Michael Jackson's Thriller

OK, so I'm back from my work travels and decided to spend the morning cleaning out the inbox.  After that, I did a little surfing, and lock and behold, what do I find on iTunes?

Michael Jackson's Thriller (cd/album/whatever) and the extended version video for 4.99.  OHMIGOODNESS!  I screamed like a 13 year old seeing Chris Brown in person.  

So, now I've got to get my iTunes up and running on my new Mac so that I can download the MJ classic before it goes off sale.  LOL.

I have had all kinds of high school flashbacks since seeing that ad.  Come on, ya'll know you were all doing that little dance with your leather jacket (red or black, of course) and your one white glove.  And let's not forget the high water pants with penny loafers and white socks.  Sigh.  I wasn't on the Jheri-Curl bandwagaon, but I did have my hair set on rods so that it could be really curly and "look like" MJ's.  

OK.  Gonna go sit down now.

Voting...

Thank God it's almost here.  There is nothing left to be said or done.  It has been a long, hard road, and the American people are ready to cast votes and move the country forward.  Enough with the discussin' and get to the doin' of things that will improve lives, improve the economy, improve the way we treat and are treated by our neighbors.  

Idealistic?  Yes!  But we all know that things change when someone decides to do just one thing differently.  

November 4th can't come quick enough.

Hotel View

My hotel room has a fabulous view of the beach.  I can't wait to get out and go for a run.  My new promise to me is to take advantage of each hotel with great scenery.  I'm going to get out, about, and take lots of pictures.  Really, I am.  LOL

Pics to come.

Work...

has been busy.  Just got back from ATL and heading out to Myrtle Beach for a conference tomorrow.  By Thursday, things will be slow and quiet, and I will be able to return to a normal pace. 

I'm putting plans in motion for the writing gig, and will even have a website up in a couple of weeks.  I am very excited about how this is all coming together.  

I know that the economy is bad around the world, and that we don't know what the next four years are going to bring, and on and on and on.  I just know that right now, I am doing what I am supposed to be doing.   I feel that every day.  

We have to keep pressing forward, even when things look like they are falling down around us.  So, I'm moving on with my plans.  With my eyes wide open, of course.
