What Are You Happy About Today?

[Chris]

My brave little men were neutered today. My boss thankfully let me have the day off work to deal with it, as I only found out yesterday that this was happening so soon. The day had a rocky start (we were over 30 mins late for drop-off) but they had the procedure done, came around quickly from the anaesthesia, and since coming home have spent 4hrs asleep on my lap. ‍️

The wounds look neat and clean and the nurses took excellent care of them. Very regular updates (first just as I was unlocking my front door!), fed them the food I brought in instead of theirs (Delta has a sensitive tum), and also kenneled them together without me asking them to (Delta gets distressed when he can't get to Sebastian).

Also, we were so busy chatting I forgot to pay my bill and they forgot to ask for it. I realised as the taxi turned onto the street. I pointed it out and asked if I could call them in 20 minutes and pay over the phone, and thankfully they trusted me to do that. They then helped me get the boys settled in the taxi. Paid it as soon as I got home and let them out their carriers!

I'm home alone with them tonight, so after a high stress/worry day it's time for a glass of wine, junk TV, and hopefully more kitten cuddles.

EDIT: oh, and their "I'm sorry" gift arrived today - a cat tree!

[nightglow]

My grandma is in recovery and the surgery went smoothly. I may see her Sunday. I'll have to see how the weather is and how I am feeling.
My book did actually come today. I already took a peek into it and it is so cool.
Those are the big things today, but I am staying warm.

 

[xSuperMario64x]

I just want to say that I have been active here for eight and a half years, and this forum feels like a home to me. I've made so many amazing friends here (including the love of my life) and I don't know where I would be in my life without you all

besides that there are lots of things I'm happy about today! something I ordered over a month ago finally arrived today and I'm so happy about it! I just got news that my passport is out for shipment, and I should get it sometime next week! I matched my hearts kitty when I went to work today and a lot of people complimented me about it! now I'm spending my evening being cozy, vibing with my doggos and kitties, playing Animal Crossing for a bit, and once I'm done with my chores in game I will work on drawings. and then I'll get to snuggle my love to sleep tonight hehehe

Spoiler: bonus

☾ I got a good start on the Pocket Camp Complete Fishing Tourney event! I will not be making the mistake of getting the golden fishing rod this time ahahah, but I also started Lottie’s challenges! I was wayyy overthinking it the first time I tried one of these lol, but I’m doing pretty well now!

☾ I worked on some art for a bit!

☾ My parents and I watched some Youtube videos this evening, including LDShadowLady’s second episode of Empires season 1!

☾ And I got to play Among Us hide and seek tonight!

 

[Dunquixote]

My mood isn’t the best but I have a few things that I’m happy about .

I had a lot of fun playing Among Us with friends . I love the sloth mask we got for free today .

Last night I got a unit that I’ve been waiting to come to NA servers in Fate Go for a few years.

Spoiler

He’s not an S tier unit nor do I like his ascension forms much, but I wanted him mostly because I liked him (Kirei Kotomine) in Fate Zero; he was a pretty interesting character and had one of the best fight scenes.

My mom had got some cinnamon chips that I really like recently; she’s going to get me another bag soon .

My dad had work today so it has been quiet all day in the house except when one of my nieces was over.

Spanky snuggled with me a lot today .

Last night in Genshin I was able to get some ascension materials for Lynette on my alt even though I haven’t been to Fontaine yet. I noticed that they gave me some teleport spots when I click on the material. Really nice they added this when I was taking time off the game.

That’s it for now .

All right, my day off was a good one!

• I'm off from work!
• I made a few things in Inkscape so I can use them as decals in Gran Turismo 7 in the future. I've had this livery idea that's been floating in my mind since last year, so I'm one step closer to bringing it to fruition! That last word is a hint to my idea hehehe.
• I decided to go on a nostalgia trip and went through the forum archives for 2021 Camp TBT. I mainly went to the thread where you got to play a minigame in the ocean area that @/Mistreil made (and I'm pretty sure it's the first game that they ever made for TBT). Called Go Fish! Oarfish!, it's a snake game where you control an oarfish and "devour the mods" to get the highest score possible. However, there's also a secret Oarchris mode where the main difference is that the oarfish moves significantly slower, has blonde hair, and plays Baby Park from Mario Kart in the background getting progressively quicker as you increase your score. I've had some fun for sure while going on memory lane. If you want to play the game yourself, I got the link here!

Spoiler: Oarchris mode

It's pretty easy to get this far if you plan your paths right, even though it'll take some time. Fun fact: If you run out of space, you'll actually freeze the game! I intentionally got a game over so I can get a score.

• My mom bought chicken nuggets and a couple of biscuits from Popeyes. She also got free fries from them too after they made an error in her order earlier in the week.
• After a very long time, I got around to watching Initial D for the first time ever! It got me hooked and I finished watching through seven episodes. Obviously, it made me really happy to see numerous cars that I recognize. I'm really rooting for Takumi and his Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 as the story progresses.

- Not posted here for a while! I started my new job on Tuesday so been pretty busy for the week. So far so good though there is a lot to learn
- I was worried about the time it took to walk to the office from the station but once I got to know the route, I can make it in about 20 minutes which is fine lol
- Got my annual leave sorted so my holidays can all go ahead
- It's the weekend!

 

[rrenaa]

It’s my weekend!!!! I’m gonna study and play animal crossing

 

[Giddy]

Last night, my youngest cat slept with me, not in the covers, but beside me and when I woke up he was still asleep on the bed with me. DIfferent location on the bed but still sweet either way~!

 

[Mr_Keroppi]

I am happy about so many things today. I hope you are all doing wonderful and that this year has started off well for you!

☆ I am glad to be back in school and working hard!

☆ I have been laying in my bed playing Project Sekai on my iPad. The Sanrio character collab recently happened and I was so lucky and got all 26 cards with only 60K crystals! Thankfully, I still have some crystals left so I can get Fluffy Dreamland Nene this time when the gacha reruns next week!

Spoiler: MY PROFILE IS GORGEOUS NOW-

☆ I am going to cut up some vegetables and make my favorite salad for lunch today!

☆ It snowed in my area and I had some fun walking around and playing in it yesterday haha

☆ My family is going to visit my PoPo (Chinese Grandma) tomorrow!

i've finally finished my slayers amv of nemurenai yoru wa, on lightworks : D

i think that's kinda accurate, though : D

 

[Midoriya]

Happy today because I slept in, which I really needed, and got my favorite coffee drink. The snow cleared here fairly quickly, which is good because my electric toothbrush I ordered arrives at some point today. Also just nice to see the sun again in general. Planning on playing more games and just generally relaxing this weekend because I have a busy week next week. Last, but certainly not least, the Dallas Stars play the Montreal Canadiens tonight, going for their 7th win in a row! Hope everyone has an amazing weekend!

 

[.: Meri :.]

☾ My parents and I watched Demon Slayer: Mugen Train this morning! It was so super good, it definitely lived up to all the hype I remember hearing about it

☾ We recently got the kitties some new puzzle toys, and they seem to be enjoying them so far! ;v; Might have to get some more like these if it lasts.

☾ I made some progress in the Fishing Tourney in Pocket Camp Complete, and did a few more of Lottie’s challenges! I'm gonna be absolutely set on cargo for Gulliver's trips for ages now omg

☾ I did some sketching today!

☾ And I got to play Among Us hide and seek again tonight, which was a blast!!

+ Work was relatively uneventful today which was nice, and things went smoothly for the most part. I did get anxious a bit but was able to push through that.
+ I am becoming more comfortable driving alone again and have found a good dashcam to help with my anxiety of driving and needing to check on how things went while I was driving.
+ I got Jinshi's new outfit for Wuthering Waves.
+ I'm most likely going to buy the digital copy of 28 Days Later since it's very hard to find a physical copy without being like way more than it should be, and I probably will buy the Wicked movie as well.

 

[Shellzilla_515]

Only a few things for today.

• My shift at work has been fairly chill once again. However, the main highlight for me was that a customer brought in a second-generation Audi TTS Coupe! It made me so, so happy, especially when I got to drive it for the first time ever technically speaking (I only just drove it in for service lol)! Of course, it's one of the many cars I can virtually drive in the Gran Turismo series, so you have no idea how hyped I was on the inside seeing it up close and personal.

Spoiler: Bonus photo of said Audi in Gran Turismo 7

Why yes, it is in fact flying. I gotta say, the details look pretty spot on, even the interior!

• I watched Initial D and got up to episode 11! There's this one song that played in the background I really like while Takumi was battling Takeshi's Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32). I'm pretty sure the song was also used as a meme in the past hehehe.

Spoiler: Don't listen to this while driving!

• This last point is quite dear to me (and lengthy too) and is actually related to Animal Crossing for once. January 11 marks ten years since I've became mayor in Lorule, my town in New Leaf that I initially created back in 2015. I didn't really play it a lot in the last few years aside from the Farewell to New Leaf event last year, but it doesn't change the fact that it makes me happy to still see it standing a decade later. I've actually had a few dreams in the past where my town would get corrupted and I'd be so anxious. But that's only it: Dreams. That unfortunate event never really happened. Anyway, I got to celebrate the milestone with Kitt, Celia, Mable, and of course, Isabelle! And admittedly, I did some time travelling beforehand to avoid my villagers moving out unexpectedly through the system settings. If it weren't for my sister who asked for New Leaf as a holiday present back in 2014, I don't think I'd be interested in Animal Crossing in the first place, nor would I somehow discover TBT with the good things it has and sparking my journey of drawing.

Spoiler: A few photos celebrating the milestone 🍃

I don't why, but I am just happy today! I guess because it was a good day with my coworkers. The expected snow didn't stick? I am also loving the fact that my new kitty of a few moths has never seen me dance before! Which, believe me, you should feel bad for my cat having to see this!

I truly feel happy though! It's a rare time, so I will take it!!!

Here is my cat Cosma by the way...it's not much different than other pictures have shared but she retreated to this new box, and just stared at me lol It's hard to read cats feelings, but I am pretty sure this is one of embarrassment!

I was dancing to Violent Femmes and Dr. Dre, in case you were wondering .

- I ate some Nepali food for dinner that tasted yummy, especially the steamed momos.
- Went to another pickleball lesson and learned some serving techniques. The weather was nice and sunny too.
- Took a nap in the afternoon which helped me a bit with my tiredness.
- Played AC: New Leaf and Ankha gave me her photo.

Despite a CFS flare-up making me feel like I've a hangover (didn't drink!), I was productive today. I tore down a fish tank (my betta passed a while ago and I've decided I don't want another pet right now), cleaned the axolotls tank, and assembled a cat tree for Seb and Delta.

They also got their cones off this afternoon!

I'm going to go curl up on the couch now.
