...to sing about 'the shape of you'! =========================================================================== by PAM I know, I know, the past few posts were grim. OK, so let me make it up to you (assuming we have a 'you' here, that is) with this, and see if it doesn't crack you up like it did me...
"Come on, now, follow my lead... I'm in love with the shape of you..."
Hahaha.... oh, gosh! Now, isn't that fun? So hilarious!
But, really, seriously... what if, the great "Presidential Lecturer" himself really tried singing "Shape of you"? I'd wager he'd do really great. Are we ever going to find out? Ah, gosh... I wish we'd see the day when Pres. Barack Obama really gets the pop singing going, seriously!
OK, I wish I had more time here... but I gotta go. 'Daily grind', ya know... whatever.

...it down, down, down! And let the pressure down! ========================================================================= by PAM I'm really tired. I am. I kid you not, I'm serious. I really wish that we had more days in a week, and that we had more than two days to call "weekend" because Saturday is still a work day for me... and then, it goes on and on until evening, too. So, on Sundays... I'm just "dead", I can't even begin to describe how tired I feel. :( And, you know what, when we can't describe how tired we feel, chances are we're on the verge of catastrophic 'mental break down' - and that is never good, it's beyond 'bad' in fact. Therefore, I need to re-charge a bit... 'cause the last five weeks were EXTREMELY hard. I worked like a 'madwoman' every single minute of my extended days - seriously! Through it all, I kept chastising myself what a terrible and merciless brute I was to myself, whipping myself to labor like a slave horse 24/7 in those five looong weeks! And I am done for. I am completely exhausted that when I move one finger, it feels like lifting a 10-lb weight - it's just too hard, my tank is completely empty! I'm on the verge... therefore, I must STOP! So, yep, I need to 're-charge my batteries'! I need something to remind me how beautiful life truly is... and not as bleak and dreary as the tiresomely boring schedule and work load I am so unfortunately stuck with at the moment. I need help - quickly! A shot of happy sunshine... some 'sugar rush', a rush of happiness! So, let me begin with this...
Graham Norton: "Guys, I know I'm paid to chat, but I think it's fair to just put
all the cards down, and we all stare (at) Henry for a while." (5:19 - 5:30)
Russell Crowe: "They pay you so well but they treat you like s**t." (14:15 - 14:20)
Hahaha... I expected to be wowed by the legendary Russell Crowe's wit and humor and the extremely talented Amy Adams' wit and humor, and be awed by Henry Cavill's wit, humor, and, ahem, absolute beauty... but I didn't expect to end up teary eyed from all the laughter. :) These guys were brilliant in this show's episode! Graham Norton is just amazing, he is. And, yes, I am only three years late, too! Graham looks a lot younger in this video than he does now... but better late than never! :) But if you happen to be interested in the 'updated' version of the video above, click here. Now, that is funny, too. Henry Cavill is as beautiful as in the first one, but Ben Affleck did his best, and Amy Adams is funny without even trying. So, it's all great! :) And what is 're-charging batteries' if it doesn't include something from James Corden? I say, it isn't truly re-charging batteries - seriously. Therefore, here's the man whose show "The Late Late Show with James Corden" just won its first Emmy Awards: Outstanding Interactive Show and Outstanding Variety Special:
"Where's my jacket, guys? Where's my Danny Zuko?
I can't! I can't go on without my f***in jacket, guys! Where is iiit?" (1:11 - 1:25)
Hahaha... oh, gosh, don't you just love this man and the creators of this Show? So creative, so hilarious, I tell ya! Hahaha... but James Corden is not just funny, he's a warm big bear.
Alright, time for some snack. Uh, what? I'm 're-charging batteries' here, of course, it involves midnight snacks! ;)

...nah, make that 'extremely' hostile days! ====================================================================== by PAM Yep, hostile - very, very frustrating... it all is. It's amazing how some people can have a great variety of ways to inflict frustration on people that even those who are most resistant to frustration sigh unusually heavily at the end of the day. Yep, they can be that darn good at being 'frustration mongers'! But life goes on... just because some people's causes are all that meaningful and absolutely worth fighting for that frustration cannot be allowed to settle for more than a day. Therefore, I am bringing in my most potent frustration antidote these days....
"Butch and Sundance are back!"
Yeah, that feels good: Harvey Specter and Mike Ross, no less, talking about Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid - no less! How sweet is that? It's very potent. In fact, life is beginning to look all rosy again... but not quite there yet. That frustration aftertaste still lingers... I need to wash it off. I wonder if this is sweet enough...
"You said you're good... I'm good, too."
Oy, classic! "You said you're good... I'm good, too." And, hey, just so you know, I mean that! Therefore, move over... 'cause you're so over! :) Uh, wait, every good laugh deserves a third helping. So, let's have it...
"I know body language..."
Alright, we're good. Time to throw back frustration to its origin - by focusing on the cause now. All set? Let's do it! :) *** Video credits: Thanks, YouTube, for the video links. ***
