Canned Heat

After that overwrought last post, it seems I’ve been unmotivated to write in this online journal of mine. But after the denial of service attacks on Twitter yesterday and John Hughes dying, I felt there was only one thing I could do: dance. And then come on here and write a little bit.
This past weekend, my cousin Matt got hitched, and at the reception, I realized something about myself: I do not enjoy dancing when other people around me are also dancing. As hard as I tried, I could not rouse myself to go crazy on the dance floor at the reception, though that probably also had something to do with the DJ playing terrible music the entire time. Still, I was complimented on my performance during “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” by Dead or Alive.
This epiphany led me to appreciate one of my favorite past times, dancing at work, much more than I used to. The music video for “Canned Heat” by Jamiroquai has been playing on the TVs in the video store this month, and while my dancing is not as crazy as Jay Kay’s, I’ve been busting a move every time it comes on. Dancing is so much more rewarding when everyone around you finds it either confusing or inappropriate.


Lmao. Wow. So true. But I must say that Im blessed with the gift to dance anywhere, anytime and with anyone. But your dancing at work is great, and always puts me in a great mood!
