The Happiness Thread

Happy New Year @Andrae Smith!

I totally get the mind being set on gratitude bit. As I was sitting alone seeing in the New Year, all I could think of is how lucky and fortunate I am. Much happened last year with the potential to drag my spirit down, but whenever I faltered there was always a hand at the ready to pull me to my feet again, and dust me down.

All I wish for this new year is that I can be as supportive of those lovely people as they have been of me.

And of course, where would I be without all you guys?

 

Had to look dog's bollocks up. Hilarious etymology.

 

@GingerCoffee That's a personal favourite of mine.

@minstrel Hey Dude...check out my likes.

I'm not gloating I swear... I'm just completely gobsmacked by the irony. Having BPD I get really nasty bouts of feeling worthless. I'm not one for taking the like-to-post ratio seriously, but even I feel a little encouraged I've hit the thousand.

Thanks guys... a lovely start to my new year.

 

Not just a 1,000, look at the ratio of likes to posts. That may just be the highest ratio on the forum.

 

@GingerCoffee

How do you have 10.5 thousand posts?!!

 

Good question

 

Check out @Cogito's total. Argh.

 

Sad isn't it.

I like to think of it as being immersed in my writing.

 

You're wrong, she only has 10,499.
Crap, it just changed to 10,500...

 

40,000....

He's been here since 2007. GC's been here since 2013.

So 10,500 in 2 years vs 40,000 in 8 years. Average number of posts per year is the same

 

I was also a moderator for over five years, which also increased my posting volume.

 

OK, so don't rub my socially defective post count in.

 

Cotton Bowl: Michigan State 42, Baylor 41.

Sugar Bowl: Ohio State 42, Alabama (coached by that prick, Nick Saban) 35.

Most happy.

 

Ten thousand words go by surprisingly fast when you're writing a first draft.

 

This is why I don't write first drafts. I usually start with the second or third draft. At least, that way, I notice the words going by!

 

KORRA AND ASAMI FROM LEGEND OF KORRA ARE BI!

 

This morning I was happy that here in southern Maine, we only received about six inches of snow, which is easier to shovel than trying to shovel a foot or more of snow.

 

You're climbing up the ranks pretty fast, though.

 

Ok, so I had a friend in high school who I liked quite a bit, but I thought she was way out of my league. We've now agreed to go to the fringe fest together next summer and then go for a coffee.

... have I just got a date?

 

Good luck, yo.

 

Have fun, Lemex!

 

Thanks guys. It's the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, a huge comedy festival, and will be in the summer. Still, will be nice to see her again at the very least.

 

Today I'm happy because it wasn't windy like it was yesterday here in southern Maine.

 

well, everything seems right again in my world, the insanity of my schedule continues, oh how i love have a lot to do! (i work 20 hours a week in retail, 15 an a half hours at college, plus homework, writing time, and gaming time, i dont know how i get it done, but i do!)

 

Today I am awake; be happy.
