Bio: I'm Deborah Hymes, a corporate communications crackerjack, social media maven, blogger and content creator—the owner of WanderNot, Inc., a creative communications company. My posts offer cheeky thoughts and observations on pop culture, relationships, the single life, stupid human tricks, and anything else floating past my field of vision. I live on a small island in San Francisco Bay, and I have an abiding weakness for Italian fountain pens, Chanel lipsticks, and fabulous shoes.

Obviously, life's better when we're having fun. So why is it so difficult to remember to just enjoy our daily lives instead of scheduling our fun for the upcoming weekend or that evening out with friends?

I'm not big on New Year's resolutions. But this irresistible, animated vid is so in sync with my own natural philosophy that it's inspired me to create more fun in my life in 2010.

To sum up:

• Be flagrantly yourself! (My favorite principle.)

• Embrace selfishness. (It's a good thing.)

• Break the rules.

• Take chances.

• Lighten up.

• Simplify.

• Slow down.

• Start something.

Happy Friday everyone! Enjoy your weekend. ;)

Stress kills, some people take things way to serious. Laughing at ones self and the absurdity of things around them is far better than any medication. Nice piece....o/e
