100 things that make me happy.

Jan 28, 2010 14:33

At the risk of sounding sappy, here are things that make me happy.

I think that everyone has certain things that make them unconditionally happy. Because it is a stressful and dismal day, I'm updating my list of some of the things that work for me. It's good to be happy.

( What makes Seanan happy? Well, among other things, people using cut-tags for long entries makes Seanan happy. If you want to know what else works for her, click here. )

Not all the Pearl Arts; hers might be safe.

I'm a Utrecht girl. This is still sad news. :(

I love that you love the Black Death.

It makes me a very happy girl.

I hope you eventually got the pumpkin spice candle I sent you; it was a little while ago but I've had problems with a couple of things not making it to their destination :-(

seanan_mcguire February 1 2010, 16:30:43 UTC

I did!

It makes the world smell like wonderful.

That's a wonderful list. Some but not all of the things that make me happy include, in no particular order:

The Internet
The first few notes of "Le Jazz Hot" from Victor, Victoria. The rest of the number is also nifty, but that first little run of notes gives me shivers every time I hear it.
"Classical Gas"
Mannheim Steamroller
Pictures of cats. Actual cats, too, but I have to be careful of them because I'm moderately allergic, and breaking out in hives does not make me happy.
"Rhapsody in Blue"
My friends, many of whom live in the Internet
Really good hamburgers
Chocolate
Dale
Air travel -- my three favorite bits are takeoff, landing, and turbulence. Yes, I like turbulence. My least favorite bit is security theatre (tm Bruce Schneier).
Amusement park rides and state fair rides
Fair(e) Food -- including but not limited to funnel cake, Navajo Tacos, giant turkey legs, and Stuff Onna Stick
The existence of Patrick Stewart
Decaf coffee
Decaf diet cola. Yes, I know -- if I don't want the sugar or the caffeine, why don't I just drink ( ... )

You are not the only one to enjoy Pointless Pepsi, so take heart. :)

You reminded me of my love for 'Rhapsody in Blue' and for that slice of happy, I thank you!

Excellent list!
