A little office tip


Never underestimate the power of a wind-up toy to brighten your day. I came into my office fairly grumpy and frustrated this afternoon. My supervisor, in an attempt to get rid of the very unpopular grumpy version of me, wound up a little frog toy and let it dance around on the desk. Despite my best efforts, I smiled and felt a little bit better about my bad day. Nothing really changed... but that darn frog dispelled a little bit of the dark cloud that was living above my head.

Funny what will bring people out of a funk. :)

This is the exact reason I avoid wind up toys. I want to be in control of my own bad moods...I can't have some toy controlling my emotions :)
