Episode 15: How to Be Happy

Frankly, the few suggestions I give in this How To installment are all on the sugary-sweet, naïve side of advice-giving. Because I did all three of them today and they worked, instant mood-lifters. I admit there are some other days where these sort of Pollyanna-type activities would have no effect on my mood at all. In fact, on dark days such as those, I find that the only thing that can make me even the slightest bit happier is to Google old high-school or college enemies to see if they turned out more successful than me. If I'm lucky, their names pop up on mandatory sex-offender registries. If I'm really lucky, their names don't show up at all! And that is one happy day, let me tell you. I'm beaming just thinking about it.
