Psst. Step into my office.

in Random Crap

Sorry I fell off the world for a bit. I got overwhelmed and exhausted and then I got my second covid vaccine (YAY!) and stayed in bed for a day because it made me tired and achey (BUT STILL WORTH IT) but now I am back and to make up for being gone please step into my office and lets look at these tiny videos that I saved for you because I knew you’d want to see them:

  1. Glad you are doing OK, Jenny. And as always, thanks very much for the laughs. 🙂

  2. My 2nd shot is next Monday. I’m totally calling in sick the next day if I feel bad.

  5. I must know – Who is laughing in the background as your Dad is rolled by the monster dog?

  8. Honestly just died laughing and was brought back because I had to laugh more 😂😂😂😂😂

  10. OMG thank you. The upside down cat was a freaking SUPER HERO… and then it just kept going and going. I laughed right up until the end. Laughs that I needed. I hope they helped lift you up when you spiraled a bit too. Hmm, spiraled. Think from now on I’ll call that a Pandemic Pirouette.

  11. Hahaha, glad you’re back and feeling better! That second shot is a bit of a doozy, but sweet relief to have it over and done with.
    These made my laugh meter rise for the day, very helpful for my recovery as I am lounging about after hip surgery.
    Thank you!

  12. I would like to work in your office a lot more fun than mine these days… and Caroline you are a rotten recipe stealing bitch :)-

  13. Oh, thank you. Work, life, whatever…everything has been stressful and those were fun.

  15. OMG! Someone stole my broccoli!! Hilarious. Thanks for the laugh. My second shot was easy peasy, thank goodness. I am not sure if the hydration worked: 100 ounces the day before, the day of and the day after. Surprised when they inserted the needle the nurse didn’t get a squirt in the eye.

  18. Tax issues are frustrating me at the moment, so I needed a laugh. The dog licking the cat with his leg draped over it was great. Then he put his whole mouth over the cats head! Yikes! The cat didn’t seem to mind…

  20. Yay for getting the vaccine! I’ve been having stomach issues all day and been crying a lot and dang this post was exactly what I needed! I kept thinking each one would be my favorite until I got to another one, lol.

  22. Ok well now I need an otter to feed and a hedgehog so I can brush his teeth. However, that toddler carrying the cat like that made me cringe so hard and ratcheted my anxiety way up. But the rest were great 🙂

  25. Thank you!!!! I really needed this laugh. Off to watch more random internet drama! 😎

  28. Thanks you so very very! I had my 2nd shot and a day later I feel like someone stomped all over me and kicked me in the head for good measure. Fever near 104. What I can see thru my puffy eyes have me a much needed laugh. If this thing kills me at least I’ll have a smile on my face.

  29. I had my first Pfizer covid vaccine a week ago and within 45 minutes my entire left side went numb, but it gradually went away in a few hours, but it’s been coming and going since then, also by evening I had a major sciatica attack for no good reason that lasted all week, and then at the end of a week my very minor heart arrhythmia that hasn’t bothered me in years started acting up whenever I was standing or walking around my apartment and I had to go to the ER to have it checked out. I am SO NOT looking forward to what my body has planned for after the second covid vaccine shot, but it is SO worth it if I don’t get the virus. (Although the trip to the ER may have raised my chances of getting the virus after I’ve spent an entire year hiding out at home and being super careful about avoiding it.) Autoimmune issues are no joke!!! This post of videos really helped me cheer up, thank you Jenny for always giving us something to look forward to and someone to commiserate with. You’re a special human being.

  30. The burrito killed me. I laughed so hard tears and a honking sound emerged from my body. Just typing this is making laugh again. Husband thinks I’m nuts.

  31. The upside down cat and the random songs! Took my mind off from the next rotten meeting I am supposed to have and by all means I want to hide under my pillow and don’t show Up.

  34. Watching these, you make me want to open an Instagram account. I don’t know if you’ve seen this guy, but I think he is worth a peak: Hood Nature. Someone on Twitter had one of his videos linked 😂😂😂

  36. I started an Instagram account because of you and sharing these super funny videos! Thank you! Glad you’re better and back. <3

  38. I needed this sooo much! So glad you’re here to medicate me with internet vids! Wish I had remembered to watch these at the start of this ridiculously heavy depression over a week ago. You make re-entering the world-even if it is just the virtual one for now-a tiny bit less hard. 💖

  41. The turning texting drama into songs has been living in my head for a couple days now. I freaking die laughing every time. 🎶

  43. I had my second shot yesterday and I felt so cruddy, I took my iPad into the bathtub and pulled this up. Now I’m hysterical and I refuse to unlock the door so they can come in and see what the hell is the matter with me
