Because I need to think about happier things today:

  1. Just sent off a payment request to bring one of my higher-limit credit cards down to a $0 balance. One card down, four to go.
  2. My dress from eShakti showed up today, and my only complaint so far is that "below the knee" turned out to be "at the knee", which is kind of an awkward length for me.
  3. I'm going to see the Shakespeare Theatre Company's "Henry V" with [livejournal.com profile] chadu tomorrow afternoon, and going to dinner at M&S Grill with [livejournal.com profile] nminusone in the evening.
  4. It's not snowing, the ice on the back of the house is melting, and it sounds like tomorrow's chance of snow won't be a replay of Snowmageddon.
  5. It is not going to take a shovel and an hour to leave my house and/or move my car today.

Despite what it might've sounded like yesterday, I was only slightly mopey and mostly just rooting around in my brain for the hell of it. Today though, I'm actually in a pretty damn good mood, and I think I should post more about when I'm happy to balance out the whinging.

Five Ten (!) Happy Things:

  1. I just blew through a gift card at Borders and got the new Warren Zevon book "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead: The Dirty Life and Times of Warren Zevon", "The Tao of Pooh", and a copy of "Craft:" magazine.

  2. Fabulous, laid-back, comfy date last night.

  3. My saving throw against burgers and fries was successful, and I came back with a salad and some soup and an apple. And a soy green tea latte. Yay for eating less crap today.

  4. There's a tubby dachshund in my office offering to help me finish off the soup.

  5. I'm wearing a fitted tshirt with a glow-in-the-dark bat on it (see icon), and despite not doing anything to my hair other than pull it back into a ponytail and wearing no makeup, I feel awfully damn cute today.

  6. Flirting with someone you've been mildly crushed out on who flirts back.

  7. Places like Watercourse Way exist, even if there's not one close enough to be useful.

  8. Dental records *snerk*

  9. Setting up Subversion and getting my files into it has been by far the easiest part of this whole @#$% project, and I suspect will save my butt at least once.

  10. My partners, who put up with me for god-only-knows what reason.


And bonus happy thing:

  1. Y'all. *mwah*!

Anyone else wanting in on the CD swap? Go clicky over there if so. Right now we've got 15 participants, so I'm thinking three groups of five people each. I'll confirm that this weekend and let everyone know for sure.

To swipe an idea from [livejournal.com profile] geekjul, five happy things for today:

  1. It's pajama day, so I'm in my office wearing Hello Kitty PJs, sock monkey slippers, and a robe.
  2. BSG Season 2 on tap for this evening.
  3. Springwater Fiber Workshop Super Bowl sale. I'm on restriction until I clear out some of my stash, sadly.
  4. I have incredibly hot new shoes, which I'd been lusting after for months and I randomly happened to catch on sale for half off, snagging one of the last pairs in my size. (Also, we have strange conversations in my house. )
  5. Cute Organizer, which I snagged from Giveaway of the Day and is helping me keep my to do list up to date and in front of my face.

Bonus happy things: we had more ice melt left from last year than I thought we did, and while the sidewalk was slippery, there was no ice on my car and so the expected 20 minutes of chipping ice off the windows never materialized.

I'm wanting to use the rename token I bought last year, but everything I've come up with is taken. Stumped.
