Things I love right NOW

As Kathleen often says, "It's the little things, really." Here are some little things that have gotten me through a tough couple days at the office.
Bendy Guy, rocking out on my desk in the middle of the plant wreath that was put on my head in honor of the opening ceremonies of the Olympics.

Maybe Bendy Guy is singing along to my new favorite song, Elise's "Rock Your Soul" which Courtney Galiano did a beautiful solo to on "So You Think You Can Dance."

(check it out, seriously, its only 38 seconds long and who wants to work on a Friday anyway?).

The "Sweet dreams are made of these" shirt...I don't even have the words to describe how much I love cupcakes so this t-shirt from shirt.woot is pure delight to me. Check out their product description......it might even be cuter than the shirt itself.

An Ellen Degeneres clip discussing the benefits of the "Hawaiian Chair," that claims helps you to work out at work. Really it just flings you around and around until you're so dizzy there is no way you could do any work. I wonder what Boss would do if I got one for my desk...

"Defendant trades murder plea for KFC, pizza" How could anyone not enjoy an article like that? Ok maybe not everyone would, it might be my criminal justice minor kicking in. HA!

Raisin Bran with soy milk. Not sure why I'm admitting to that, it kind of makes me close to 80 years old but I just can't help it. I love the stuff.

(Image from Entertainment Weekly Online) My new copy of "Mad Men," season 1. Season 2 has already started on AMC and now that I've watched the entire first season (it only took me 3 days, just to give you an indication of how good it is), I'm going to go use my parents for their Tivo and catch up over the weekend. By the way, this show is not just for the ladies. I got a marketing guy hooked on it just the other day. He claims his office is the 2008 version of the show. Scary?

Spending summer hours half days doing productive things, like checking out the Ellis Island photo exhibit at the MN Historical Society.

This amazingly creative and kick ass animation. How are people that clever? Seriously? Who thinks of making an animated cartoon in which the animation turns against the animator and uses all the tools that were used to create it to fight? IMPRESSIVE. (MJI and El Vato, I think you two will really enjoy this one!)

When people send me links and give me cool things to add to my "Things I love right NOW" Sidenote: collection...like Pam who gave me Bendy Guy and the Ellen clip and Andrew Jacob who introduced me to Woot and the murder plea article.

And finally...the weekend.
