Work is rough recently for the company as a whole. I have no idea how much longer I will be employed, though I'm not super concerned about finding something else. In the meantime, I am dealing with some intense negativity in the office and I find it to be very hard to be productive.
What do you do to cheer up?
Re: What cheers you up?
A good book and some ice cream. My snuggling with my puppy works wonders too!
Hope things turn around for you.
food, specifically ice cream. and i wonder why i have weight issues.
good music.
trashy tv.
a good workout will probably make you feel better right?
Mommy's little helper
No, half!
I went with some good music (dark, a little emo, it's oddly uplifting) and I'm having lunch with Donald so yay!

This used to work for me on the way to work. It'd make me happy everytime I went to grab for a drink
I'm sorry about your job.
For me a trip to a book store, good coffee, red wine or getting my hair done can help lift my mood.
Currently I am super edgy/crabby (for no apparent reason) so I am going to see if a cup of hot chocolate can help.
seeing people fall down.
i'm laughing just thinking about someone falling down. hahahahaha
Jess cheers me up.
Do something fun! For me that's usually shopping and crafting. Bonus if it's shopping for craft stuff. Which is probably how I ended up dropping $70 on fabric.com this week...
Me too! I've gotten in some trouble before laughing at people. ha ha!
Also mani/pedi!
