so what are some of the things that make you happy? sometimes for me, it doesn't take much to make me happy.  8)

...When my daughter Julie wants to talk and share what's going on in her life with me.  it doesn't happen too often, but when she opens up, I'm all ears and attentive and loving it.

...hot fudge sundaes

...when I hear people complimenting my skills and abilities at playing softball

...hearing a good tune played unexpectly on the radio.

seeing certain members online

having a good hair day  8)

...having a good laugh online

hearing good news.

...seeing my wife smile

when i walk in the house and Bode looks up from a nap on the sofa and her tail starts wagging....

...money. I'm not gonna lie.

...my family, even when they're acting like utter dorks.

...alcohol usually does the trick. :D

when I have the house to myself for an afternoon of movies or lazing around.

I may be the afternoon for you, I have the whole morning and afternoon.

I may be the afternoon for you, I have the whole morning and afternoon.


I have most of today, but there is an emergency meeting at work and I have to go in for an hour.
yawn.

but a movie in the morning and playing with the dog is good for a rainky day.

Emergency meeting, going in for it, I hope you get paid for it. More money = makes you happy?

When Vaughn is well behaved (which isn't too often, lately)

When people tell me the truth (that doesn't happen to often either)

When I talk for hours on the phone, with someone who can laugh with me

When I go thrift shopping and find lots of good deals

When I am thinking about the past

♦ When I hear a song that I haven't heard in years

♦ When my favourite shows come to DVD

♦ Pay Day :D

making a certain someone laugh when laughter seems hard to come by these days. :(

getting my latest netflix in the mail.

snow days.

When I find out the job I am working on that was supposed to be due today has changed to being due Monday so I could take a break from it.

-Carlos

-My cats

-Not wanting for ANYTHING!!!

-Inthe00s

-Spending $$$-especially on coins.  :D ;D ;D

-Going to auctions-and spending $$$.

-My house getting a over-haul (like a new bathroom floor).

Let me guess, it is a space alien who communicates though the light bulb on the lamp by your bed-but only if the moon is in the first quarter phase and if there is a rerun on Bridget Loves Bernie on t.v.


Did I get it right? Huh? Huh? Did I?  ;) :D :D :D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I can tell stuff that makes me happy, but if I discuss politics, I'm in danger of being stoned. :-\\

Listening to music

Relaxing

Beer.  In the words of Ben Franklin, it is the proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

Lyrics.  After weeks, months (and sometimes years) of listening to a track, you're randomly in the sort of mood that lends itself to hearing a confusing line in precisely the right way, and you finally know what that word really was.  (See "Beer".)

...Some caring people here... :)

....beginning to like mornings

....candles....http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh93/adagio_photos/candle01.gif?t=1201964146

Sometimes being stoned is the best way to discuss politics.  http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/01/bandit.gif  :D :D ;D ;D ;D

Not where I was...they were irrational fanatics who didn't even LISTEN to the other side's point of view....geesh...that was no discussion.  It resembled an angry mob.  :-\\ I would be glad to DISCUSS politics with a reasonable open person.

Try our political section. MOST people are reasonable-whether they agree with your position or not. We have had a few unreasonable people and they were banned.

I just might take a peek and see what it's about and if any 'zealots' are around. It's ok to be zealous about something as long as you don't shove it in somebody's face.  :)
