teh bunneh Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Believe it or not, I've managed to finish writing up both of my convention games that I'll be running in February! February! That's like three months away! I'm usually lucky to finish my con games three days ahead of time! I've even got the character sheets all printed out. I mean, I'm so far ahead of the curve right now that I can't even see the curve. And I think both adventures are going to be way cool. I'm running Teen Titans Go! (the title is "Rabbit Rampage!"), and Lucha Libre Hero (the title is "Los Misteriosos contra los Zombis Azteca!"). Now I have to come up with some other way to spend my long winter evenings...

CrosshairCollie Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Had a decent birthday. Good dinner, spent some time with my friends playing the pirate-themed Munchkin game, and won. Go, British Navy. Best friend got me some nice presents, but the best present actually came from the Social Security Department, telling me that my disability determination has gone through and that I won't have to get a lawyer or go to a hearing.

Cancer Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Thanksgiving went very well at our place. 8 in attendance. My brother & his family showed up during the after-dinner dessert stage, but too stuffed from the feast at her mom's place to eat much. Well, my brother had one piece of my soft gingerbread, but that's a blast-from-the-past taste thing that I consider quite forgivable.

L. Marcus Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Anyway -- in order to educate more physicians, the University in co-operation with the northern counties has decided to place more of the clinical parts of med school at the three regional hospitals at Sundsvall, Östersund, and Luleå-Sundebyn. Ten students per term per hospital, out of a hundred.We got the results from the application process a couple of minutes ago -- I'm going north again in just over a year!

Blue Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I saw not enough people at work were doing the "Adopt-a-family" program for the holidays, so I decided to fix my Grinchly attitude and jump in. "Take this one! It's a kid who wants art supplies". Cool, I love to go shopping for art supplies. Turns out it's a five year old. Oh, well, I figure I can manage to channel a five year old. Five year old girl, I'm in formed. Well, I'm not good at channeling that. So I called my mom who works in daycare for 5-year old girl art supply suggestions. Forty minutes of shopping at Michael's and I've purchased WAY too much stuff for her. She better share with any siblings. And my bad attitude is done. That was kind of fun. The only problem now is not playing with the stuff myself. So I better wrap it right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I had talked to the owner of Rocking V about hanging some of my photos at his gallery when he reopened for the season. He responded well and wanted me to send him a link to some of my online stuff when I was more ready. Couple nights ago, I sent him a link to my blog which has a few of my photos I consider good for print, but as an after thought gave him a link to my flickr set. The next morning, he replied to my email and pointed out a dozen photos from my flickr area that he'd like me to bring by. He went thru 1600 photos and made some very good observations on more than just the dozen. No guarantee that I'll get any in, still have to get the printing, matting and framing done, but I've found this to be pretty gratifying. This is one of the pictures, though to me, it gives me a sense of vertigo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enforcer84 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread so this year I took part and finished NaNoWriMo. But my 50k were choppy, scenes I knew I wanted but hadn't really connected. The work is entirely personal and mostly derivative, shclocky romance fiction. However I've been working off and on on this stuff for the better part of a year with my big push in November building steam. Now I've passed 80k words and I'm actually writing 3 separate stories and couldn't be more pleased with myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Not a bad couple weeks. I setup a cafepress site so that some t-shirts and stuff were available for The Stinky Book Club which is a blog about my wife reading to a particular group of cats at Best Friends. I also will be getting some photos up in a gallery in town. I'll be making a pittance, but right now, it's more about exposure than money.

Old Man Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Exposure is easy! You just have to make sure there's no cops around. Not that I would, uh, know... Nice photos, BTW. Good composition. And I know how hard wildlife photography can be--after all I have two kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread It seems like a pair of merlins are trying to set up a nest near our house! The crows are giving them a hard time, but we've been hearing the falcons (and seeing them) every day for about a week now. And Sunday I saw both members of the pair of peregrines who are nesting in the structure of the Ballard Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
