In need of a laugh!

We all have them. Those days when you’re boiling over with stress and tension. Some days you just need to laugh, to keep from yourself from crying. Another writer described it this way, “some days you just have to create your own sunshine.”

Here’s me creating my own sunshine:

–“Death is nature’s way of saying, ‘Your table’s ready.’ ” —Robin Williams

–“Wearing a Hawaiian shirt, you don’t ever come across as offensive. Nobody sees you as a threat. You see someone in a Hawaiian shirt, and you are like ‘this guy is ready to party.’” —Gabriel Inglesias
