    Finding a duplicate of the 14k vintage Longines watch I own sell on eBay for a four digit bid.

    (mine is in nicer shape, btw)

    The comfort of a somewhat shabby but wonderfully broken-in couch, with a puppy and your feet and a book in your hands on a rainy day. This is best experienced when one is also wearing a Snuggie. :love:

    Yeah those snuggies are a great invention. Every time I see those infomercials, I wanna buy one. What was the number again, 1-800-snuggle-up?

    Hahaha...And who woulda thought, a blanket with arms! LOL

    Late night fog drifting across an orange tinted street, with not the sound of cars or people as I ride through on my bike.

    My best friend when she makes me literally LOL. She's such a serious person that any humor she tries is automatically twice as funny as it would be normally. Similarly, when I manage to make that same friend laugh.

    Hell, she in general always puts another sun in the sky. :rolleyes:

    Emily, if that was directed at me (I'm assuming it was), I can't right now. She used to live near me, but her family has since moved to Arizona.

    But this doesn't belong in a happiness thread. :p

    Things that make me happy: fresh air, sunny weather, good books, herbal tea, warm bath, fluffy cats))) Cats seem to be popular 'happy makers')

    OMG...I was just complaining about my rehearsal schedule and how tired I am. Jay (the music director) insisted on getting me a Starbucks to help keep me awake. He even insisted on paying!

    Watching all my recorded shows after a long day at school. I'm a total TV junkie, so I'll have CSI Miami, The Tonight Show, Community, The Biggest Loser, The Office, The Soup and Grey's Anatomy. And in January American Idol comes back!! Yay!! :D
