Maybe it's the beautiful weather. Or that, even in these trying times, I'm inclined to see the glass as half-full rather than half-empty. Whatever it is, I just can't bring myself to be cranky today. Sarah Palin could walk in the office right now and I'd probably give her a wink and a hug and tell her to keep her formidable chin up. So rather than pick nits and force out an insincerely cranky post, here are a few reasons why I'm in such a good mood today:

I had a blueberry bagel this morning. Blueberries on their own are quite good. Mix them in bagel batter, and they’re fabulous! (So long as you cook the batter).

Megan Fox. Just looking at her makes me happy. Really happy. I mean, really happy.

The slumping economy. Sure, the news is all bad right now, but has there ever been a better time to buy?

A Hello Kitty exhaust pipe. How can you look at this and not feel all warm inside? It could be installed on the back of a Hummer and I'd still get all doe-eyed and want to kiss the driver on the lips.

Wade Tatangelo getting torn a new one in the comments section of his latest Bar Tab. Which is good because this will help Wade grow as a writer (if not in physical stature).

It’s Friday. And that means Friday Dance Party. Which I've taken great care in assembling to make my co-workers as cheerful as I am! I love you guys, you ROCK!

Have a great weekend everybody!
