You can be my hero...

I met Stephan Pastis.

Comics are even more hilarious when read by the creator.

Signing my calendar on the "wonderful day we met"

Witty. Handsome. Creative. Dreamy.

I met my hero.

Relax, just do it..

Ways to fix a bad day:

1. Blast KC and the Sunshine band...at midnight or late afternoon, its never too soon
2. Put up the blinds and throw open/ slide up the windows, let the sunshine pour in!
3. Bake cookies..chocolate, chocolate-chip, chocolate-chip with oatmeal..so many options
4. Eat the products of #3, preferably with vanilla ice cream

5. Lie outside, like a starfish, in the grass
6. Put on make-up and put on a favorite outfit- sometimes a girl just needs to feel pretty.
7. Vintage day! listen to Frank on vinyl and watch a Jimmy Stewart film
8. Hot showers, also see: how to cure any ailment  (including toothaches)
9. Play with pets, watching Toby get so excited about me throwing a stick or Hugh and Fitz chase after string can make me smile in an instant
10. Cuddle, I prefer with my hubby, but Toby makes a good substitute

 This is how Alex found me after I found out about a terrible test grade.

....And if none of that works..have a margarita

..lots of margaritas
