Feeling good
Posted by Adrenalynn on 24 January 2011
Today is apparently the suckiest day of the year. On my way to work this morning I listened to a radio reporter stick her microphone in unsuspecting people’s faces (insert joke here), asking them why they looked so blue. The answers were all what you’d suspect: “I’m in a hurry”; “I’m tired”; “It’s Monday morning”; “Get out of my way, you stupid woman”; and so on. Now, I can empathize with the fact that Monday mornings aren’t super happy fun time when you don’t have some chatty woman up your behind asking stupid questions. But I’m a firm believer in our mind’s awesome power to change our whole outlook based solely on what we tell it to think.
So I did a little experiment this morning at my desk. I got my Monday morning feelgood tune going on my headset, popped my knuckles, and tweeted the following:
@adrenalynn_no It’s Monday! Say it with me: Moooooooooooooonda-haay! Now do a little happy dance. That’s it! Aaaand smile! Feel that? It’s Monday, baby!
I then broke into my trademark happy dance complete with subsequent tounge-out-of-mouth smile, and booya! Super happy fun time Monday! It really was that easy. So I hereby give you my Monday morning feelgood tune. Use it wisely. And remember: it works on Wednesdays too!

That would make any day less sucky – dancing around to that song.
I like that idea.
Hi Lynn! I'm glad you think so too
I try to do a little car dancing on my way to work in the morning just to get my mood going 
Happy Tuesday!!
Wait? Does this thing work on Tuesday? Or is it just Mondays and Wednesdays?? Maybe I'll try the "tongue out of mouth" smile… Something has to work on Tuesdays. Right? Right!!
…maybe this: I want to rename our cat from "Rufus" to "Happy Crack" (don't ask…). See, then just calling the cat would make me all happy…. (in fact, I'm feeling extra happy right now, just thinking of it…)
Two for the price of one — I like that — Mondays AND Wednesdays.
Is the happy dance like doing the cabbage patch?
Hmm…I don´t drive… Will it work on the bus as well? ;P Next time we´re in a car together I wanna see this phenomenon!
Charlie; don't worry, we can do some happy dancing together next time we're in a car together
And for the record, it works EVERYWHERE
