Happy Tuesday, dear readers! It has been a gloomy few days in the Bay Area, but no rain, so I think we definitely need some fun. Today I have a few links to things that I think will give you a nice break during your work day.

Yes, it sounds crazy, but just try not to smile while watching CGI Giraffes dive into a pool. It is wonderful and relaxing.

Also, as we inch closer to summertime, at least around here, I feel the itch to travel. Since I can’t do that right now, I have to instead get my fix by looking at these amazing botanical mazes. They’re pretty fantastic.

Also, I had to share the last Fashionable Friday post from The Well-Appointed Desk: Fast and Furious edition. This is especially for my friend, Hanna, and one of our biology faculty members on campus who happens to share my enjoyment of the Fast and Furious movies.

While not strictly as fun as CGI giraffes, I had to share this short article on Lifehacker about saying no to yourself. So important to remember not to fill our time with more stuff just because we are rocking at time management. I totally have to remember this and was happy to see an article on the topic.

I hope you have a lovely week, dear readers. I’ll be back soon with more news and notes. Allons-y!
