Here, in no particular order, and for no reason other than I have a quiet patch at work and can’t face a 200 page software design document, are some of the things that have made me happy recently:
· Listening to my flatmate singing to himself in the shower, and changing the lyrics to smut.
· Getting a coffee on the way to the office in the morning, and that moment of just holding the warm cup and inhaling steamy, life-giving java fumes. Bliss.
· Watching someone unselfconsciously talking to their dog...and the dog listening intently as if it understands every word.
· The Xbox achievement popup!
· Laughing at the faux science in cosmetics television commercials: “Hydroaction liposomes”, “TautenineTM!!!” “Elastinium”, “Micro-dermo-abrasion!!”
· My iPhone, for he is a sleek tablet of shiny technological wonderment that gives me a twinge of techno-joy every time I have to use him.
· My dear friend Andrea’s unassailable sense of positivity!
· Sookie Stackhouse novels, part supernatural thrillers, but mostly soft-core porn.
· Christina Yang.
· Duck Gyoza Pho Soup...my new lunchtime addiction.
· My job, odd but true. Actually feel as though in my daily work I am directly making things better for the London commuter, that most beleaguered and downtrodden of London wildlife. My boss is also awesome, which really helps!
These are just the ones I can think of right now. Now off to make myself a cup of office coffee (which sadly will never be included in a list of things that make me happy!)
P.S. Hi Pam!
