Happy things
A couple of hours ago an lj post would have been a very bad idea. Today was another in a long list of fatigue writeoffs, worsening family news, more missed social engagements (so sorry
doctor_k_, I *really* wanted to see the show), and sundry other badnesses.
However, I refuse to dwell on gloom, so today I list happy things.
Things that make me happy (in no particular order):
* Husband. His presence, hugs, care, concern and daily delivery of straight lines to which I must respond. The fact that last night we both managed an impressive and instinctive turn of speed when we heard the words "Knut's first birthday" on the TV in the next room.
* Writing atrocious puns. Recent favourite: "loftwuffe" for wartime pigeon service. You groan, I smile.
* The cats. Whether they are purry, grumpy, jealous, needy, mysterious, playful or sleeping, they give great comfort.
* My family. Yes, they drive me crazy, but they're a pretty good bunch of people all up.
* My friends and extended lj/swancon community. So many extremely interesting, intelligent, amusing and kind people.
* LiveJournal. For keeping me in touch with people rather more effectively than my usual once-per-year binge at Swancon, and for rekindling my long-lost love of recreational writing.
Please share with the happy.
