a case of the mondays

normally monday is like any other day.

not today.

we had a superbowl party last night.  while we were sleeping, our annabelle decided to have a rager and ate a platter full of cookies off of the kitchen counter.  then she decided to vomit repeatedly all over our beautiful west elm rug.  then on the hardwoods.  then in her crate while we were at work.

i should really be more concerned about her well-being, but i'm just not (she's fine, i promise.  already back to her old self, aka on my nerves).

the puke stains on the rug quickly spiraled into me forgetting my bag at home, idiots driving under the speed limit the entire commute to work, a super busy work day and a grumpy first-grader to boot.

i know, i know. 

i have been trying to reverse my mood all day.  i have come up with three things that have made me feel slighty less murder-y:

1) this video of will ferrell lip-syncing a beyonce song on late night with jimmy fallon. i. can't. even.

i wish i could stream will ferrell all day at my desk.  is there a way to do that and still get work done?  this video is long but his beyonce bit is first.  i DARE you not to laugh. 

2) d'angelo's new cd.  specifically this song.

there are a few cd's i wore out in college.  one being d'angelo's album, voodoo (and a few others, including this one and this one).

so um, yea, he just performed on saturday night live and he no longer looks like this:

and now looks more like a black eccentric johnny depp/hobo/vacquero/artsy weirdo.

but that's ok, because his music is so, so good AND i am mature enough to know that looks aren't everything AND true love lasts forever.

3) i worked out. 

so there.

what do you do to try to get out of a funk?

you've been so quiet lately, i'd love to hear from you.

peace out and love you forever,

coco

p.s. the drawing of annabelle was a christmas gift for chris.  isn't it awesome?  i ordered it here.
