My never fail list of awesome things for one of 'those' days

[sarahlovesa.livejournal.com]

Ok - here are some things that prove that life does not entirely suck:

Have just found this and now I HAVE to get hold of the 'Community' DVDs.

Maybe you don't watch 'Castle' but this made me laugh so much on a bad day.

I bless a world where a ridiculously tall, clumsy girl who is not exactly a skinny minnie is THE biggest thing on British tv at the moment. Yah boo sucks to those who think only cookie cutter females can make it and be funny and attractive and adorable. I have watched 'Miranda' an unbelievable number of times since I found it at Christmas.

Since you mentioned Les Mis in a post, I have had the songs playing endlessly in my head, and the existence of Michael Ball in the world just makes me do a little happy dance in my chair.

Because this whole series of vids is hilarious and I had to include Spuffy somewhere in my 'the universe ain't that bad' list.

British comedy Quiz show - Start watching from 7.41. My parents and I have never laughed so hard at a quiz show before. I think I peed myself a little bit. LOL

'Nativity' - Completely and utterly adorable film with Martin Freeman. I first saw it on the plane and must have looked like a lunatic as I sat there weeping and laughing alternately. Now my go-to movie if I need cheering up. Watch it for Mr Poppy if nothing else. Even the trailer makes me die. 'Sparkle and shine'!

Craig Ferguson does a musical version of 'Doctor Who', with aliens, puppets and a little cameo by Matt Smith - now, what could be better than that?

Darcy, dives into the lake, comes out in wet shirt. Hey, call me shallow, but that image can restore my mood pretty damn fast.

Well, I could go on as I keep thinking of more things! But I hope any of these helps. And I hope your day has improved.

PS - YOUR WRITING - absolute proof that life is good. Can't tell you how many times your stories have cheered me up. So find a mirror, have a look and you will see another item on my never fail list of awsesome things! :)

Oh, look at all of those! Most of them look like they may be new to me, but the ones that aren't--the Matt Smith on Craig Ferguson and of course Michael Ball--are guaranteed delights. So thank you so much! They look like such fun!

No apologies! What could you be apologizing for? :D

I am an English teacher. If I make a typo I feel a physical pain at my own inadequacy!

I am going to watch the videos I sent you as EVERYONE said it was going to snow today and we would get a snow day. But I woke up to a world horribly snow free! So now I need cheering up.:)
