so, blue monday is almost over...and while it was clearly invented a few years ago as a pr stunt, i definitely didn't feel on top of the world as i sludged (verb?) through the sludge to the bus stop to wait in the cold and the falling snow, for a bus that took its sweet time coming, to a slow, mundane monday (it's my new discovery that monday and mundane are practically homonyms and so that's why mondays are always so mundane).
- my still-hungover-from-saturday-night-and-i-hate-snow face
so here are five things to make you banish the monday blues...they work for me at least.
1. girls is on sky atlantic on a monday night
- hannah eats cake naked in the bathroom. what of it?
2. property porn. this is my fave thing to do to love / hate my life and lack of long term forward thinking savings plan. i often like to go to zoopla.com and find the most expensive house in wherever my area of choice is at the time. case in point: this amazing former pub in bethnal green. i would totally pay like all my savings to live there (unlikely the owners would accept), but do away with a lot of the junk (though let's face it i'd easily fill it with a lot of my own...
- my future home...?
3. talking heads - this must be the place (naive melody)
i will be dancing to this when i'm bridesmaid at (one of) my bff's weddings next year. i need to learn a routine.

4. jeurgen teller. he is my idol and i wish we were bffs and he could just follow me around and document my life in amazing photos. he is exhibiting in london starting in just a few short days at the ica so i am making it my mission to go at least once. i wish i could narrow my favourite photos of his down to one or two, but i can't. here are some that i love.
- kate moss chez ronnie wood
- marc jacobs daisy
- wet puppy - not a euphamism
5. buzzfeed. my current addiction for all things cute, funny, and quiz-based.
- best proposal ever?
- i need cake!!!
..and there we have it! if you can get away with a sneak peek at any of these in your lunch break (definitely not when you should be working, no way), then it will definitely lift your spirits and / or inspire you to stop spending money down the pub and instead invest into owning one...likely to happen? oh fuck it - live for the moment.
