~ Finally finishing a long, thought-out review of a fanfic. I felt very accomplished when I finished and submitted it without letting a "WTH were you thinking when you wrote this?!" comment slip out. (It was a low-caliber fic, and that's putting it mildly.)

~ Getting some more written on my Foster's fanfic series. Someone's been stuck in the middle of a monologue for about two weeks now, so moving forward through said monologue made me feel so much better.

~ Successfully closing SubWay tonight, especially since it was my first time doing it.

~ Getting a warm graduation card from my friend's family. It was a very nice card, and it gave me the warm fuzzies.

That's all I got for now. This is certainly a very happy thread; good idea, AerostarMonk!

Seeing the trailers and advertisements for the upcoming Wall-E movie made my day a week ago or so. I was smiling for the rest of the day.

A couple weeks back I was having a totally lousy day at work... and then one of my coworkers bought my a chocolate chip cookie out of the blue. Never underestimate the power of chocolate chip cookies.

Two things made my day, though these are pretty much the same incident just at different times:

-Last week I went to the Field museum in Chicago with my girlfriend (I still can't believe I can say that now lol) and I was wearing a Chip and Dale Rescue rangers T-shirt. While we were walking, a little boy pointed to me and told his mom "Look mom Chip and Dale". That just made me smile.

-Two days ago, I was having ice cream (again) with my girlfriend and this time wearing a Sonic the hedgehog T-shirt with a spray paint like design on it. A bunch of FULL GROWN teenagers actually stopped after they got ice cream and told me I had a "freaking cool" Sonic t-shirt. I love it when people notice my " shirt advertisements" of my favorite shows.

There's a new supermarket in town, a place called Price Right, which I checked out earlier today. They're only open until 9:00 PM so I still don't have the privilage of post-midnight shopping; however, they're a little cheaper than Stop & Shop, and they're a hell of a lot closer. Not too crowded, either. And since I enjoy grocery shopping, well, I'm smiling right now.

No clue what made me think of this, but...

A few weeks ago, I got to work at noon, which is right in the middle of the acursed lunch rush. The fact that I had to change into my work shirt heavy on my mind (I'd been at the DMV not five mnutes earlier), I marched right up to the register and punched in. A girl aged about 9 or 10 saw me and turned to her mom, saying, "I like how she gets to work right away."

Translation: My daddy raised me right.
