A Challenge for every TFP'r
I want us to try to do something good. I see so much negativity (mostly from my own posts) that I'm thinking I either need to see some good things someone can say or existing is just a waste.
So, everyone who posts.. say one positive thing about your day. everyday you can. have the best day ever? explain. did your day suck but damn that glass of coffee was good tell us. So, can you guys do it? Post a single positive note for your day? |

I did nothing today. I didn't have to go anywhere, see anyone. Nothing.
I cleaned a bit, but was mostly just lazy. I could, because Mrs. Tinfoil was a couple towns away with her friends. Ahh... a day to myself.

I found out yesterday my boss wants to send me to school for a year on the company's (non-profit organization's) dollar, while keeping me on part time and finishing my apprenticeship. He should be able to get me some unemployment insurance too.
I've been on cloud nine since I found this out since I've had problems blanacing a full time job and full time school before, not to mention trying to scrape up money for school, it's the biggest break I've gotten in my life. |

This morning I woke up with a lovely dream involving me having jungle fever. I also went outside while it was nice and talked to my mom.

Today I got to see a movie with my favorite actress(Angelina Jolie) of all time at the famous Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
I also participated in one of the most uplifting posts I've seen. Thanks, Z.

...but that's not even the start of it... The day became the best day EVER when I got a call from my friend Steve. Steve had been my best friend since elementary school, but I hadn't really seen him since high school... he went to college two years early and did really well for himself. He's now a distributor for Carrier air conditioning (a job that he got partially through his uncle but mostly through working his ass off)... he gets stores to outbid other stores in advance sales, that kind of thing. So anyway, word got around to him that my fiancee was pregnant and that I was stuck in a job that I was getting away with murder at, but wouldn't be for long. Turns out, he had an open position beneath him, and he offered it to me. I didn't hesitate in accepting the offer for a second. There are so many plusses to it that it will be hard to name them all. The major ones are REALLY major though. One of them is that I'll be working for a great friend of mine. I have hated every supervisor I've had at my current job, so this is a huge plus. Another is that my pay could potentially be DOUBLED at this job. Another on top of that is that I don't need all that much experience... Steve says that I can pretty much be trained on-the-job, the only reason that people with business majors get this job is that it looks good on the resumee. The undeniable best part of it, however, is this: most of the time this job is run over the phone, so except for the occasional meeting and even less frequent business trip, I can work from home. This is just one of the greatest things that's ever happened to me... instead of working at a lousy job during the day at UPS, I can work at a much less-lousy (apparently) job at home and watch the baby. I'm absolutely ecstatic... after this I swear I'd take a bullet for Steve. He is just a godlike figure to me now. And to top it all off, I saw Motorhead, Dio, and IRON MAIDEN tonight. In...fucking...credible show... and in-fucking-credible way to end a perfect day.

I got a wonderful card out of the blue from my sister I haven't seen in a year congratulating me on my 'future' wedding. I got my first credit card to build credit (and i know i won't overdue it like 90% of humans because i am anal about money). i got a promotion and am in training and my trainee is awesome. i am having canned spaguetti right now with the jumbo meatballs that i like.

I went down to the beach with my boy and my best friends and their kids.
It's the middle of winter but not a cloud in the sky and warm to boot. My team won the footy and life is fuckin great. Now I am here and it don't get much better.

I dont' generally go around telling of my good deeds.. as for my life tho? as much as a day might suck, I strive to live a happy life... So I could probably daily post a lot of junk (If I can remember it all).. As for now, I'm about to sleep, that alone is cool.
Whats positive? I got 4th twice in lazer tag, I achieved a 62.5% accuracy, 6th in the solo game.. I had over 5 people out to get me(big bonus in any FPS.. especially the real life games ) That was positive Showing how good you are points you out... which makes for a conversation starter, which leads to making more friends!

Today I went to a pretty cool party for a friend of mine, and my girlfriend was there, which is always good.
It was good.

It is a beautiful, sunny warm day and I have no obligations. My chores are done, I have no appointments, I can do anything I want. I have a home, there are flowers in a bowl on the table, and I just drank a delicious cup of jasmine tea my in-laws brought back from China. I am blessed in so many ways, to have been born where and when and who I was.

Today, for the first time, my in-laws invited me to come with them to meet their friends. (They've been my in-laws for about 3 weeks now...)
That was cool. It means I'm really part of the family. And at the end of the dinner, my father-in-laws friend gave me 2 thumbs up. He didn't know I noticed, because he spoke Chinese, but it's a real good feeling when you know you've been accepted 100 percent.

I spent most of the weekend with my 3 grandchildren (and their parents) AND I found out that they will be coming together again next weekend.
It doesn't get much better than that.
