laugh until it hurts every day

I haven’t been on here in ages, and maybe some of my goals aren’t really finished, but outdated. Stuff that really isn’t a priority for me any more.

This goal isn’t like that. Maybe because I spents hours doing just this last night, and it felt so damn good that I really want for it to continue. sigh Just a really fantastic weekend.

I have spent the most marvellous 4 days on an island called Brbinj this summer. I laughed more in those 4 days then i did for the past 4 years. I’m finding it very hard to find that kind of joy these days. It all seems gloomy. Don’t get me wrong, I do laugh every day. But I’d love to find that pure happiness again.

I have a 70 yr old mom and an 11 yr old. Trust me between the senior observations and the 11 yr old pre-pubescent observations I am always in hysterics. Also Sara Silverman jut kills me…..Just saw the episode when she got addicted to cough syrup and broke into the television studio. Hilarious.

I accomplished this goal on Sunday as well. I have the best bunch of coworkers…we have no boundaries, and with the work we do, it’s no surprise, really. They make me laugh quite often, and remind me to laugh at myself too. The best part of the day was when we blocked Bri’s car in so she couldn’t leave until the rest of us were done playing spoons. I love these guys!

Monday was just a typical day, but today I talked to my friend Jamie, who made me laugh by telling me a story that someone told her. I love Jamie for this. We joke that she’s my personal trainer since you can burn calories from good belly laughs. :-)

I actually did this today! I was playing outside with teh kids at work…it was so nice out and we were laughing when Jay sat on a milk crate and broke it (after a chair broke on him the other day!) then he stuck a kid inside a different (unbroken!) milk crate! I laughed until I cried watching him try to get out!

Something that is nice to do when you are with people that you love… Make sure that when you are laughing you really do mean it, I find that I have that problem.

This is the best feeling in the world.

It’s not as hard as you think…Just talk to your friends and hang out with funny people. Although it does help that I laugh all the time at almost anything. I have very funny friends :P

I don’t know how to do this. How can this really be a goal? I’d like to be able to laugh until it hurts every day… but then it would lose its specialty. I’ll accept the fact that it comes rarely, and change my goal to ‘laugh every day,’ because that is more important, I think.

You’re never wasting time if you’re laughing.
