I wrote a post the other day about the importance of keeping a sense of humor through life’s challenges. I wish I took my advice more to heart some days, but it’s definitely a good idea to laugh as much as possible.

With that in mind, I thought I’d periodically post items that give me a good chuckle. We don’t have a lot of time at our house to watch tv, but when we do we like shows like “The Office” where we can escape into a fictional world for a half-hour and laugh at something.

I don’t watch “Saturday Night Live” religiously as too many of the sketches just drag on and aren’t all that funny. But every now and then they’ll hit one right on the mark. Here’s a sketch from last season that my wife and I have watched practically a dozen times. It’s really the performance of Kristen Wiig that carries this one (she’s the one who just loves a good surprise party in this clip). Watch, laugh, and enjoy….
