The Happiness Thread

You sound like the sort of person who would enjoy coffee jelly.



Dump condensed milk, cream, Bailey's, whatever over it.

 

I feel like I have had tiny versions of this after all you can eat Japanese but always plain. I never imagined the possibilities. I have been wasting my life up until this point.

 

My partner referred to me in a conversation with another as her best friend.

I know it's childish, but I'm so happy.

I have basically no self esteem and hearing somebody say something like that is incredible to me.

 

nice old man shoes Homer!!!

Actually they are pretty nice

 

Nice! Who makes them? I went on a yuuge Allen Edmonds kick, as you may remember, but now I think I need to branch out. Thinking about pulling the trigger on some Undandy's if I can make up my mind.

 

Snazzy! And, adorable doggie paws.

 

Shot 4 scenes today, on the spot! It took less than 2 hours. I was afraid that I would have to reshoot the whole thing, because I didn't have time to process the vids at all (I had to run, run, run)! I was certain I would have to reshoot. Certain I tell ya, certain! (I thought I fucked up the axis). It turns out I don't. I imported the vids into the editor and they were perfect! I think I'm getting pretty good at this.

Now, I just have to write a script for my next short which is due Friday. The script I mean, not the film. I still have no idea what I'm gonna write... Oh well. I'll figure it out tomorrow.

 

What kinda show are shootin'?

 

I will be able to see My Amazing Man a lot sooner than expected. Any time, really.
Until I get stuck in a job in the UK.

 

A small one, but it went into my Jar O' Good Things anyway:

I found the sunglasses I was certain had been lost at an airport!!!! They were inexpensive*, but I was bummed because they're my favorite pair and I couldn't find another like them.

*Never travel with expensive sunglasses, because they will get lost or stolen and can mark you as a good potential victim for thieves.

 

Something dark. Something devious. Something dead.

If I find it worthy when it's finished (which I highly doubt), I will upload it somewhere and brag about it here, and there, and everywhere.

 

As an extra happy to add to this, I discovered that I have 6 days holiday left until february 2020. I thought I only had 5, so that was a pleasant surprise.

 

Screenplay treatment is d o n e ! Time to take a shower and sleep for a couple of hours. Gn!

 

It's been a full year since Lost's first visit to Sweden!

I wasn't cat fished or murdered and I think that is celebratable when meeting strange men online!

 

Holy crap, I just went looking for a no-longer manufactured Thing* that's for sale at one of my local Thing shops for a very affordable price and discovered that it's a Valuable Thing in the larger world.

Think I'm going to go triple my money tomorrow.

 

Well, what is it? If you don't mind me asking...

 

RC car

 

So happy the other half is taking a cruise tomorrow for several reasons. One is that she's been ratty recently from stress, so some time away from one another will be good for a while. The other is I hate cruising because I get horribly seasick. The third is that I get brownie points from her going off on a cruise, which means when I want something for me in a little while, I'm much more likely to get it. It's a win all round!

 

My partner has travelled several hours from our temporary duty station up to our home patch for the weekend and we're going out for afternoon tea tomorrow. I know it's been all of 36 hours since I was put on medical leave, but if there's any time you need your best friend around, it's times like these.

 

You know we’re going tell Lost you called him strange.

 

I think his own mother can back me up on that one, though...

 

I got my next kitchen gadget and now I'm on my way home from the supermarket with ingredients for a dish to make with it.

A condition of making it feel worth it to the other half was using it promptly.
