Hereβs another edition of the Thursday Evening Post. π€
I recently finished painting my third (and final) Onna-Bugeisha (female samurai)! π
I wanted to paint her in spring colors and was inspired by the color scheme on a beautiful silk scarf that one of my students had given me. π©·
What have you been doing to get into the spirit of the spring season? π·
Life is like a bunch of waves. π

Sometimes it is very intense, and other times it’s very peaceful.
I had recently heard someone say that you can’t control anything except how kind you are to yourself. β€οΈ
One way to be kind to yourself is to make yourself laugh! π
That’s why I chose “Bad Stuff Happens in the Bathroom” from season 06, episode 19 “Glued, Where’s My Bob?” of Bob’s Burgers. The song is in response to Bob Belcher being unable to remove himself from the toilet seat on a very important day! π€£Check it out:
Lyrics:
Everything’s gonna be okay, everything’s gonna be okay
Bad stuff happens in the bathroom
I’m just glad that it happens in a vacuum
Can’t let them see me with my pants down
Coasters Magazine is gonna be my big chance now
But I’ll be outta here in no time
I’ll be doing interviews and feeling just fine
Today is gonna be a great day
I’ll do Coasters magazine and blow everyone away
Let’s be clear, I did absolutely nothing wrong
I’m not to blame, it’s not my fault
This is just to say
If Gene had pooped like every day, this would’ve all just blown away
But he’ll be outta there in no time
No one’s gonna blame me, I’ll be doing just fine
Today is gonna be a great day
If Teddy can’t unstick my dad, I’ll find another way
Hey, where’s Bob? I wanna tell him I can smell him from across the street
Yeah, Linda, where is Bob? I gotta do his hair for the big interview
Interview? What interview?
Bob’s gotta big magazine interview
What, are they writing an article on guy’s with moustaches you wanna punch? Zoom!
I say zoom now, you like it?
Yeah, it’s okay
Bad stuff happens in the bathroom (let’s be clear)
I’m just glad that it happens in a vacuum (I did absolutely nothing wrong, I’m not to blame, it’s not my fault)
Can’t let them see me with my pants down (this is just to say)
Coasters Magazine is gonna be my chance now (if Gene had pooped like everyday, this would’ve all just blown away)
But I’ll be outta here in no time (but he’ll be out of there in no time)
I’ll be doing interviews and feeling just fine (no one’s gonna blame me, I’ll be doing just fine)
Today is gonna be a great day (great day)
I’ll do Coasters Magazine and blow everyone away (if Teddy can’t unstick my dad, I’ll find another way)
What do you think of the song?
This song and episode never fail to make me laugh! π€£
I hope none of you can relate to Bob’s conundrum! That would be a tough day! π
May you watch or listen to something today that brings you healing laughter! π
May you be well! π
