So, How's Your 5:00 a.m. Going?
If only I could imagine a Rest option for my brain..
It's 5:00 a.m. I should still be asleep. My mind is racing with dark, ethereal thoughts and refuses to shut down for me to get
that sweet extra sleep I would love to have before I need to get up and face the ordinary mainstream world of work and
obligations. However, here I am, so it's time to muse; it's time to let what's going on go on.
I just listened to one of my favorite albums of all time, Tarja, "My Winter Storm" (@tarjaofficial on Twitter), and now I must muse. I must muse.

Music fuels my Dandyism. Whenever I hear something that is otherworldly beautiful, absolutely beyond reproach, my
imagination immediately fires like a rocket on Cape Canaveral. And, my lovelies, my menagerie, when my imagination is
about to leave this atmospheric coil, my fashion goes with it. Literally, my outfits are generated by the music that
inspires it; I am only bound by the laws of physics and economics to make my machinations come to life.

What type of music does the Dandy? There is no hard and fast rule to what will do it; it just knows that it will when it
knows when it will. Everyone from Tarja to Within Temptation to Two Steps From Hell to Miley Cyrus, "Midnight Sky" to Madonna, "Frozen" to
Lady Gaga (all of "Chromatica") to Arch Enemy to Celldweller to Kylie Minogue to Dawn Richard to Audiomachine to..
whatever I might hear next that sends me there. The music has to send me "there". Where is "there"? I can't tell you
where "there" is, but I know exactly where "there" is, and my Dandy waits for me there, in "there", to create it, put it
together, and show it to you.

This must have been how Lewis Carroll felt when he created "Alice in Wonderland". Did I mention that the Mad Hatter is
one of my inspirations? Were you surprised?
Time for more music. More imaginations. More ideas. More art. More message. More worldchange. More lack of sleep.
