'Something good happened today' <--You? Post here!

Hmm, a few good things, even tho work is shit.
1. on monday my colleague came back from holiday, unfortunately
she will be in training for some time to come, even more unfortunate
it will be when my mentor goes on his holiday, as I will have my hands
even more full with mentoring and my normal job (which is currently
3 peoples work anyway.)

2. I got an excellent letter today, which made me smile :)

3. I _finally_ managed to get my ass to buy some frames and get some
pictures on the empty walls, anime stuff.

4. I found an EXCELLENT cheese, I been looking for a good one, but
I'm afraid to take chances, but today I did and it definetly paid off.
It's called Wästgöta Kloster, not sure what that means, but it's very
nice, maybe one of the swedes can say more of it.

5. I finally have all the anime shows downloaded and ready to burn,
which means a new installation of Windows 2000 on the weekend...
I hope this time I make it ;)
 
i've had a relaxing day at work. did practically nothing, read stuff, saw friends. and i didn't vomit on my keyboard. this sure qualifies under "good".
 
Talking with Gaby always makes me feel a lot better.. I guess this qualifies for something to be mentioned here :p

And the excellent cup of tea I mentioned before has really improved this evening. I hope we can keep it that way.. me and the tea :)
 
I spent most of the morning and afternoon playing with various XP themes and skins for Winamp and Opera and generally making the computer look different and much better.
 
good: i was able to install an ethernet network thingie and my internet all by myself, and now i have internet at homeee! in fact, now i have a home! :D
 
Today was my first day of school this year :\
It was pretty good because my girlfriend now goes to the same school and i got to be with her for a few hours after.
Also got more Mountain Dew <---very good
 
Nearly the whole day alone was good, as was getting a decent looking Windows shell-thingy-wossname almost sorted out. I have a feeling something else happened, but I can't remember if so.
 
I'M IN AN ADVERTISING AWARDS BOOK!

It's a local one. No, I didn't actually have any entries to win anything. But I'm in an ad that won a finalist award! You can see only my profile and I look like a dork :p

Still! :)

I got The Genius of Peter Kay sent to me via email. Here it is just in case no one's seen it before.

1. I saw a woman wearing a sweatshirt with 'Guess' on it. I said, thyroid problem?
2. When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realised that The Lord doesn't work that way, so I stole one and asked him to forgive me.
3. My mom was a ventriloquist and she always was throwing her voice. For ten years I thought the dog was telling me to kill my father.
4. I've often wanted to drown my troubles, but I can't get my wife to go swimming.
5. I was doing some decorating, so I got out my step-ladder. I don't get on with my real ladder.
6. I went to a restaurant that serves 'breakfast at any time'. So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.
7. Well I was bullied at school, called all kinds of different names. But one day I turned to my bullies and said - 'Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me', and it worked! From there on it was sticks and stones all the way.
8. My Dad used to say 'always fight fire with fire', which is probably why he got thrown out of the fire brigade.
9. Sex is like a game of bridge: If you don't have a good partner, you'd better have a good hand.
10. I saw six men kicking and punching the mother-in-law. My neighbour said 'Are you going to help?' I said 'No, Six should be enough.'
11. If we aren't supposed to eat animals, then why are they made out of meat?

it's not a big day for good news, but:

the third electronic arts videogame based on the harry potter series came out. maybe it didn't happen today, but i found out today. so, i'm going to order it right away along with a bunch of books, and i'll be hooked for a while. i loved the first two games - easy and all, but sure they were fun.
