Most of my favorite comedians are what I like to call "complainers" and they bitch about the screwed up things that happen to them. Screwed up things happen to me a lot I figure if I bitch about them but try to be entertaining about it , they won't seem as bad.
Sometimes the negativity overtakes me and I can't find the funny way to say that there is a 150 lbs dead rottweiler in my front yard, that no one will come and get it (animal services, sheriff, trash guys). Did I mention that I don't have a dog, and that every time I call each of these places they tell me to call another one or to bury it myself? Again - not my dog.
Realizing that I'm becoming overly negative and the silver lining isn't as obvious I have decided as one of my new years resolutions, to start listing the positive things in my life just 5 a day.
These can be huge things - like getting an awesome new car to replace my 10 year old mini-van or 10 year old wind up toy car
Or something smaller - like having an easy time getting my daughter out of bed in the morning (having an easy time getting her to bed at night would be a miracle).
