Thread: How to Smile More?

I try to not force a smile. If it made me look like Mona Lisa and made everyone wonder whether or not I'd just had the best orgasm ever, that'd be one thing. But it doesn't. It makes me look constipated.

The other night, on America's Got Talent a comedian opened with
"If you're going to pee in the pool (full voice, pause),
and hope to get away with it (almost as an aside, pause),
you should probably *be* in the pool."

I just realized: the beats are the same as Jeff Foxworthy's "You might be a redneck".

I've been laughing off and on ever since. Things like that amuse me. I store them up for when I need them, and keep them until the effect wears off. By the time it wears off, I'll get a new one.

Other go-to's: animals, baby animals, little kids, the candor of old people--omg, old people are a riot!--flowers, art, cool bugs, a good meme, Sarah Palin in a Snow White caricature with her cronies as the Seven Dwarves...

I kid you not...
For the past 6 months I've been starting each day by eating breakfast while watching an old episode of the Rocky & Bullwinkle Show, on DVDs from the library. When I finally got to the end of all five seasons last week, I just started over at the beginning again. They are hilarious, and the best way I know to get in a really good smiley mood every morning.
