Good Things (I've never started one of these before)

roxy_fondue

Good morning!
To start off this day right, I thought it would be fitting to initiate the very first "good things" thread on these here boards.

Good things, or "things that are not bad":
- just ate some muesli and am feeling particularly healthy
- live journal (am a self-admitted addict)
- going to visit the boy this weekend
- the apprentice season finale tonight!
- sunny day out
- only one assignment left before i graduate

and you?

*I'm teaching a fun class tomorrow about preventing spam
*It's almost the weekend!
*I found some good free magazines at the library

1. Sun
2. Two cats hanging out in my bedroom window because I opened it for some fresh air
3. Good coffee
4. The new boards are a pretty good thing (though I don't particularly like the colors on Supernaturale)
5. Milk of magnesia soaks up the oil in my skin like nobody's business

And, well, SUNSHINE!

danimals yogurt drinks, their only two faults are that they are too small and that they are shaped so you can't get the last bit of yogurt out.

I got a happy meal last night with a cute little beagle in it and it was only 1.51, I felt like it was 1987 or something :)

My doggie isn't so afraid of the clicker anymore, i.e. progress in her training :)

i've actually never participated in one of these threads before, but here goes:

-the clerk at the fancy stationery store yesterday let me in after closing to pick up my new, super luxurious personalized stationery. it looks fabulous, and i feel like i have something i've been waiting my whole life for.

-i then stopped at the goodwill store, and bought a photo album. something i've been needing for about three years and could never bring myself to buy because they're too expensive.

-this weekend, i'm going on a field trip with kids from the children's center i volunteer at. we're taking them to the bay area kids museum!

I got to use my manicure/pedicure gift certificate today (that I've had since x-mas)

The lady who giving me the manicure/pedicure asked if I was 18 (I'm 27)

I get to see my mom's new puppy this afternoon.

I'm going to make chicken enchiladas for me and the hub tonight (my favorite)

The hub and I are seeing Bowie on Saturday!

The kitchen is clean, and my laundry is done.

Ahem!

1. I got my prom dress in the mail, and it fits PERFECTLY (okay, so it hikes my bust up to something old movie star-esque, but that's not a bad thing)

2. I had an awesome vegetable sandwich for dinner.

3. I lost a pound since yesterday, even though I had some red velvet cake.

4. And today is about a hundred million times better than yesterday.

* It's really warm out, and I think the nice weather is going to stick around for a few days this time.

* I got an A- in a class I wasn't too sure about.

* I'm so with you, Roxy, on the LJ. I just started mine. I'm in love, it's so much better than my other, non-LJ blog.

* I sense that it'll be a good weekend. If not, at least it's still a weekend.[/url]

neesypea - i'm so jealous you are seeing Bowie this weekend! but that brings me to my good things...

1. Saw The Polyphonic Spree a couple of weeks ago and am still revelling in the joy. (they are opening for Bowie - enjoy!)

2. Saw Mates of State last week and am still wearing the t-shirt.

3. It's a gorgeous, sunny day in NYC.

4. I am 2 pounds away from my Weight Watchers goal!

5. I am going to drink a really cold diet Coke in a few minutes.

6. Spring is finally here.

-I'm not feeling too hot today, but I already got my waitress shift covered for tonight... this is a big relief, I can recuperate from the f***ing headache for one more day.

-This week I got jewelry orders from shops in Sacramento & Berkeley, and am setting stuff up with La Bussola in Reno, run by glitter girls!

-I'm co-organizing an art sale on May 1, which I think will be really fun. We are partnering with Church of Craft to do free craft classes/demos during the sale, too! The info (except for the demo schedule, still figuring it out) is at http://www.richesatrimskys.com/ if anyone wants to see...

-Got tickets to Baltimore & NYC for late May, to go to a wedding and see friends and hopefully my whole family. I'm excited!

-My boyfriend's new movie premieres at a festival here on Saturday night: http://www.rodeofilmco.com/peripheralproduce/>

-These lovely boards!
