Is Your Costume Better Than This?

HAPPY HALLOWEEN :)

X Marks The Spot

Should this guy get some points?

Don't Tell Him, Paul

Were just going to the vet. 

It's nothing bad, he will just take your temperature.

The vet will just put the thermometer in, well...ready to go?

 

Here's Something To Look At

What is this? Answers on a postcard.

Blasphemy?

It's fun to stay at the:

Monday's Full Inbox

It's Monday and your emails are numerous and you are out of control:

You're boss has dumped a load of 'stuff' into your inbox over the weekend:

After that the rest is spam:

In this situation the optimist sees the emails as people caring about him/her. 

The pessimist sees that nobody important cares about him/her. 

The realist sees it for what it actually is:

Happy Monday, folks :)

OMG - Mr. Sink

Just what DID happen to the sink?:

Because it used to look like this:

Mr. Sink, what happened?:

Oh...I see!

It's Getting Colder

You know it is getting closer to Winter when you put your feet out of the bed and they hit the floor, only to spring back up and under the covers.

But if that didn't happen, check the Captain Kirk thermostat:

If you are still uncertain if it actually is cold then use the Spock-o-meter:

Or perhaps family pets have body parts stuck to things:

Or when looking out of the window, creatures who should not feel the cold, are doing this:

So we have now established that it IS cold, BUT WHY???

All Things Knightmare

Recently I have come across an old UK TV show that I remembered from my younger days. It's called 'Knightmare'. If you don't know what it is click here for the 'skinny':

A more entertaining and VERY funny read about the game is found here, and it is worth it for people who already know the TV show as there are phrases and other things that will make you laugh:

Or just watch an episode here:

So what has Treguard been up to all of these years alone in the castle?:

He could have just played the 'Knightmare Catchphrase' to keep himself amused, but if you play it be warned, you need to know what you seek for your quest:

If Treguard had stayed here in the castle I would have shared with him the secret to finding his 'Knightmare Soulmate':

But I think he has already found him:

Quick Message For The Kids

Let's hear what 'Bozo The Clown' has to say:

Just in the event that you didn't realise what all the 'fuss' was about with clowns. 

They are freaky and you know it. It doesn't matter how much they try to make it better either:

To most folk they still look like this:

Cats Hate Monday

Welcome back after the weekend. A lot of people will have been grumpy this morning due to it being Monday. Having had a weekend of getting up when you want, it annoys you to get up at a work related time.

I've come to the conclusion that the more you enjoy sleep, the more you hate Mondays.

We all know that cats are lazy as hell, so we can deduce that they hate Mondays more than their human counterparts. If you don't believe me here is the visual evidence:

It's hard to even open your eyes on a Monday:

Let alone function at full capacity:

Eventually, they make it to the shower room to refresh themselves for work:

 Just so they can look their best:

Happy For Coffee?

As per usual I am about to start my day of work in my study...and...I've had TWO VERY LARGE coffees in quick succession:

Some will think this is too much coffee to have and it may affect me in a destructive way, turning me into a jabbering idiot:

 While others will realise that it is the only way to work:

I guess it all boils down to if you like coffee or not. Or even how you like to take it:

Personally, I can't start my day in the study without asking one very important question:

And I can't end my day without thinking:

I guess I could be called a coffee addict:

But it really does help me to function at an ultra-productive level. Perhaps I do have a problem when I see this as the best candidate for world leader:

What's Under Your Mask?

Yesterday I posted a blog about being stressed due to the number of projects I have 'on the go' at the moment. Just to clarify that doesn't mean that I am sad inside, if anything I am excited and happy, with a concerned exterior.

This tends to be the opposite of most people, who may feel stressed but are smiling on the outside:

If you feel this way you are NOT alone. A lot of people feel stressed but put on a brave face for the rest of the world.

However, by making the simple choice of being optimistic instead of pessimistic can work wonders on your happiness and success:

Optimism and pessimism are about what we expect out of a given situation, and expectation always lives in the future as it has yet to happen. As none of us really know what will happen in the future it is always guesswork. 

You have a CHOICE, to see this future outcome as positive or negative:

Your chances of success are greatly increased when you just realise your perception of an outcome can greatly alter it. Visualising a successful outcome has been proven to statistically make that eventuality more likely happen.

So remember it all comes down to a simple choice:

Stressed?

Recently, I have been working on a lot of different projects. I guess the bane of having a large spurt of creativity is that it gives you too much to work on. As a person who likes to start things instead of putting them off this normally means that I end up juggling a LOT of things:

But it's OK because when I feel stressed I have a practical method for dealing with it:

Which provides at least a few moments of cessation:

Reader's who feel stressed (even a little) should remember to relax otherwise people may begin to notice:

So remember FRANKIE SAYS RELAX:

I Lost Too Much Weight

Today's blog post focuses on something that happened over the past few days. After some preliminary filming for my new promo footage I noticed that my suit looked WAY too big. Since I purchased my latest suits I have lost around 3st. But because it happened slowly I just didn't notice.

So yesterday I took my suits into the tailors to be resized. Thankfully, he didn't give me this type of advice:

I just couldn't believe how much extra fabric was being pinned out by the end of the consultation. I must have seemed so swamped by it:

But I couldn't help feel a sense of achievement as I looked down at my suits. They were a visual representation of the my weight loss and the determination it took to get back to a healthy weight:

I am also glad that I lost the weight so gradually that I didn't notice. My secret was to reduce my carb intake and to eat sensibly, with the occasional treat.

If you want to lose weight quick though, there is always this option:
