July 8- Savor the Comic, Unplug the Drama (SCUD) Day
Today is Savor the Comic, Unplug the Drama (SCUD), started by the SCUD Club, which publishes a bi-weekly newsletter with resources for, and information about, living and working with more humor and laughter, and spending less time in the Drama Zone. The SCUD Club wants people to lighten up and loosen up their workplaces and their lives. It’s good for you too. There is conclusive evidence that mirthful laughter makes us healthier.
So how to savor the comic? Here are some ideas:
• laughing out loud at the funny cards in a greeting card shop
• calling a friend to share a funny story
• getting naked, looking in the mirror and laughing
• buying a “laugh-box” in a joke shop and turning it on at work or at home
• showing your baby pictures to someone who’s never seen them
• thinking up your own way to get someone else to laugh with you
• watching a funny movie
• sharing a joke
• just laughing for no apparent reason at all
