Too Bad I Threw Out My Bong I am lamenting the loss of my bong. I haven't thought about my bong in years but after this past gun-shot laden anxiety filled week, I wish she were here. I wonder where she is now, Miss Bong-ette, my Bong-ita, that special Bong-ini. What is she doing? Is she in a landfill? Is she happy? Does she miss me? I miss her. After a week of shootings (13 shots fired down the street from my house), an armed robbery one block away and a murder 10 blocks over, I am a bit on edge. Ok, I'm scared to death.

Until 3:17 this afternoon, I would not have thought about using a Whoopi Cushion to introduce the basics of yogic deep breathing techniques but God Bless me, Divine Inspiration slapped me upside the head yet again. Playfulness, stress relief AND a plastic fart simulation device. PRICELESS! (No doubt my parents are insanely proud right now)  Read more >

Giggle Gone? Does your Giggle need a bailout? How about a stimulus plan? Has your Giggle packed up and gone on permanent vacation? I am embarrassed to admit I lost my Giggle this past week. My smile, positive attitude and the bounce and shimmy in my step dried up and died. Like millions of Americans, the state of our national economic and political affairs has me scared, ok, terrified.

About Me: 

Christa Scalies, Founder of Giggle OnYo. How U doin’? My name is Christa Scalies (ryhmes with police), Chief Inspiration Officer & Founder of Giggle On. I love encouraging people (including myself) to stress less and laugh more.

Giggle On!® is a call to action to embrace joyful mojo and laugh with wild abandon regardless of how many lemons, deaths, diseases and disappointments life throws your way.

This site began as a way for me to share my personal story of depression, grief and transformation after my friend Jim Thompson’s suicide. Some label me as a “survivor of suicide” and in many ways, I am…but I prefer to call myself a thriver.

Since starting the site in the spring of 2008, I lost another friend to suicide, Jim Sims. Jim Sims introduced me to the  phrase, Get Your Giggle On, which simply means: Laugh & have fun!

My mantra for living life is: Don’t Give Up! Giggle On! This is a part anti-suicide/perseverance message mixed with my laughter message. On bad days, this mantra motivates me to stay positive.

Count your nights by stars, not shadows; count your life with smiles, not tears. ~ Italian proverb
