So....has anyone had anything *good* happen to them lately?

TWINS! little baby ones

(okay they're not mine but I get to snuggle 'em a lot!)

Now that's more like it! Keep the good stuff coming!

I have finally started working out on a regular basis, and find I have more energy, which is much needed and appreciated. I also find I might actually have a tricep muscle (which I thought had become jello due to years of disuse) and that's kinda cool.

Aimee, hit him where it hurts - sell something of his to pay for new keys.

Make it something really good, and get those shoes for your IT gal.

vw, I thpppppbt in the general direction of the triage nurse and the doctor who is not calling you back. ~ma for betterness.

Good things? I am drinking sugar free hot chocolate.

My boss just brought me cheese fries. That is a good thing.

Ummm... this morning I had a blood draw, and I neither cried nor punched anyone nor lurched up out of my chair and fled out the door (all of which I have done in the past). Also, on Saturday I found an ungodly gorgeous vintage dress. Not in the least a sexy dress, but cuter than a boxful of buttons, fits me like a slightly roomy glove (i.e., I can not only wear it, I can wear it and go out and eat an actual meal without splitting a seam), fits over my extra-big crinolines perfectly, and only $34.

Also, Jess has cute hair today, Fay's haircut rocks, ita has a 3-day migraine-smiting success record, and hot cocoa is happening somewhere in Minnesota. All of which make me very very happy, though truthfully I really just want to go home and pet my new dress.

eta: Forgot to mention the orgasm and the cheese fries -- still not as good as the dress, but mighty delightful.

I found a wee froggie inside my car door frame yesterday. It was adorable, and I set it free in the shrubby area next to the parking lot--not too far from a swamp. I doubt it would have enjoyed my office complex quite as much.

I got new black flats on super-reduced sale for $6 yesterday.

I got a short spring haircut on my lunch hour today.

I found a cool job to apply for in the city that I wanted to live in when I was 12. (Traverse City, MI--hey, at 12 I had no idea that I could move to New York or Geneva.)

My manager just lent me My Neighboro Totoro.

Wait, there was an orgasm? How'd I miss that?

ETA: I'm being purred at by Daniel's cat, Harvey. This is also good. It will be even better if he keeps purring after I take my dish into the kitchen.

Gooooooood afternoon. I'm tired and boy do I want a nap, which of course means my day isn't over until 9 or 10. But I've accomplished a lot today:

• made it to work before my boss did
• had my oil changed
• acquired materials needed for presentation
• tutored my elementary school kid
• ordered catering for tomorrow's event

and probably some other stuff. Sadly there is still much to do:

• actually print and finish presentation materials
• have coffee with friend
• work out with friend
• attend mini-movie fest for women's history month
• attend hispanic outreach project monthly meeting
• do ALL THE HOMEWORK EVER

and double sadly, my boss is still being an uncommunicative jerk. But you know what? Sixty-nine days.

(And yes, I totally spelled that as "sexty" first.)

These are so hot! I totally need them for my walls at home.
