Funny blogs help me get through my day.

Guys, I don't know about you. But when I'm at work as a counselor, in between people, I need something that's going to crack me up.

Today, I started out at Steam Me Up, Kid. A good start!

But then! I got linked to a regular commenter on her site, Miss Yvonne.

And then! I got linked to a weight loss blog, fatdad5k, and I was all: SWEET! A dude out there trying to do what I'd love to do!

And then, I found his post about Festivus.

I may be a Jewish chick going home to her semi-Christian family for Kwanzaa this year, but I was so thankful for the reminder of what the holiday season really is about.

Festivus. The holiday for the rest of us.

Macaroni and cheese, the airing of grievances: this is what holidays should be made of.

Thanks, Fatdad.

So glad to meet you.
