Good day

[kilted exile]

Ok seeing as there is a rough day thread I thought I'd start a good day thread, you know equal opportunities and all that.
The last couple of days have been fantastic: The police arrested a couple of people for attacking my brother; I finally figured out my fluid mechanics course (incase you're interested it was this formula which annoyed me the most -
u = ptA + pB/t - it is used to calculate the absolute viscosity of a substance when using a canon-feske viscometer); I got a new digital camera (still love toys) and I finally got paid.

The police arrested a couple of people for attacking my brother....
Hooray!!!

[Jay]

That's good news! How's your brother doing now?

[imthefoolonthehill]

Hey, i like the idea of a good day thread...

I've had a pretty good week and a half... in fact, I think i'm feeling less depressed all the time.

...yep. Meloncholy seems to come in cycles.

Do you guys think meloncholy is a good or a bad feeling? Do you enjoy it?

[simon]

Sometimes melancholy is just self pity and being a selfish person I like it.

Hey guys I finally reached 1000.

[Jay]

Congrats, simon! :p

He is complaining about anything & everything.......this means he is feeling much better.

well, friday i was playing pool, two games with teams, won of which my teammate and I won, the other, (couldn't rememebr who, were were tied with each team having a ball on teh table and either I or my teammate shot in teh eight ball and subsequently lost) we played three more games of cuttrthroat as we had only three players left and I won all three, I can officially no longer say that I suck at pool becuase I was playing with people who said they were quite good... hey, maybe now i can stand a game iwth my own family, Never, ever been able to beat anyone in my family, especially my grandma (she;s also the best at poker)

The guy I talked about in the rough day thread is gone! he was fired yesterday and I just heard it so I am very happy!!!

[Stanislaw]

Thats awesome!

My good day...still waiting for it...., nope just kidding: I am buying a new comp. tommorw, it will be super cool!

[Helga]

thanks I am really happy about it. I just wish every day was like that one, now they just get worse and worse...this is for the rough day thread, I'll quit.

[Shea]

Today was going really bad, but I guess for suffering through it, my first Mythology test wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Everything kept interrupting my study today (grrr), but I was still able to answer every question with confidence! Whew!! Now I'll go relax!

[subterranean]

Yesterday was a very fine day..I talked on telephone with a friend of mine from Australia ..great to hear his voice from so far away :)

[Bongitybongbong]

The last few weeks for me were pretty good.

[shortysweetp]

i had fun yesterday. we went to a friends for the superbowl and had a great time. My 2 year old daughter got on the karoke machine and was singing that was so funny. the only bad thing that happened to me was that i was moving an iron (like u iron clothes with) and the water came out all over my hand and its still all red and icky. but the rest of the day made up for it :)

[Helga]

This day has been pretty good so far, although a woman I was doing a project for school with was driving me crazy, but when I got home my 10 month old niece was here and she is really cuet. Although when we had to change her diaper I remembered why I don't want children of my own! icky!

[shortysweetp]

helga once you have your own all that just seems to go away. believe me my daughter threw up all over me and all i was worried about was if she was ok. somehow all that icky stuff is no longer icky its just stuff that happens. my daughter makes everyday a good day for me

[Helga]

I know, and maybe my thoughts on this will change. I do understand this though, my dog throws up on me and jumps on my bed all wet and covered in sand, but he is just saying hi to me so I can't be mad at him. I just feel like this now, it will likely change.... sorry if I offended you

[shortysweetp]

oh no i was the same way before i had my daughter no offense taken what so ever

[Shea]

I agreed to take my neighbors kids to school the other morning, and the little one who has Down's syndrome had a stomach bug and threw up all over me. She's still one of the most loving and pleasant child to be around. I can hardly wait for my husband and I to have children.

There should be a rent-a-kid service for wanna be parents! :D So that they get a taste of what is waiting for them! j/k

I totally agree, hehe, I love kids but I also love peace and quiet and to be able to do whatever I want and to be able to walk out if I want to see someone without having to arange for a babysitter. Being able to set the stereo as loud as I want without waking anybody up.

But children are great I just don't want them in my life, at least not now.

my best friend has a daughter and she is 4 months old, when I first had her in my arms I knew she was a miracle and so precious.

Weird, quoting myself... anyway, I got a 96 on that exam and both my classes ended early today. :banana: too bad I keep procrastinating on this take home exam due tomorrow.


Helga, though I don't have any kids now, from what I understand, I think our main interests change once they arrive! ;)

[baddad]

congrats on the exam Shea...well done!!!

Yes, Sher, I agree, there should be a pool of kids used as a service. But the kids should be used to determine whether or not a person should be granted the blessing of being a parent. There should be a test afterward. No passee, no kiddeee. Or perhaps those that fail could be shot......

[Helga]

I think that is very true baddad, I think it is terrybul when all kinds of people can have kids and many of them abuse them and don't treat them in the way you should treat another person and definetly not your own child. You need a license to drive, have a gun and even to own a cafe.

I don't want kids because I think that when you bring another person to live in this world you are saying that you agree with it enough to put someone else into it. I don't think there is enough beauty in the world to be responsable for a child to live in.

[Shea]

But what if the child you would have had were the one to make it more beautiful for the rest of us?

[Helga]

I think we just have to take that chance.

[baddad]

But what if the child you would have had were the one to make it more beautiful for the rest of us?


Definately! It is through our children that we attempt to correct some of the ills of our world, teaching them in ways that differ slightly from the generations that have come before. This is how the world changes. Yesterday's lessons passed onto the next generation.......and so on....and so on.....

Through this system the future is bright...........................I gotta wear shades.......
