I have been feeling under the weather. I don't know who made up that phrase, but I don't know if it will ever make sense. It just seems...odd. I don't know. My brain is still running full throttle, but it's like someone pulled the emergency brake and I'm spinning my wheels. Well, I'm only human.
Seal has some awesome music. "Human Beings" is one of those songs that I could listen to anytime. The entire album was good. Start to finish. So was Seal and Seal('94). Actually, I don't know if there's one that isn't. Well, my thoughts have strayed and I'm now trying to remember all the Seal albums...hmm...I'm off to solve the mystery.

So, this song has been stuck in my head. It is all that revolution in the air. That, and the song is catchy.
Otherwise, I have been playing Warcraft. Escaping reality. Life is just a fantasy, can't you live this fantasy life? I'm off like a...a...I need a new phrase.

So, this won't be long. This song was stuck in my head. Savage Garden had some great stuff that never hit the radio.
Well, today was a productive day. A day that felt like it went on forever, but productive.
So, I don't always like putting politics in my random thoughts, but I keep thinking the Occupy movement has seriously outgrown its name. Unless the only goal is to occupy spaces, it is time to define who they are. Economic justice, income equality, end corruption; all things that seem to be a common theme. The Economic American Revolution? No, it has become international. "Demand Economic Justice"? Not easy enough to remember or say. "Taking Our Rights Back"? Does #TARB look funny? "Defend All Rights Today"? #DART would work...maybe. Someone get back to me on this, I seriously think the movement needs a real name. In this day and age, having a recognizable name is alot. The multiple hash tags you have to follow on Twitter makes it hard to follow. It is also a mistake to give the movement a name associated with the recent 99% pictures and such. I say that because if there are people in the 1% that want to help the 99%, they shouldn't feel like they are outsiders. They should feel like they are all equals as people. Hmmm... "Stop Injustice Globally"... "Equal Rights Now". #ERN could work. "The Movement for Equal Rights Now" is the best I have that can get a consistent hashtag. Tweet your ideas to @cdstmichael or comment here. My brain won't stop pondering this.

Well, I just got too busy and all of a sudden I wasn't writing anymore. Why? I actually don't know. Considering this is usually where I air my nonsense and such, I don't know why I suddenly stopped. To busy I guess, but I do know this helps me to think a little more clearly. Maybe it's because I get all the random crap out of my head. Maybe it's because I wrote something. Who knows.
So, I've been playing with the new Facebook Timeline and it's strange really. There are some interesting things, but I really don't like that it replaces the profile. It is like it wants to be a bigger part of my life. I've decided it is big enough. I've been playing with Google+ as a result, and so far I like it. It has a little ways to go, but it is a much cleaner feel.
My wife has suggested I take up tap-dancing. I don't think that I would be very good. It's the tapping part that I think I would have trouble with. Clickity-clack!
This has to be one of my favorite videos. I don't know why. I mean, the song is great, and there's something about black and white videos. Also, I have always liked Don Henley's solo work more than the Eagles. Say what you will, but I just like it better. Here is a thought I just had - when he says don't look back, everyone looks back. Why is that? Maybe I'll never know. Actually, I probably will not ever know. That's OK.
Well, I don't know that I had a lot more on my mind. It was a good day off, and now I'm trying to get myself back into work mode. I'm also going to try to get back to my daily thoughts. It's therapeutic, at least that's what my shrink says. Actually, they don't say that. I just like to think it.
