This morning when I woke up I saw this Facebook post from the Dalai Lama and....well, to be honest, I just didn't care.
"A lot of the problems we face are essentially man-made, so naturally as human beings we should also be able to reduce them. Natural disasters, of course, are in a different category, but according to environmental scientists even they may owe something to human behaviour. Therefore, if we are optimistic, take a longer view, and we employ realistic methods, we can contribute to making the world a better place."
The whole thing put me in a good mood. Which is why I switched up my morning song for the dogs. Normally they just get my rendition of "Good Morning" from Singin' in the Rain but today I was pumped up so they got this.
Mostly because, that's how they do in the morning. See?
It's been a happy morning here in the hovel. I was checking out my friends posts, drinking coffee, singing to cheerful dogs when I came across this post from my brilliant friend Cliff.
I made coffee, sang to the dogs and kept trolling Facebook where I came across this because my friend posted it thinking it was funny. I don't mean to be self-absorbed but....uh.....isn't this MY pun from last night after work? It's the same picture I used! It's my pun!

| Oh no you didn't! If anyone is spreading Vladdy on a cracker, it's me! |
I feel so......used? No, that's not it. Overexposed? No...no....I feel so....illustrious! I feel sort of bad, too because honestly, I think Vladdy would have preferred that this picture be super-imposed over a cracker. I mean, am I right or am I right? I'm right. I know I am.

| No dinner for me tonight. I'll just enjoy hors d'oeuvres instead. The house keeper put out these crackers and then you walked in, shirtless, after fishing.... |

| Good morning. Can we go for walkies? Can we have a treat? We love you! |

Slime mold showing us that togetherness matters and that self-sacrifice is part of making certain we survive. The film reminded me of countless sci-fi movies that depict future humans fleeing our about-to-be-destroyed planet in space ships.
All the sudden, I realized that the Dalai Lama was more on point than I may have given him credit for while I was scooping Columbian roast coffee and singing Fatboy Slim and the Groove Armada to my animals.
He's such a massive show off. What about me and my now infamous cracker? I'm going to work so I can focus on filing stuff and answering phones. Life is too short to worry about being upstaged by his holiness all the time.

| Yeah, yeah. Everybody loves you. So what? I'm still not picking up the tab for lunch today! |
Saffron robes my arse.
Your ever lovin',
