What Are You Happy About Today?

Here’s another round of stuff that made me happy!
  • I went to the grocery store (again) and got the stuff I need. After I was done, I decided to go for a walk in a park that is beside the store. I then saw a group of dogs playing with each other while I walked by. However, this one dog had other ideas and decided to approach me. A few seconds later, another one came to me and guess what kind of dog it is. It’s a rough collie! I absolutely love their fluffy fur and they’re my favourite dog breed. It even decided to touch my hand briefly with its nose (it also stepped on my foot lol). If you didn’t know, I always have a bad feeling that dogs will bite when they approach me so I felt a little scared. Fortunately, that was not the case! I continued on my way while the dogs kept playing with each other.
  • Feel free to skip this point. Just before I pulled into the driveway, I spotted a 2007 Audi R8 from a fair distance! Literally a minute later when I got out of the car, I saw it again as the driver just so happened to pass through my street, giving me a better look at it. Very nice, and it's the second Audi I've been able to identify without a struggle!
  • I played GT Sport again and this one race gave me a run for my money. Just so you know, I was racing against AI. I was on the final lap with a couple of corners to go with only being a few seconds behind first place. It looked hopeless as I was going to finish in second. However, my opponent got a horrible exit out of the final corner while I on the other hand got a great exit. Because of this, it was a race to the finish line, overtook my opponent, and I just BARELY won. The gap? It was 0.054 seconds of a difference! Here's an Imgur link to video proof that I didn't make it up. There's audio, too. It's definitely a race to remember. :)

audis are beautiful! They're modern but fancy.
 
didn’t post yesterday as it was a bad day and i was too tired, but i've still got some stuff that i’m happy about. :’)

• alize (my black & white kitten) meowed at me and we cuddled a lot, including while i continued watching the rest of the hunger games. <3
• mazikeen (my tabby kitten) and i didn’t cuddle, but she did give me a few kisses on the hand, which was very sweet. <3
• finally began posting around the forums again! i’ve only been posting in this thread and a few others, so it feels nice to try and be a bit more active again!
• had 2 delicious egg, cheese and sausage sandwiches for breakfast.
• my mom ordered me a ring that looks like a penguin! i’m not typically into wearing jewelry, but it’s so cute that i’ll definitely be wearing it once it arrives. :’)

Had another really good counseling session today. I'm really feeling my new counselor and she's been really helpful processing a lot of things I've been through the last couple months.
On another note, I'm happy because my couch finally is on it's way for my new place and I ordered a cute baby book so I'm excited to do that and document aspects of my pregnancy/baby's milestones.
 
Today has been very eventful and busy!

- Went to work and saw two of my favorite coworkers! It's so much of a weight lifted from my shoulders whenever they're around ;v;
- Played Harvest Moon: Tale of Two Towns for a bit before I went into work!! And in the middle of the night, too >w>
- Prepared some parcels for amiibo card trading! A HUUUUGE thank-you to @Ekuseru for being kind enough to get me a shipping label since I'm broke and am supposed to be saving for a trip to Canada soon ;v;
- Also received some amiibo cards from trades today! Thanks to Ekuseru again for Ione and @marilyna49 for Judy!!! :3
- This was yesterday, but I got my NDSL in the mail ;v; Named her Norma! Decorated her with some stickers, too.
- Got some stickers in the mail for my bullet journal! Some for @Azzy too c:
- My favorite band (Bad Suns) released a new single today from their album coming out soon! I'M SO EXCITED!!!
- Listed some mangas and k-pop albums on Mercari for sale. Hopefully I get some buyers! I love mail. LOL. I love mailing things, shipping things! It's so fun ;w;
 
Kind of binged watched a lot of a One Piece collection set I got for Christmas. I probably should had stopped watching at some point, but I liked the arc and overall speed of it. It was too fun and interesting lol...

thank you! i really appreciate you and @Croconaw taking the time to respond to my dental woes — it definitely helped ease my anxiety a bit. :’)

it’s also super cool that you’ve started writing again! i’m actually hoping to get back into doing it again as well. i used to flesh out short stories pretty frequently, but then the past two years and writer’s block happened lmao. 😅

I haven't been very active here, so sorry for this really late reply. I'm glad that we were able to ease your mind and it's awesome that you're wanting to get back into writing. I didn't know that you did that. It can be really fun to do! I would love to read your short stories, but I understand if you don't want to post them. I mean, I haven't posted any of my own works lol.
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I've been sleeping a bit deeper at night again.
- My back pain feels like it's starting to ease up again.
- I have a massage scheduled for tomorrow and that should help.
- I talked to my mom tonight and she wasn't in the middle of a crisis for a change.
- The new treats I ordered for my dog came in the mail today.
 
Today was a VERY chilly, but yet again another happy day for me:
  • I went outside to go somewhere. This sounds weird, but I liked the cold temperatures (at least -15C) while driving on the road. Don't worry, I bundled up for the weather and kept warm.
  • Feel free to skip this point. For the 114th car I've spotted, I saw a Jaguar F-Type parked just peeking out of the alleyway even though I only saw the rear view of it.
  • I played GT Sport for the umpteenth time. There's this one car called the 2017 Lexus LC500 that has 10 gears which boggled my mind. That's pretty unusual for a car, but not for trucks. Funnily enough, one of the youtube channels I regularly watch uploaded a video today explaining why some cars have a lot of gears. I ended up learning some things in the process so that's nice.
  • I took a nap for a couple of hours and felt a more positive mood after I woke up.
  • Listened to a lot of music today.
  • Logged on to ACNH today to play HHP. RNG helped me out today as Jacques appeared! I have him in my New Leaf town, so I chose him as soon as I could. Long story short, I went on a nostalgia trip recreating his house interior by memory with modern additions, and that his song of choice was K.K. Disco, the first song I ever got in New Leaf. :')
  • Continuing from ACNH, I saw Queenie wearing the green elegant hat I gave her on her birthday for the first time. She even went on to invite me to her house afterward. 😊
 
☾ I got some pretty serious dusting done in my room! I'm feeling much better now that it's done. ^^
☾ Looked through the Code: Realize ~Wintertide Miracles~ fanbook today! I got to see some artwork of my two faves that I hadn't seen before, so I'm really happy about that.
☾ Both of my parents did already notice the picture from the frame I put up in the living room, but I got a pretty good laugh out of their reactions anyway!
☾ Played some more DQXI S! I'm still working on using all the Pep Powers, but this is probably something I would've done even without an associated accolade, because I really like seeing all the different cutscenes for them.
 
was once again too exhausted to post last night, but i had a fairly decent day at least. :’)

• cuddled with mazikeen (my tabby kitten) and she gave me kisses on the forehead and ‘made biscuits’ on my leg. 🥺
• alize (my black & white kitten) and i cuddled afterwards for quite a few hours, and she kissed the marks that mazikeen’s ‘biscuits’ left on my leg (they both have claws, so their ‘biscuits’ tend to hurt and leave marks lol). she also meowed at me a few times, and we played together. <3

i actually posted a short story i wrote on here a few years ago! it’s from 2016 so it’s, uh, quite old lmao, but it’s something. i attempted to flesh it out into a full story, but i struggled with it at the time so i just kept it as it was aha. i posted it here if you wanna read it. :’)
 
Also, caught another shiny Heatran in PoGo! :D Which was extra happy because I first did a raid where I fought a normal one that I didn't catch since they dodge/break free A LOT and the next raid one I fought was a shiny encounter and luckily I caught that one!
 
  • I love reading the posts in this thread, they make me happy :)
  • A new episode of my favorite Animal Crossing podcast came out yesterday so I listened to that
  • I'm having a cheese quesadilla for dinner tonight
  • The stuff I ordered on Amazon shipped today and should be here by Friday
  • I'm hopefully going to the store tomorrow to pick up some stuff I need
  • I started watching the show Lucifer and am really enjoying it so far
  • I have some time to read and play games tonight
 
two more plushies coming soon, one of them is coming from Europe and it just departed from Belgium yesterday, on track to arrive in about a week and a half to three weeks from now. the other one was just dropped off at a post office in CA so I expect it'll be here in about a week. so excited for both of them!!

also I've been pretty successful in selling some of my old stuff on Mercari, just sold an extra gamecube controller that needs a new joystick base today. it's been taking up space anyways so I'm glad someone bought it. and I have like 7 people eyeing the two plushies I listed yesterday so hopefully someone buys them 👀
 
Today I'm happy because:

- I made it through work today and got everything done that was required of me.
- I got to leave work early for a massage therapy appointment.
- I finally got my niece and nephew's Christmas presents shipped today. That's one less thing for me to worry about.
- I have an eye doctor appointment tomorrow. I excited to pick out some new glasses.
- The weather was decent today, much better than the below freezing temperatures of the past few days.
- A Megadeth song came on the radio while I was driving home this evening. They're one of my favorite bands and even though I own most of their albums, hearing one of their songs randomly put me in a good mood.
 
☾ I got to overhear a conversation between two of the neighborhood cats this morning. 😭 It was so cute!!
☾ I finally listened to the Code: Realize Haunted House Adventure drama CD! I didn't understand everything, but I was able to follow along with the gist of things, and I still really enjoyed it!
☾ Spent the evening watching Youtube and re-watching Kimi ni Todoke with my mom! We also took turns playing Fall Guys, and that was a lot of fun too!
☾ Also super excited about new Shaman King episodes coming out on Netflix tomorrow!! ^^
