Good advice from Van Halen...

So, I'm a totally 80's music fan. Probably because that's the decade I went to elementary school, middle school, and even the beginning of high school. So when I started to type this morning, the first words in my head were "Right now" which led me to immediately think of the Van Halen song... so I looked up the lyrics on-line, and what do you know? They actually have some good advice! Here's a small sampling:

Right now, hey

Its your tomorrow

Right now,

Cmon,its everything

Right now,

Catch a magic moment, do it

Right here and now

It means everything

Miss the beat, you lose the rhythm,

And nothing falls into place, no

Only missed by a fraction,

Slipped a little off your pace, oh,

The more things you get, the more you want,

Just trade in one for the other,

Workin so hard, to make it easier, whoa,

Got to turn, cmon turn this thing around

Who knew? I mean, really... the same band that sang "Hot for Teacher" actually came up with some profound lyrics! Granted, the lead singer has changed, but still...

So, I am going to take their advice, and "catch a magic moment" and get some things done around here... a few things I've been procrastinating. And maybe listen to some 80's music, too.

Disclaimer... I've never been the brightest when it comes to lyrics and what they actually mean. So if this song is about something other than living in the moment and being content in the here and now, well... I'm sorry. And I don't want to know what they really mean either.
