I. FBT prompt #5 is about laughter, and I’m here to tell you very simply that I am fucking hilarious and I love my sense of humour. I don’t know where I’d be without it. It is the glue in so many of my relationships, and if we’re not laughing together on the regular, I’m probably not going to stick around. It’s a *need*. I need it. I neeeeeeed it. So, Internet memes, TikTok, news blooper reels, singing goats…all of it. I want all of it.
I don’t watch sitcoms, though. I just don’t find them all that funny/interesting. I do love Hannah Gatsby, though. That’s my kind of comedy. Also, Stephen Colbert & John Oliver. Shared outrage delivered with a punch line suits me just fine.
If you make me laugh, I’m yours for life.

I laughed way too hard at this.
III. Variants of concern are really freaking me out. Ontario is in trouble – especially our younger population. So is the rest of Canada. *Continues to hunker down so I don’t die or kill anyone.*
IV. Despite that, I am still in a pretty good headspace. I’ve got Kimi today for an episode or two of The Stand. I met with Brian Walsh (my favourite storyteller) to film for Moonshine over the weekend and it was edifying and inspiring. I headed into Azeroth last night to kill things with GG and it was *so much fun*. I had nibbles for lunch – Brie, olives stuffed with garlic, some cucumbers dipped in Asiago and artichoke dip – and PIZZA for dinner. I’ve been craving cucumbers, which probably means I’m dehydrated, so I’ve got my massive gallon water bottle full and I’ll be working on it all day. I took delivery of a second galaxy projector because my studio wants one. I also stocked up on dog food because I’ve been worrying about shortages – my dogs are on Acana Duck Breast and Pear, because Sookie is allergic to grains AND chicken, so I can’t just buy any old dog food. Being stocked up feels good. I painted yesterday, and I will probably paint again today. BOD is already shaping up for May.
I am loved. All is well.
V. Renee has a new e-course and I am SO EXCITED.
VI. The Blog Along is gorgeous. I am loving getting up every morning, making coffee, and reading blogs. There are so many absolutely gorgeous thinkers, artists and writers participating this year. (Waves at my bloggers – HI I LOVE YOU).

VIII. The meme above came across my newsfeed yesterday and I yoinked it immediately because yessssssssssss.
IX. My head is all up in work stuff so I think I’ll get on with it. I want to be done what needs doing in time to enjoy my time with Kimi.
X. See you tomorrow. <3
I’m planning to blog every day this month along with a crew of almost 300 other bloggers in my “Artfully Wild Blog Along“. If you’d like to join us, you are most welcome! Both bloggers and readers are invited to join in the fun! The only requirement is that you agree to comment on three blog posts for every blog post you share in our Facebook
::waves back:: I love you!
Mwah!
I’m looking forward to hanging out too! and I also relate to the hissing meme
Right? HISSSSSSSS.
Totally feeling the hissing meme and apparently channeling my inner Archie Bunker as I’ve had to yell at husband and son and dog to “Get out of my chair!” several times already this week.
*Bwahahahaha* That doesn’t sound like you *at all*. <3
So digging this group blogging vibe again! And I am a sucker for all the memes, jokes etc. We are hunkered down in France again. It will be my son’s second birthday in a lockdown. He understands but is bummed out. But we are enjoying the family time, and his teachers are being reasoanble, so I am letting him become kinda feral. :)
Becoming feral seems to be the only reasonable response to *waves at all of this*. <3
You are hilarious! And I love you. ♥️
I love you, too.
I am right there with you Effy about needing humor and laughter. That is why I created my fun page on Facebook filled with all kinds of funny and stupid stuff. I will be blogging about that in time.
I also love reading more than just the 3 blogs and replying. They are so much fun.
So glad you started this, this year. Thank you.
Me, too! I’d forgotten how fun it was to challenge myself like this, and all the lovely blogs to read in the morning are just what the doctor ordered.
I’m jumping back into blogging, and I love this — LAUGHTER. I had many months of being barely able to answer a simple question, much less laugh. But now I’m back, baby. Love you!
Love you, toooooooo! I love that you’re blogging!
YAS to Hannah Gadsby. Also, good humor is so sexy. I’m enjoying connecting with so many bloggers and yes to Renee’s new course.
Will I see you in there then? I signed up a couple of days ago. WOOT!
*waving like a madwoman* Hi! Love you, too! I would be dead without my sense of humor! Straight fact! You make me laugh on the regular, just so you know. Have fun with Kimi!
I’m so glad I make you laugh. Laughter is a gift I love to share!
I have the same hair now. Humour is everything. Thanks for the blogalong, I’m late(r than usual with everything this month) <3
It’s been lovely reading you!!
I love this hissing meme… I wonder though, if my people see a change in me since this *waves around* thing started, hmm. My sense of humour is dry and dark, my daughter would say ;) not for everyone but if you make me really laugh, I will love you too for it ahah
I think we’re all changed, even if those changes aren’t obvious. It’s been a loooooooong pandemic, and you moved in the middle of it all! <3
And we love you back! Great Blog Along!! Lots of great blogs to read!
I know, right? So much loveliness.
All of this is so good. It’s like having a conversation with a friend, just talking about all the things.
Mmm hmmm. I love this morning routine!
I think one of the best compliments I ever got was when I was trying to explain to someone who I was, and they said, “oh, you’re that woman that laughs so much!” It’s a big thing in my life too;
I was at a festival once, and someone made me laugh and I heard someone say from across the fire “I need that laugh in my life!” and she came over and introduced herself to me. Turns out she is one of my favorite pagan musicians!! It was a lovely moment.
