THIS IS A SHOUTING THREAD ABOUT GOOD THINGS! →[More:]

I WANT TO COMPLAIN BUT I'M TRYING TO BE POSITIVE! THIS IS GOOD! TONIGHT I WILL GET/MAKE CARDS FOR METACHAZENS! THIS WILL BE FUN! AT LUNCH I WILL GO TO THE STORE TO BUY THINGS FOR THE GLIDERS AND TO SMILE AT THE HOT CHECKOUT CLERK!

I AM GOING ON A CRUISE IN ONLY 10 SHORT MONTHS!

THIS IS MY LAST FULL WEEK OF WORK IN THE YEAR 2006!

I HAVE FINALLY TRAINED MY DOG TO STOP BARKING (WHENEVER SHE BARKS, I USE MY BALLOON ANIMAL PUMP TO BLOW AIR AT HER- IT SHUTS HER RIGHT UP)!

I HAD A CRABBY CLIENT THIS MORNING, BUT MY BOSS BACKED ME UP!

I SPENT SATURDAY AFTERNOON BABY SITTING MY 16-MONTH-OLD NIECE. WE WENT TO THE PARK WHERE WE PLAYED FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS IN THE KIDS' PLAYGROUND AND SHE WALKED UP TO LOTS OF PUSHCHAIRS, POINTED AT THEM AND SAID "IT'S A BABY". SHE ALSO SPLASHED IN LOADS OF PUDDLES, SAID "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" AS SHE RAN DOWN A HILL AND HAS LEARNT "OH NO" WHEN SOMETHING GOES WRONG. THIS IS VERY CUTE.

THERE WAS ALSO SOME VERY, VERY SUCKY THINGS THAT HAPPENED OVER THE WEEKEND, BUT THIS IS NOT THE THREAD FOR THOSE.

IT LOOKS LIKE I WILL BE GETTING A CLEANING PERSON. I'M YELLING SOFTLY BECAUSE I'M EXCITED, BUT A BIT EMBARASSED. I FEEL LIKE A FREAKIN' LAZY ASS, BUT IT'S ONLY GOING TO BE ONCE OR TWICE A MONTH TO DO A REAL PROFESSIONAL THOROUGH SCRUBBING. THAT'S NOT TOO AWFUL, RIGHT?

YOU'RE HAVING A BABY! YOU DESERVE A CLEANING WOMAN

I THINK I HAVE WORKED THROUGH AND PAST SOMETHING I'VE BEEN TRYING TO WORK THROUGH AND PAST! IN ADDITION TO BEING A RELIEF, THIS ALSO IS A STRONG RECOMMENDATION FOR TALKING CRAZILY TO ONESELF, AND THAT GIVES ME FAITH IN THE BENEFIT OF MEASURED CRAZINESS!

ALSO, I AM ABOUT TO JOIN A GYM!

ALSO, I WILL LIKEWISE NOT POST SUCKY, SUCKY WEEKEND THINGS!

I AM PAST DEADLINE ON TWO MAJOR PROJECTS, AND RIGHT NOW I AM PROCRASTINATING AGAIN LOOKING AT BUNNIES BUT I AM NOT COMPLAINING BECAUSE I AM NOT IN DEBT AND AM EMPLOYED UNLIKE MY DEPRESSED PARTNER.

(That was a sad attempt to be positive.)

posted by typewriter 04 December | 16:58

I GOT ABSOLUTELY NOTHING EXCEPT THAT IT SNOWED HERE TODAY AND I GOT TO HANG OUT AT THE STATION AND LISTEN TO RAY LAMONTAGNE'S "BE HERE NOW" FROM TIL THE SUN GOES BLACK WHILE IT DID SO. (THE SNOW, SNOWING - THAT IS, NOT THE SUN GOING BLACK, I MEAN).

LIKEWISE, I WILL NOT GET SUCKY IN THIS THREAD.

P.S. THE GUY I JUST WAS TEMPING FOR HAS A SHEPBEAGLE THAT LOVED ME WHILE I WAS THERE. MUCH EYE CONTACT AND DOG SCHMOOPINESS THIS MORNING.

My sad attempt. I wasn't commenting on dg's.

I MOVED IN WITH MY GIRLFRIEND THIS WEEKEND, WHICH MAKES ME REALLY AMAZINGLY HAPPY. ALSO, WE'RE PLANNING OUR TRIP TO EDINBURGH FOR NEW YEARS, WHICH IS ALWAYS FUN, AND FOUND A VERY VERY CHEAP PLACE TO STAY!

posted by Inkoate 04 December | 17:33

I WOKE UP TO SNOW TODAY!

MY PROFESSOR JUST EXTENDED THE DEADLINE FOR OUR TEAM PROJECT! AND I JUST FOUND MY GUIDING STATEMENT FOR THE PAPER DUE THIS WEEK! AND THE PAPER DUE NEXT WEEK IS, IN FACT, DUE THE WEEK AFTER! AND THIS IS ALL BETTER THAN GOOD!

A GOOD FRIEND OF MY PARTNER'S SENT ME AN EMAIL INCLUDING THE COMPLIMENT "HEY, YOU'RE ALL RIGHT FOR A SKIRT."

WEDNESDAY IS THE ANNIVERSARY OF A SAD EVENT, BUT I'M OKAY! SO OKAY THAT MY PROF, WHO HAS BEEN A GOOD FRIEND TO ME FOR SEVERAL YEARS, REMARKED UPON IT!

TOMORROW NIGHT, WE HAVE DINNER WITH MY PARTNER'S PARENTS, WHO ARE VERY SWEET, AND THE NEXT NIGHT WE HAVE DINNER WITH MY MOTHER, THEN A CHRISTMAS PARTY WITH HIS COWORKERS, WHO ARE UNREPROACHABLY COOL, YET STILL FRIENDLY AND FUN AND FUNNY!

ALL OF A SUDDEN TODAY, I VEERED INTO A SALON AND GOT THE HAIRCUT I'VE BEEN PUTTING OFF FOR WEEKS! I FEEL PRETTY!

I GOT A NEW LOVER BOY AND I'VE BEEN PLAYING WITH IT ALL DAY. I CALL IT ARGONAUT. IT'S A MAC G5. I WILL NEVER GO BACK. TO ANYTHING!

I'M GOING BOWLING WITH A GOOD FRIEND TONIGHT, AS A WARMUP FOR LEAGUE NIGHT TOMORROW, AND HE'S GONNA BUY HIMSELF A NEW BALL, WHICH IS ALWAYS A LOT OF FUN!

posted by muddgirl 04 December | 18:26

I WENT TO PHILLY ON SATURDAY AND HANSI KÜRSCH EXHORTED ME TO SCREAM, A LOT, AND I DID. I NEARLY EXPLODED FROM HAPPINESS. AFTERWARDS I ATE AT STEAKS AT GENO'S TILL I WAS MORE LITERALLY BURSTING.

I AM PROCRASTINATING ON WRITING A PAPER, BUT, HAPPILY, I AM MANAGING TO GET OTHER SCHOOLWORK DONE AS MY PROCRASTINATORY ACTIVITY, SO I STILL FEEL PRODUCTIVE!

THERE WERE WARM JALAPENO POPPERS AND HOT SPICED WINE WAITING FOR ME WHEN I GOT HOME!
