The Happiness Thread

This is unrelated to your post, instead, your location "ProcrastiNation" made me giggle.

 

I got a friend request on LFAD. That made me happy.

 

What kind of forum is that?

 

Sssh!

Spoiler

Not a writing forum!

 

Don't worry, your secret forum-ing is safe with me.

Wait, wait, I need to wrap that in spoilers! Lucifer's left testicle! Be distracted by a cute kitten!

 

Not only was that a very cute kitten, it was also a ginger kitten. Double points for you!

 

Well, progress is not as slow as I thought it would be. Finished part 1 in editing, however it is a short part.

Just three more parts and an epilogue to go!

 

Got rid of the cheap hand beater that I was using before I got the stand mixer via Freegle. Gave it away to someone who said she was a budding baker who was getting worn down by hand bearing everything. Felt pretty good.

 

Plus the whipped cream tends to backsplatter all over the ceiling.

 

On the plus side in group today it turns out their is a lot of complexity
in my story, which is great. Needs a bit more realism in the ouch my
lung still hurts after surgery bit.
But I did manage to make a touching moment work, despite needing to
change it a tiny bit to make it more realistic.

However, due to it being so rough shod it did have a bit more 'stage direction'
and more tell than show. Though to be fair it was a part I had reworked to
make Marckus not come off as a whiny asshole.

 

1. Our new coop came in!

2. It's purple!

3. My class also started and I forgot it's a writing intensive, capstone course. I'm not looking forward to this.

 

I initially misread this as poop. I can only say that for me it has just turned midnight, and so this must be the result of me having turned into a pumpkin.

 

What group is that, @Cave Troll ?

 

It's finally Friday.

Since I worked Sunday this has been an extra long work week for me and I really need to just relax for a while. I'm still working today, but in about ten hours I can just collapse in my sofa and not get up until Monday morning (that a lie, but a lie I'll keep telling myself all day.)

Less happiness thread -----> Feels weird that it's been an entire week since Lost's last day in Sweden... Around 90 days left until next time I see him.

 

Since people know I love to write, I get a lot of notebooks as gifts or when people get them as freebies from shows/trade conventions they get given to me. Combined with buying them, I have a lot of notebooks.

My workplace's caretaker commented about one I brought to my current job on my first day, on which I write processes and advice I am given that I think may be useful. One time, the caretaker was complimenting it and he said he needed a new notebook for his work with his Church.

Having a lot of nice ones going spare after a show my bf went to, I came in today with a leather-feel one with an elasticated ring for a pen.

He smiled like a kid at Christmas.

 

I did it again just now!

 

Today I achieved the following;
1-Did a load of laundry
2-Had a bath
3-Did some washing up
4-Went to the GP, got a prescription, and a referral to a specialist
5-Redeemed said prescription, and only paid 2 euro for it.
6-Bought a stocking filler
7-Came up with a card idea
8-Collected my money.

 

New Business cards!

Got my bone marrow donor card. I can't donate blood, platelets, or anything else, but I can at least donate this

 

I penned in "Appendix" on my driver's license donor section.

 

I think mine's borderline broken so I couldn't do that to someone.

 

Well, the sedatives worked. I got 11 hours sleep!

 

Time flies!

Already seven months in the madness that's a long distance relationship.

How about I don't let you go back to England the next time, @LostThePlot?

 

While I was brainstorming for my novel I, naturally, had an idea for a short horror story. Because, you know, that's how writing works. Working on it now and hoping to have it done by the end of the day.
