Post some of your own music that chases off bad moods! Or cat pictures! Or corgi videos! Or anything else that makes you smile or brings back a little of the sunlight!

I can be remarkably cheered up by any of the songs from The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T-"Get Together Weather" and the "Dressing Song (Do-Mi-Do Duds)" in particular.

(Should either song become stuck in your head, I own mp3s and will gladly share.)

I sing this song ALL THE TIME. Debbie will vouch for that, in between screaming and trying to kill me.

Oh my. That's astounding. I think I might need this album.

If any of the VP14 students think they really need to sing this at a writing workshop, I'm suggesting they apply to Clarion.

I...

If they need to sing this, we need to film it. Can we start having Musical Number night? Plaid suits optional.

...and now that's an earworm. But a good one!

And now I'm hungry for bananas too.
