(3LATEthings) Happiness, RNRBK cancelled and iTunes Radio stations


I don't fully understand the concept of a National Happiness Day, but apparently yesterday was the 2nd annual one thanks to the UN. Personally, I'm a fan of being happy more than one day a year, but to each his own. Thanks for pointing out that a lot of people go through their entire lives never actually knowing what true happiness is. . . but I digress. I hope you were happy yesterday.

 
 
I got this email about the Rock-n-Roll Brooklyn 10k being "postponed indefinitely". Bummer. They had really come leaps and bonds from the inaugural year. I was also looking forward to finally enjoying the after-party this year. They did mention that they're hoping to bring it back as a half marathon, so fingers crossed! I liked having a Rock-n-Roll race in my backyard. But the good news is I don't have to fork over money for the RNR NOLA (because I completely blanked on registering during the alum-pricing special) and I can go home again next year. Win win!


Do you know how amazing iTunes Radio is? There is a FROZEN station and just recently, they added a "One Hit Wonders", "Ladies of the 80s" and "Spring Break Party Anthems" stations to the main page. It's been my favorite thing about my days lately. Good music. Now THAT'S happiness.

What makes you happy?

  1. There's a FROZEN station? Does it just play the soundtrack over and over? =)

    Sorry about your 10K, but yay for free NOLA!

    1. The Frozen station plays all the Disney soundtracks including Frozen. . so it's not just Frozen.

      Thanks! Hope you get to run it next year as well!

  4. I was surprised/disappointed they cancelled RnR Brooklyn, too, but it would be AWESOME if they managed to put a half together -- I'd totally sign on for that. Also? a FROZEN station! Ahhh, totally checking that out today...
