And who isn't? So, you may have noticed I've changed the name of the blog. Well, the original name (Little-Michael's Rants and Raves), besides being too long, wasn't really speaking to the ideas I've been writing about on this blog so far and it didn't feel like the right name for it anymore. The name little-michael is a pen name my friend Dan bestowed on me while we were in a poetry workshop together. He thought I seemed like a member of a group of traveling circus performers, you know, featuring the heroic feats of "little-michael" as he swings from the flying trapeze! Whoo-hoo! I don't know about that but the name kind of stuck, at least as far as Dan and our friend Connie was concerned. To this day, they still call me little-michael or some variation of it. So, when I started this blog it seemed like the perfect title for it. Maybe it was the Rants & Raves part that didn't really sit right with me. I don't really rant or rave about anything. I think I tend to think about things and attempt to write out my thoughts. Anyway, that's how the new title came about. Also, you'll find my poetry runs in a similar vein. Thinking outloud that is. You'll see.
