Today I:
- handled a substantial interpersonal disappointment with what I consider to be comparative grace.
- believed I had missed my extension deadline to file my taxes, but rather than resigning myself to self-punishment and despair, went ahead and finally filed them anyway, after which I realized that I had in fact squeaked by the deadline, which was tomorrow.
- went to a callback for a comedy, and actually did my own thing rather than trying to out-funny my fellow auditioners, for which efforts I was rewarded with sincere praise from one of my most respected colleagues.
- handled a complicated and high-stakes Warcraft loot situation (now don't laugh) with aplomb, passing a marvelous item that I deeply desired and to which I was technically entitled to a raid-mate for whom it would be a much more dramatic upgrade.
- spent comfortable time watching Comedy Central over wine with an until-recently-neglected friend.
- finished an insightful book on philosophy that I've been limping through since Christmas.
- capped it all off by patting myself on the back for it all in LJ. =)
