One of our new division heads just wrote that our floor is either the most festive or most insane group of people he's worked with. And we've only had one division party so far this month.
... I know what I'm going with.
Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
We haven't done this in a while, and it seems needed: What is the last thing that made you smile unexpectedly?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
The boxer I am dogsitting (Craig) who is currently engaging in such dramatics because the cat is sitting on the end of the couch that he thinks he would like to sit on.
As with Darby when the cat starts eating her food, this is all focus on getting me to do something about it. Apparently neither one of them has the stones to take it up with her directly.
(In about a minute it'll get annoying, but for now it's making me laugh.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Things have been kinda' slow at work lately, so I was getting a little nervous about my long-term prospects here. But I just found out 10 minutes ago that a client of ours is getting a new accounting system which will mean a whole bunch of work for us for years. (Plus learning new stuff, which is always good for programmers.)
So I smiled unexpectedly 10 minutes ago. Still smiling.

Nice, Tommy!

I've been saving money in case of unemployment, but now that's less of a concern. Also, I just got my x-mas bonus yesterday. In conclusion, hookers and blow.
ION, Where the Wilde Things Are
And when he came to the place where the wilde things are they roared witticisms and gnashed their terrible quips. Lucy Knisley imagines a journey to where the Oscar Wilde things are. Max appears dissatisfied with it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The last thing that made me smile was the (late, I know) discovery that Benedict Cumberpatch is playing TWO characters in The Hobbit instead of just the one I knew about.

Now I'm smiling even more.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Seeing a hummingbird at my window feeder this morning. The feeder is close to the window and clear, so sometimes I can see hummingbird tongue lapping up nectar.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ryan was sick today. Spent much of the afternoon vomiting. Tonight, after he started running a fever, we gave him some paracetamol, which he was able to keep down. Anyway, the thing that made me smile was when he then asked if we might also have some hiccup medicine. He's now sacked out on his kiddie-sized fold-out sofa. IT IS ADORABLE.
