Happy happy happy Sunday

I'm just having a super time. We had a great night out, last night, at the MUSC Gay-Straight Alliance Spring Social. Then, this morning, we went to brunch at Vickerys with lovely chums, bloody Marys by the gallon and no end of yummers food. It's 75 degrees outside and if there's a cloud in the sky, then I must have missed it. In summary then, things couldn't be peachier.

With that in mind, I decided to blog digitally bookmark my happy sunny mood by posting a happy sunny song from youtube on the Pony Club. The first thing I thought of was Sunday Morning by Margo Guryan. I came across this song a year or so ago, when my mate Ashley set it as the music on her myspace page. I loved it, so tracked it down on itunes almost immediately. It's a trippy sixties feel-good tune, somewhere in the Lou Reed - Nick Drake - Dusty Springfield region of warm cheese fuzziness. You know - it was Sunday, I was feeling super and shiny, so I thought it was fitting.

However, as soon as I typed her name into the youtube search, my negative inner narrative piped up. "There won't be a Margo Guryan video on youtube, and anyway if there is one, it won't be Sunday Morning, and even if it does come up with Sunday Morning, it'll just be the song used as a soundtrack for some crap home video."

Well, my pessimistic side was half right. It is used as the soundtrack for a home video, but it's a realy cool home video. The sort of home video that makes you wonder why you don't have chiuaua's and live in LA, too. Well, alright. I don't think I really want to live in LA - and having Stewie next door works just fine for me - but it really is a lovely little video, and the music fits perfectly. This is the stuff youtube was made for, and of course, also, that which is so lacking most of the time.
Enough yacking. Happy Sunday and here it is:
