Shiny, sunny meadow spot - wishful thinking in gloomy, chilly January weather, when the sunlight is a rarity and grey drizzle, the norm.
But, fret not! Cheer is on the way! In case you have missed the 'Internet phenomenon' that is flamboyant musician Chris Dane Owens with his glittery green guitar and his lavishly cheesy music video, Shine:
If you are now scratching your head in bewilderment (or feel the need to scour your eyeballs), there is help. Hilarious translation of the jump-cut video storyline is provided over on tor.com. Or you can read the 'official' description by the ivory-maned artist here. (which is almost a let down after the first, brilliant explanation).
Shine on, people!

ROFL -- both explanations of the video are awesome!
Gloomy, chilly January...you should come down and visit Texas sometime. :) Today was bright and cheerful with blue, blue skies. No clouds once the fog burned off this morning. Just a bit of ice here and there in those ever dark shaded areas untouched by sun.
