve decided to welcome Dolly with open arms and create a playlist in her honor. Want to take a guess as to what songs have been blaring from my computer speakers all day long? It’s much more fun than guessing what my co-workers are saying behind my back.

Please note that “rain” or some form of the word is in the title of each song. Have fun and good luck! In the meantime, I’m going to go ahead and start counting the animals that are lining up two-by-two outside of my office building.

  14. Tina Said,

    Okay, I’m out of control but came up with more…

  16. Erin Said,

    “Don’t Rain on My Parade” and “Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head” …

    And I can’t tell you how happy I am that “Blame it on the Rain” made it. The mix wouldn’t be complete without a little Milli Vanilli. I heart them.
