The grocery store next door to my work place got their first shipment of Christmas trees over the weekend. I can smell them in my own building. One of the best scents in the world, I love the smell of pine. One of the many reasons I love living in the Pacific Northwest.

My other job has some Apple Pie air freshener. It actually smells like freshly baked apple pie. It's been known to make my mouth water it smells soooooo good!

My day is made when people compliment me for working hard. Oh, and listening to my Ipod...that makes my day, too.

There's a documentary about tarantulas on Animal Planet right now.

(Well, it made my day.)

I know that WOULDN'T make my mom's day...she's afraid of spiders! XD

Of course, whenever a good 'toon I like comes on TV that makes my day, especially since I don't like most of the ones out now.

On the Home Improvement episode I'm watching they were talking about milk. Milk milk milk milk milk. Then I open my email from Screen Archives (they sell movie soundtracks) and see an ad for:



LMAO.

LOL! Nice!

Speaking of Danny Elfman in that poster I love his music. Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice...those made my day and still do now. *has fond memories* After all this time I finally bought the Edward Scissorhands DVD. I hate that I never see it on tv anymore because it really is a fantastic film.

"Home Improvement" with Tim Allen? I loved that show, and I think I recall which episode all the milk happened in.

For anyone who remembers my coworker who is an expectant mommy, she was having a great day today. And you could see it too, it's like she was glowing. And just as I was leaving for the day, I overheard her tell a customer her exciting news and he was genuinely happy for her. They chatted for a bit and I heard her laugh. That made me very happy. She really deserves more days like this.

Baby Parrots and baby coworkers eh? Looking at baby animals sure takes the sting out of all this awfulness. Heres some of my favourites:

Ooh, I love those mergansers! So adorible.

And let's see, what made my day today? I got a Johnsonville meat and cheese tray today for our Christmas party on Sunday. I just had to have some when I got home. Sooooo good! One of the highlights of this time of year. I hope I have the discipline not to finish it before Sunday.

This week I learned something useful during our class's fluid mechanics presentations: don't let your hot water tank's pressure get too high, or it becomes a rocket and causes a bit of destruction.
