Heres a rant/idea: When I was a working woman (read: put on pants and drove a car to a building and communicated with people face-to-face), we did this groovy thing on Fridays after work. Maybe youve heard of it? Its called Happy Hour. Oh, Happy Hour, how I loved thee. With your frosty ales and half-priced greasy fried goodness, my colleagues and I laughing at our other colleagues. That was the life. Now that Im a work-from-home gal, my happy hour is bedtime. And thats a dang shame. The fact that I no longer have co-workers with whom to mock other co-workers coupled with the fact that when I turned on the news this morning, I learned that an American journalist was beheaded (seriously: WHO cuts off another persons head?), I began to yearn for HAPPY HOUR of my yesteryears. Not for the drinking (okay maybe a little), but for the lightness, the laughter, and the community (of drinking). So I hereby declare a new kind of #HappyHour and its goin down every night right here. You have to play or Im taking my ball and going home. The premise is simple: share one thing or forty things that made you HAPPY today. A trail of TP didnt follow you out of the bathroom? #HappyHour You got a promotion? #HappyHour You managed to not sell a child on eBay? #HappyHour Your grandchildren are visiting? #HappyHour You get it. Ill go first: The husband looked sincerely excited to see me when he got home from work today. He didnt noticed I hadnt washed my face today. #HappyHour
