For eight days you have to post something that made you happy that day. Tag eight people to do the same.
I'm not tagging anyone, so do it if you feel so inclined. Or don't, see if I care! ;P
1. Remembering to call my bro on his birthday and hearing it was a better day for him than the day before.
2. Talking to Brandy again on Facebook. 2 MORE DAYS!
3. Totally winging it on dinner and pulling off quite a yummy one with just stuff we had on hand, despite me desperately needing to go to the grocery (was pan seared Orange Roughy fillets with a Middle Eastern sort of spice rub and a grain/pasta mixture of Israli couscous, red quinoa, split baby chickpeas and tricolor orzo with similar spices as the fish).
4. Watching Bender's Game. I personally think it was better than Bender's Big Score and I haven't seen Beast with a Billion Backs yet. Could have been because of all the geeky parodies, though. Fry: "What's that, a hobbit?" Bender: "No, that's a hobo and a rabbit, but they're making a hobbit."
5. Catching Sunflower before she got through the hole she dug under the gate. Totally looked like Winnie the Pooh or something, with her halfway out of the hole. Luckily she was just a little muddy and I was able to let her dry off in the laundry room and brush it out. The other day when she actually got out, she ran to the nearby horse pasture and rolled around in manure. That wasn't so easily gotten rid of. Even though I was pissed at the time, thinking back on the scene and watching her make an obvious decision about whether to try to make a break for it even though she was caught was really funny. I'm really glad she didn't get out because I always worry about her getting hit by a car or something (I've found her in a neighborhood across Highway 100 before). And the fact that I didn't wind up having to give her another bath was good, since that's no easy task.
6. Teaching Jonah to sing "Santa Claus is coming to town". About all he can manage is to melodically say, "Santa, town", but he gets the point across.
7. Dreaming about costumes for the second time in a week (figures since I had sworn off trying to work on any until the first of the year).
