Things That ROCK

Postby Foomatic » Thu Jan 19, 2012 1:39 pm

Just went through the "Things that Suck" thread and thought that we should balance that out with a "Things that Rock" thread, yeah? :)

A couple of things that ROCK:

1. Watching my daughter have the time of her life in her ballet class
2. Paddy, my iPad
3. The 49ers in the NFC Championships! Who's got it better than us!? The Superbowl is in our sights!

Like the concept of "Things that Rock"

1) Our Christmas Tree - still beautiful and still up!
2) Having lunch with family, being together, exchanging gifts (yeah, a little late)
3) Being alive and employed and having love all around me

HAVE A GREAT REST OF THE YEAR, Kittens!

1. My nephew
2. My nephew's smiles and laughs
3. Having my brother back in town, so that we can have a fiddle back in our kitchen music
4. Hearing my sisters, brother, and dad sing
5. Singing Traveling Soldier with 2 of my sisters, and hearing how much better it's gotten over the years, and the fact that our voices blend together now
6. Conversations with my sister
7. The fact I finally finished my nephew's baby blanket today, my first big successful knitting project
8. Texting with my crush while we watch the same Doctor Who
9. Lemon poppyseed scones. and eating them while texting like the Whovian dork that I am
10. Watching Doctor Who with my roommate and her son
11. Having random conversations with my roommate and her son, mostly centering around Doctor Who

random times my friends let me know they care about me, that rocks.
My mother always says that if a person cant say something nice, and be kind then they should not say anything at all.

My roommates. They're really very awesome! The friend I first moved in with adores both Doctor Who and Buffy, so it's kind of perfect, and her girlfriend and son are fans of them as well. Oh, and they are supportive of my desire to frequently eat dinners that consist entirely of cheese, ice cream, and/or cookies :) Best of all, sometimes I get to randomly hear sonic screwdrivers around the house. And it's considered completely normal for me to mention Doctor Who in every conversation, no matter the topic.

Vacation!!!

Ok, so it's not really a vacation, but it's a well needed two week break between ending my job working for the douchiest boss ever, and starting my new one working for/with one of my best friends.

so, today I:
1. slept in (I used to wake up either at midnight or 4:45am, depending on the shift)
2. lounged in my pajamas all day
3. took a no guilt nap
4. am drinking a triple americano with my dinner, cuz I can stay up as late as I want!

It feels SO GOOD! :grin

Hi All!

If you read my little bit after the Feb Fic Challenge then don't bother to read this.

But I wanted to say my piece about Shelby AKA Finey_McFine. Okay, so a few days ago she's winning the Feb fic challenge and she decides to give me (second place at the time) the signed copy from Amber as a gift. Okay, she chats with Kate (BeMyDeputy) last night and sets it up FROM HER HOSPITAL BED!!! What incredible kindness and generosity! I am totally touched by that and I think that Shelby is an amazing writer (proved over and over again) but she is an even more amazing PERSON!!!

Thanks Shelby, still in the hospital but getting better! :clap :applause :clap Balloons for you=> :balloons

Good friends. I was having a shitty day, and I had one friend randomly show up with a six pack and an invitation to porch hang-out time, and another show up with a new computer screen and random computer parts (which she installed). Dude. Friends are awesome.

Hey, Shelby! Glad to hear about your wife! Yay for love!

My son called to tell me he loves me and is thinking of me AND Kate is going to wait for me to get through surgery and tend to me. Bless her heart!

Things are... *good* with me and my crush. It feels like things make sense, like I know where she is and maybe even where were headed. It feels wonderful; these last few days, for the first time in nearly 2 months I really feel like we're starting something, and it's something I hadn't felt in a very long time before her. It *rocks* to feel like I have someone.
