A Simple Request: Occupy Your Life. An Update on The Occupy My Blog Movement Kicked Into High Gear.


A Simple Request: Occupy Your Life. 
Your life is calling.  Don't miss it.  Pick up the phone.  Don't let this one go to voicemail.

  Life = Pain.  So what?  Move on, already.


Lifestyle, It’s what’s For Dinner.  Don’t have one?  Occupy my blog and please get a life at your earliest convenience.  Thank you for your cooperation.  An update on the Occupy My Blog Movement on the move, kicked into high gear, moving on and never coming back.


With the Occupy My Blog Movement in full swing, on the upward trajectory, set in motion that can’t be stopped, only hoped to be contained, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my fellow occupiers who have so faithfully occupied my blog and occupied yourselves, the land of reason and rational thought, your self expression and hearts. We wouldn’t be able to do this without you.  You are making all the difference, and together, we are changing the technological, political, psychological, spiritual, creational, and recreational landscape as we know it.  So take this time to give yourselves a nice round of applause for a job well done.

However, I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our next iteration of the Occupy My Blog Movement currently underway with today's simple request: Occupy Your Life.  That’s right, Occupy My Blog and Occupy Your Life.  Go ahead; occupy the sh@t out of it.  Occupy it till your little heart's content.  Because it’s easy to become distracted in today’s world of nonstop information, news media bombardment, that we can all sometimes get lost in the shuffle.  Lose sight of the bigger picture.  God knows I’ve been guilty of numbing out with any number of distractions, be it reruns of the Jersey Shore to watching the Muppets Take Manhattan for the billionth time.

Because, it’s fine to occupy your distractions occasionally, once in a while, check out from your day to day life.  But some of us tend to take it too far.  Instead of choosing life, we chose something else.  Be it a life of mind numbing reality TV shows, drug addiction, alcoholism, or occupying your couch watching I Dream of Genie reruns trying to figure out how to get a lamp of our own, we’ve all be guilty of giving in to distraction every once in a while.  But the time has come, my friends, to “get a life”.  Don’t have one?  Occupy my blog, and get your life on right here.

Don’t like your life?  Think there’s no future in it?  Hate your job, or your boss, your overall lot in life?  Occupy your life and change it up.  Hit the reset button and move on.  Perhaps going back to school is what the doctor ordered.  Maybe you’ve always longed to be a dentist but never had the motivation to go to dental school and work through the process of staring into people's mouths day in and day out for the rest of eternity.  Maybe you’ve had a secret passion for knitting sweaters and always hoped to turn it into a real money maker one day.  I don’t care if you’ve always wanted to go to Mime School or make it big-time in the circus (neither does Honey Badger, but seriously, he never cares).  I mean, “What’s mime is yours”, after all.  Wanna be a DJ?  Go ahead and spin till your heart’s content (just be sure to come up with a killer DJ Name, such as DJ Don’t Wanna Get Up Monday Mornings EVER).  Well, my occupying friends, that day is today.  The time is now.  Your ship has come in, as it were.  I’m saying Occupy your life and get your life jump started in style.  Lifestyle, that is.

Lifestyle, it’s what’s for dinner.

Because after all, we’ve only got one life to live (at least as far as we know, any additional lives cannot be confirmed or denied at this time until operation: “Death is Upon Us” is fully underway on Mayday, May 1st, 2012).  Why not make the most of it while we’re here?

I mean, at this point, what’ve we got to lose?  Clearly not our dignity (lost last weekend), self-respect (lost at your first game of strip poker which seemed-like-a-good-idea-at-the-time), our right to party (lost in college at the hundredth game of flip cup).  All lost a long, long time ago, my dear friends.  Right about the same time we lost our virginity…way back in the day. 
So go ahead, bet it all on black.  Don’t call it a comeback.  And give us “just the facts, Jack”.  Get your life on and Occupy It With Authority.  Choose life, say yes to your ambitions, and go about achieving them in the most enjoyable way humanly possible. 


Choose, life, cause for real, death can wait.  At least until OWS unleashes their murderous rage and mows down anyone who ever considered buying a Mercedes on May, 1st, 2012 (Mayday!  Mayday!  Mayday!).  Let’s get this party started right.  Lifestyle is now the word on the street.  Occupy your lifestyle, and bring it on.  




Spread the word, Pass it on.  Cause it’s on, like Donkey Kong.  Or Ping Pong?


Happy Occupying!  Over and out for now.  More updates to follow.

In the meantime, awaken your inner DJ Don’t Care Wanna Rock Out in My Underwear (my current DJ name of choice) with this.  Scott Henry style.  He occupies life (as well as the word "like").  You can too.
