The cure for a grumpy Monday morning.

My current favorite is the "One Semester of Spanish Love Song..." Enjoy, MB

I totally understand. I have a tween at home...10yo dd, and sometimes I could pull my hair out trying to get us around in the mornings. Seems like after it is all over and the smoke clears I usually start laughing at it all because she reminds me of ME! I too love youtube and post it often on my blog.

I guess for morning pick me ups...i love my web comic: http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic
it's all about gaming so kind of dorky, and can be a little...edgy? R-rated? but it makes me laugh. But coming into work this time of year I get a good laugh out of our pathetic Christmas Tree that looks like it's been beat up with it's half a string of blinking lights and mismatched garland.

kindergarten can be hard; on them and us. I think it's especially hard for them to leave the nest after they've enjoyed all that weekend love. same thing happened here, too.

Our bus in soggy seattle ended up to be 45 minutes late due to road closures...This is some rain! At grumpy mornings, I look forward to the stillness afterwards, and I always find that I lose the grumpiness and I just miss my little guy so much. That when he comes off the bus, it's so wonderful. I bet you and Simon will have a fabulous afternoon together. :)

Go to elfyourself.com for some hilarious fun with cartoon elves and you get to upload your own faces...sure to make you smile and everyone you send it to--cheryle

Flight of the Concords is hysterical. I see the person above me recommended it. But my favorite of theirs is the one about the prettiest girl in the party who could have been a part-time model. Second to that would be the Robots one, and then the Hip Hop Hippotmus
BUT, I have one for you that will get you on many many levels. You will LOVE this one Ali. Please watch it:

here is my you tube favorite at the moment! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibobJWQXQA0
i'm not sure why i can't get enough of it... maybe my love of bouncy balls as a kiddo or the idea of being the one to create a commercial that is so fun. so wonderful!

Ali, thanks for that list... boy, did I need to laugh like I just did! I think the Evolution of Dance video was my favorite... I laughed so hard, hubby came in from the garage to see what in the world had me laughing so hard (and so loud)!
The first dance video he listed was funny, but I think this one is better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvIvHrsLvSM
ENJOY! And thanks for the laughs... laughing babies and people dancing funny are always a sure pick-me-up :) Tracy

What font did you use for your capture and create on your banner if you don't mind me asking?

OMG! Thanks for posting this. I love the Dad at the Comedy Barn! I've already watched it about 3 times! I was laughing so hard. Amazing how something stupid can really get you going!
Hope your day turned around!

Totally random question, but do you give neighbor gifts? I would guess you have some killer ideas! If so, please share!

Check out Jeff Dunham. Any of his skits are funny, but the Achmed the dead terrorist skit has to be my current favorite. It has some swearing in it, but is funny! Enjoy!
