& all the awesomeness.

Yeah, yeah, two posts in one day.. A little excessive? Definitely.
So, I'm a firm believer in laughter. Like, the good kind of laughter - the real kind, not that tiny-little-fake-chuckle stuff.. One time somebody asked me what I'd want to be doing when I die.. Most people would say, "doing what I love!" or crazy things, like skydiving.. Right? Well, I decided I want to be laughing, because that is what I love. Is that totally cheesy? Yep, it probably is. But the thing is.. It's not hard to laugh. Also, that whole "laughter is the best medicine" stuff is totally & completely valid. When I'm at the end of my rope, completely bummed out, or even depressed as can be.. If you can get me to laugh, I'm a total goner. & it really does work. So, when I'm old & gray, regardless of how successful my life has been, regardless of how much money I have or haven't made, regardless of whatever hard things I may go through in my life - I will still laugh.

Laugh all you want at these cool sites. If you haven't seen em, you're missin' out:

Also, for your giggling, chuckling, chortling internet amusement:

Jack Handey always has wonderful things to say;

Urban Dictionary is basically, definitely promising (but, click at own risk - I can't be held responsible for anything racy you may or may not read!);

For all you crazy college kids, there's CollegeHumor;

& if all else fails, you can never go wrong with quotes from The Office;

So go ahead & laugh your faces off.

xo. :)

P.S. Cutest kids ever brought me down a plate full of homemade lemon bars they wanted to surprise me with as a goodbye gift & a note reading,

"Dear: Jesica,

We are sad you are leaving.

Please enjoy the lemon bars."

With all their names signed at the bottom. I also got a lot of big, cute hugs & a couple slobbery kisses. Plus, there were four lemon bars.. & they were very specific to inform me that I could eat two & Brandon could eat two. Gosh, I'm gonna miss them.
