Narf the Mouse Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I have a new purse coming. Yay ! When my old wallet deteriorated too much, I managed to replace it with the exact same wallet. Well, same make and brand. Was wandering through a local mall and found it in a wallet shop.

SatinKitty Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Heh. My Dad is not poor, but his wallet is held together with tape. He has at least one unused new "spare". He just is happy with his wallet and has not found one he likes better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread One thing made my day yesterday. I was in the lobby of a hotel, watching people ice skate in the skating rink below. I saw a young lady leaving the skating rink grinning from ear to ear. She looked so happy, I started feeling happy as well. She didn't notice me, of course; I was watching from a window above. But she did have an effect on me.

John T Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I have nothing I need to do. As obsessive as I can be about "being productive" sometimes, I really do need down-times like this occasionally. I keep forgetting that.

SatinKitty Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread I took my antique bracelet in to have it enlarged, they said they couldn't do it. I thought it was too small. So I tried putting it on and it's tight but it fits ! I also have my little purse back and I have a clean email inbox. So I'm cheerful !

Enforcer84 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Got the Job in Portland. Waiting for the offer and the balls to counter. But I'm probably going to take it. It will be moving to a more expensive city, taking a pay cut...but I've managed to make do pretty good with my unemployment - on $357 a week - but that was with a really cheap place, no gas/auto insurance, no student loans, etc. So I'm probably going to have to scale some stuff back for a couple of months until I can find the balance. I've lived in Corvallis for almost 35 years. Gonna be weird living somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xavier Onassiss Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Lots of progress on the latest convention game today. It has a plot. (kinda important) Character sheets are nearly done. I still gotta do some character sheets for the "bad guys" but they'll be stock adversaries with a few things re-tooled. And then, the so-called "boss fight" at the end needs something. It looks like I might actually finish writing this thing over the weekend... four days early, instead of desperately printing off semi-complete notes and characters at the last minute. Woot!

Enforcer84 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread First off, thanks guys for the kind words. I start tomorrow. I'm nervous of course but really excited. The company I am going to work for, PBS Environmental + Engineering is pretty cool, and I'm going to be getting some nifty bennies for working there (the main ones start after three months) but this is an eco friendly place, I will have a paid bus pass, and they also have a deal with a local fitness club and given my relatives in Portland who I'll have frequent encounters with I will be losing weight...in fact today I was hiking the nearby area looking for apartments to rent (wasn't as successful as I had hoped but I got a few phone numbers. And took the bus back to my aunt's place. It was nice 2 hours of walking - my legs haven't forgiven me yet. Lots of hills in Portland. I'm a little intimidated by the city - particularly driving in it, but the places I hope to find will be bus accessible and that should do me just fine. Oh! Totally psyched for the stuff I'm gonna be learning too! They -er, we have converted our 3 server closets to 1.5 by replacing the old units with fewer, modern ones and running virtual machines on them ...lowering cooling costs and power consumption in the process, how cool is that? Sounds like I'll be pretty busy and I'm hoping to learn the ins and outs of the recently added VoIP system. And maybe next time Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers hit the area I won't miss them!

lemming Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Ok. Just signed up for a gallery show for May 24, 2013. A lot of time to procrastinate on which 20ish photos to use. Though I am approaching a few other venues in the meantime, so I should have a pretty solid grouping by then. And where I forgot to add: The Village at Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab Utah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
