The Happiness Thread

"They will fear our steads more than our guns."

 

That's for damn sure!!

 

And Elmo will rule the world.
Obey the Muppet Overlord.

 

Day trip with my parents over to the ever so lovely and stormy and "why on earth would people want to live here"-island!

They are mainly there for flowers and vegetables and stuff like that - and since I'm going away for two weeks without anyone to water daily I can't really get anything this year. That said - might be fun to get out of the house. If nothing else to wear a pretty dress.

 

Aww... you can wear your pretty dresses outside the house...jealous!

Spoiler

Just kidding, that's not one of my oddities.

Yet.

 

You can fotochop yourself into any dress you want!

 

You should try it, man, it's awesome! Not go get a dress on and give us some twirls!

If I had stayed indoors I wouldn't be bothered to actually dress up. Staying at home means not having to deal with clothes, right? Right?

 

I've got a utilikilt that I break out from time to time, so I'm familiar with the feeling.

 

There are no clothes in my apocalyptopia!

 

If I had a private jet, I'd donate it to your cause...but in order to do that I'd probably need to finish a story or two first!

 

No Vertigo for me. Though, that does beg the question: What the hell is causing these dizzy spells. But hey, no Vertigo diagnosis for this Moon, so woot!

 

Perhaps a side effect of some medication? Anaemia? Low blood sugar? Overheating? Dehydration? Drop in blood pressure? Anxiety? Take your pick!

 

For those of us who are Fallout fans-I bought a 50s hits CD specifically for the song "Heartaches By The Number". Still proud of that.

 

That song instantly reminds me of Cass...Damn, I miss New Vegas. Might give it a run tonight since I've got not much else to do this week.

 

!!! Congrats ...but then, did your doctor or whoever tested you give any explanation of what that means for you? Like, will there be more tests to see what it is, or...?

 

I'd like to get a vault suit really. But when would you wear that kinda thing? Doing housework?

 

Wants me to go get a brain scan...which is so funny considering my field of study.

I can think of a few places, but most are dirtier than housework.

They do look comfy for sleeping though.

 

Just start up a ministry, private jets seem to be part of the package these days

 

Got a good rubber band?

 

Am now very happy! Insomnia be damned, I can get my fix now!

 

Not really happy, but an amusing note and in contrast to the rant I left in the Not Happy Thread.

I'm pretty sure my mom's trying to get me to find a woman to date. She asked me to take the dogs to get groomed next Saturday (if I'm not working) and then proceeded to tell me how the two ladies at the grooming place were gay and super nice. She also made a point to tell me two ladies were checking me out at Wal-Mart last night.

So...I guess it makes me happy knowing my mom isn't remotely phased about my apparent sexuality (asexuality is hard for her to grasp and I'm not even going to push gender identity on her).

 

It's nice to see that she's okay with things, even if she's not totally on the mark. Speaking as cis/het/straight/white/raised in dominionist Christian Hellville, I know that sometimes all I can do is try to accept things that I really don't get, and do my best not to cause offense when I get it wrong. Baby steps...

 

All I ask is for people to try. Given that she's a strict Catholic, I think she's doing very well. She's much more worried about me not being Catholic than my not being straight. We've touched on getting gender in the past, but that's a harder concept to grasp than sexuality and she doesn't fuss about my looks anymore.

Baby steps are important, in my opinion, along with people just trying.

 

That's awesome, @Mink . Congrats!
