About being happy
Since I'm always posting rants, today I feel like saying I'm happy.
Nothing happened in particular, but tonight I'll go to sleep (in a couple of hours, but still...) content and it hasn't happened in a while. It's a good feeling, though. I recommend it. ;)
I guess it's the little things that make people happy. For me, today, it's a bowl of good ramen, someone sharing your dinner smiling all the time and finishing half of your sentences; it's a birthday party 300 km from home, it's sleeping 4 hours and feeling nauseous but knowing it was all worth the fun; it's reading a bit of unpublished fic a friend sends you unawares that is funny and sweet and romantic and crazy maybe; it's "Through the Looking-Glass" and all the words I don't understand, and the feeling of having learnt something new after so many years; it's my mother watching "Harper's Island" and chatting about how cute the fisherman is and me refusing to tell her how it all ends and who the murderer is. All this and certainly so much else I can't remember now, 'cause I'm an idiot, but...
Well, today is a good day, in spite of everything else. Just thought I'd say it, so that I'll remember.
