Stopping in at the mall for some unknown reason, and finding a copy of The Very Persistant Gappers of Frip (which I’ve wanted to buy for quite some time) for one dollar. In perfect condition.
# Walking home on a beautiful, sunny day, with my iPod playing a seemingly random mix which was almost too perfect to have been meant for anyone except me.
# Being surprised by two consecutive +17 degrees Celsius days after getting pounding with a late spring snowstorm on my birthday.
# Having two of my web hosting clients upgrade their accounts and renew for an entire year at the same time: I need the extra money.
# Listening to Ren�e laughing almost uncontrollably watching Who’s Line… in the other room, knowing that she’s had a horrible week and any laughter at all is a good thing.
# Knowing that there’s only seven weeks left of school, and then I can finally get my life back for a few months.
# Finally figuring out a MySQL problem that I’ve been pounding my head against for two days on my own, without having to call my friendly neighbourhood geek.
# Saying, “screw my anti-red meatism”, and eating one of the fucking best Reuben sandwiches ever with absolutely no guilt whatsoever.
# Added: Even better, after expecting that I would owe thousands of dollars by the time I completed my income tax, I was pretty chuffed to discover that I only owed $690. Whew.
What makes for a good day for you?
A good day
Things that plaster a big grin on my face:
# Going out for lunch with a friend and ordering exactly what I was craving all day, even though I didn’t quite what it was I was craving.

Unexpectedly getting lots of work done quickly after days of being lazy, and then realising that I'm actually up to speed with my work despite having spent the preceeding days being, as mentioned, lazy. That makes me happy. I also get a perverse pleasure from spamming LittleGreenFootballs with comments about how perhaps maybe not all Palestinians are terrorists, and getting people to come to my site and slag me off in irrational and stupid ways.
Post a reply to this commentWhat a cool blog.
I like it.
Go see my movie HEY DJ when it comes out.
Check it out on www.imdb.com
Under the title HEY DJ! 'Natch! :)
Post a reply to this commentThe sun shining, my cat curled up on top of my monitor, a nice glass of Prosecco and the knowledge that my animation is improving and I have creative ideas again.
Enjoy your day where ever you are.

man I am with yah on the red meat thing. I gave it up, but I still have to eat it once in a while.So did I really give it up? To bite into a pastrami sandwich n just say fuck it! Thats a wonderful thing for me! For me a good day is just being here to see it! Also having my health, and people who love me. Life is a toss up between suffering and bordom I once heard, but I don't know if that is true.
