Welcome 2 Happiness, Welcome 2 The Welcome Wagon

I’d like 2 begin this very LargeInContent post 2day by discussing simple joys.
Those little things that make u happy.
Things that ultimately r probably not gonna revolutionize ur life, but still find a way 2 bring u some very necessary happiness.

In honor of 1 of my fave books of all time, Charles Schultz’s Happiness is a Warm Puppy, here’s what happiness is 2 me:

Happiness is palm trees.

Happiness is skyping with ur besties when ur away.


Happiness is eating at Popovich aftr having EVK for 3 straight days.
(aka Happiness is eating somewhere good after eating shitty food 4 too long)

Happiness is a free 1/8th of Kush just 4 being some1’s frnd.

Happiness is hipster flee markets.


Happiness is TheCheesecakeFctry.


Happiness is landing in Southrn Cali aftr being in the cold 4 too long.

Happiness is Barack Obama instead of George W. Bush.


Happiness is cheap hipster sunglasses.


Happiness is a BuyOneGetOneFree coupon at Souplantation.


Happiness is 79degrees nd sunshine.


Happiness is 30 Rock.


Happiness is cuddling on a bean bag.

Happiness is unlimited diet coke refills.


Happiness is a custom designed tshirt given 2 u by ur biff.


Happiness is the open road, fresh tunes, and an outdated/epic/ballin car.

(love/hate/miss u LeSabre)

Happiness is the beach 4 the day with ur fave broskis.


Nd besides evrything i've mentioned so far...
Happiness is discovering something on the Interweb that rocks ur wrld.

This happened 2 me recently, with a homemade video that I've spammed out 2 some besties in the last few days. It's literally the definition of Happiness.
Bcuz it's with WALL-E.

If u havent seen this FutureAlt EcoChic irresistible2notLove film, then get the fk off ur chair, go 2 some ClosingSoon! store (cuz there are plenty around right now), buy it 4 $12 or so, and get ready 2 fall in love.
If u've seen it, then u understand why Happiness is WALL-E.
Happiness is BrillzPixarFilms.

Nd happiness is the following vid that I'm sharing with u now:


If that didn't instantaneously put a smile on ur face, then u srsly r straight up mentally ill/void of any emotion/r the antiChrist/antiHRO.

If u r still smiling bcuz of how happy it made u, then u, my frnd, are 1 cool human.
So go you. Or, in othr wrds, 2 repeat what my frnd said 2 end our intense telePhonalConvo the othr day, "Yay."

Oh, nd one more thng:
Happiness is Finding Amazing Amazing Music b4 most ppl do.
Which just recently happened 2 me.
In the best way ever.

Let me introduce u 2 The Welcome Wagon.
Singers:
Reverend Thomas Vito Aiuto and his wife Monique.
Producer nd Backing Vocals: Sufjan Stevens.

This is just asking 4 something musically incredible.

Nd trust me, it is.
It's folky, wintry, religious, plain, nd beautiful.
A dream scene from 'A Melodic IndieWinter,' a short film I hope 2 someday make using all the songs from their debut album, "Welcome to the Welcome Wagon".

Here's 2 tracks from the duo+Soof (click track name 2 dwnload):

The Welcome Wagon - American Legion



The Welcome Wagon - Sold! To the Nice Rich Man

Happiness is a Blog Made 4 Bitching,
