Did you get your smile in today??
Smile therapy works.
Don’t take my word for it, try it out yourself. Tomorrow, when you inevitably feel like clobbering someone because they’re a complete idiot, or some jackass cuts you off in the fast lane because, dammit, you just weren’t going the 80 kms an hour over the speed limit you should be… Try smiling.
It sounds retarded… I know. I, myself, had pretty much forgotten about how it worked for me in stupid, obnoxious situations in the past until recently. My friend Kim used to kill herself laughing when she saw that “smile” light up my face after something stupid / annoying happened to me (and, if she’s reading this, she’ll know EXACTLY what I’m talking about). I thought I’d dig that coping mechanism up the other day, and what do you know — It TOTALLY worked.
So, I’ve had a ridiculous grin on my face all day today, for various reasons — People probably thought I was a total nutbar but, hell, I felt soooo much better. I think it releases endorphins or something. I don’t know, I’m not a physician…
Just try it, trust me.

Heheheheh…. I remember those faces.
Heya Tod! Ya, I *bet* that you do!!
Too funny…
Having a smile on your face ’cause of “unreasonable” happiness really drives other people nuts. Good 4 you! Yeah!
Yes, that’s my ultimate goal in life, anyhow (driving people nuts). The way I see it, I’m killing two birds with one stone!
