Happy Friendship Day!

Seriously, I am not making this up. Today is actually International Friendship Day. And of course I live for any reason to make cake for myself and listen to music. I hope you guys are out there celebrating -- if you don't have any friends, that's okay, though. It's probably your fault (probably shouldn't have said that, huh, smart guy?), but oh well. You can pretend, by listening to these (fairly) happy friend songs. Or you can make friends with Jack Daniels and forget about it (if that's the case, you'll probably appreciate THIS song more than most). That works too. Er. Oh, and in the interest of being friendly, please support these artists.
