Name one good thing that happened to you today.

Today has been pretty rough thus far, primarily from a horrible night's sleep, but I've managed to get plenty of things done in a short amount of time which feels good.
 
Yesterday I was in a horrible mood all day from lack of sleep and work frustrations. But, I came home to a delicious meal cooked by Deadly Cyclone and cuddles from my kitten. It's the little things most days. =)

I'm almost done with a book project I started back at the end of June. About a weeks worth of work left and seeing it materialize makes me so happy. It will be my first for sale product ever and even though I'm a little nervous about the reception, I put a ton of work into it.

This is a great thread idea btw, I do this every night before I go to bed, but instead of naming one good thing, I name three. It really helps to keep you positive and grateful.
 
Went on a first date with a girl I met on a dating site. Went really well, ended up kissing lots. Gonna meet again this weekend.

I think I need start doing that. I don't have a negative outlook on life, but I feel it'd do wonders for keeping my stress levels in check.
 
Today is my day off from the gym. I really needed it, too, because I've been exhausted lately. Probably going to spend that extra time sleeping. Also, my weekend starts tonight!

I do this too. I actually write the 3 things down in a journal so I can go back through for reminders when I need it. I find it really helps me to focus on the brighter side of things instead of all the gloom.
 
That's a seriously cute cat, Maxcriden!

I just made celeciac and thyme soup and it's gorgeous. Going to serve it with crisp pancetta on top and some nice bread.
 
my mom bought me a Royals ALCS champs shirt that i will wear until the end of the World Series

she's seriously the best
 
What a refreshing thread. :)

Nothing special happened today but my girlfriend bought me a very awesome watch from Michael Kor's last night. Pretty stoked.
 
I had lunch with one of my best friends and he paid the bill. :D He also gave me a ride. And picked me up. Lol I feel like a hobo friend, but still. It was great!
 
I kept my mom busy and laughing the best I could so I that she didn't lock in on our very good family friend dying this morning. I knew she was going to have a lot of grieving and tears at work, so I tried to make sure any eulogizing was upbeat or happen.
 
Talking to a pal at university about a lecture I didn't go to yesterday. He said "well, that lecture...", I interrupted him with "yeah, I didn't go, I have other classes during the same hours*", to which he replied:

"Yeah, I know 'casue I wanted to sit with you".

:D!

I mean, I'm not 14 anymore and don't have to worry if maybe everyone hates me (which was never actually the case in my life, no matter how scared of that I always was), but little moments like that can really make one's day. We're not great friends or anything, but this guy actually actively WANTED to sit with me! Awesome! :)

*I'm lazy
 
omg and just now i got a call about a job interview with Cerner tomorrow morning

holy shit i'm freaking out a bit
 
My best friend had a baby. Today.

It seems everything was OK. Got the pictures. Im pretty happy about it.

And my cousin is also pregnant, but this news i got on sunday
 
Sold a relatively large portion of my stock portfolio to buy an apartment.

Plus this weekend looks to be another good one. On top of life at the moment!
 
Today I learned a glitch for my speedrun and sort of have it down. It's enough to make me happy anyways since it's the hardest glitch in the game.

Thanks! My Amazon rank rose 120,000 places at one point, so surely I've sold at least 3 copies there. You'll see me on the best-seller list for sure. ;)

It's definitely hard as a new author/ebook, though. When you're ready for publish yours, come to the Writing Thread and we'll give you all the things we've learned from our battles for eyeballs on Amazon.

And congrats on your glitch. I feel really old saying this, but I too remember the thrill of being able to ply a glitch to my advantage in
Mario Brothers.
;_;

What's your book called? :D I'm always looking for new things to read.

Edit: On topic: I... Had a hot pastrami sandwich. It was pretty good.

It's called Dead Endings!

It's a modern ghost story set in New York with plenty of murder, mystery, and appropriately morbid jokes. It actually exists because of the GAF NaNoWriMo thread. I wrote it for that and a publisher liked it enough to pick it up. :) I even got assigned a professional artist to do illustrations for every chapter plus all of the bonus stuff.

The art is amazing, no lie.
