It’s minus 3 degrees, a quick peek out of my window shows me that my car resembles a rather formidable ice box, my heating has been on constant for the past three days… and it’s still cold! Needless to say, yet again I’m writing this buried beneath a blanket with Rocky the dog.
This week’s Happy Monday comes with a rather personal disclosure (or at least it’s a disclosure for those of you who don’t know me).
Sigh… I’m obsessed with Angela Lansbury.
There I said it.
It started with Bedknobs and Broomsticks as a child, before shifting to the genius that was Murder She Wrote when I was in my teens. To this very day, not only do I have the DVD box set of the entire series, but I still avidly watch them when they’re on TV. And, after all these years, I still know all the words of Substitutiary Locomotion… *looks embarrassed*
A few years ago, I started hallucinating due to a fever. I ended up dictating a letter to Dame Lansbury, thanking her for all the joy she’d brought to my life.
She even infiltrated my work life. My workmate and I would greet each other with “Jessica Fletcher knowing-nods” (in deference to J.B.’s disappointed-yet-knowledgeable head-bobbing when a murderer confessed).
Hmmmm…
Happy Monday #41
It therefore shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that this week’s Happy Monday is all about the fantastic Lansbury:
Angela Lansbury Has The Perfect Reaction For Everything That Will Happen To You Today
Yes she will!
Let in on a work secret?
I won’t spoil the rest for you, but they’re definitely worth checking out!
Needless to say, the original source (the Lansbury Reactions Twitter Account), is absolutely genius 🙂
Before I go…
If you’ve ever watched Murder She Wrote, then you’ll know it always ended with a denouement. It would therefore be remiss of me to end this post without one too!
So what can Dame Lansbury and this post add to our work week?
In my mind it’s three things:
1. Keep an eye on those reactions
2. You too can be a legend.
3. If you ever get invited to Cabot Cove, politely decline… you’ll either get murdered or accused of it.
Have an awesome week! Now, go be the legend in your workplace!
