five things to be happy about this week

1. Spring starts in just 70 days!

2. This "Sound of Music" inspired flash mob will make you deliriously happy! (It's worth the ad.)  And yes, watch this at work and you will have a happy little crowd around your desk. 

3. Songza, the free (and 100% ad free) music service provides the perfect acoustic background for any moment of your day. Choose a moment (like working at your desk) and Songza will suggest several stations. Right now I'm listening to Classic Rock Summer.  Playlists are compiled by DJ's, musicians and musicologists. This will change the way you listen to and discover new music. 

4. Downton Abbey is back. Amen.

5. "Zero Dark Thirty" the latest film from Academy Award Winning Director Kathryn Bigelow is brilliant and it opens Friday.
