Well, I'm a straight shooter. I think my record's pretty clear on that.

Ok. I was feeling pissed off and annoyed first thing this morning. But now not so much. So in this new spirit of relaxedness, I'm not gonna dwell on the things that are getting me down and instead on the good things in life. For otherwise I will start to feel down again and that would be bad.
I just had a really good cup of coffee. This may be in part the reason for my better mood. There's nothing like a bit of chemical stimulation on the brain to make the whole world seem better. This is exactly the reason why I don't drink coffee so much anymore - so that when I need a bit of a caffeine buzz, I can get it! Later if I'm feeling down again, I will turn to chocolate and the happy endorphines that that releases into my brain.
In other good news, I had a well good evening yesterday down at the dog races with some of my friends. I've never been before and it was a lot of fun. It didn't go especially well for me on the betting front, it wasn't until the penultimate race that I actually won anything! I reckon I lost £7.50 and won £2.30, so I guess that's only a net loss of £5, which isn't too bad! Greyhounds are kinda cute, even if they are a bit skinny for my liking - I nearly ended up adopting a retired racer, but then I thought my mother might have a fit!
My friend Vicky drove us up there, and on the way back, even bought us ice cream. She's an awesome friend! LOL
And another thing making me happy (it's a small thing, but any small contribution is good at the moment) is the fact that I have changed my desktop on my work PC to a nice photo I took in Australia. There's blue skies and a beach, and it makes me smile every time I see it. And that is good. I need to get hold of the rest of my photos from Holly now that she is back in the country. I'm gonna see her Saturday, so hopefully I can get them then.
I guess that's it in the good news section. I have actual work to do in the office today, so I'm gonna spend my day doing stuff, which is always nice. Boredom gets me down.
