the small things in life

After hearing that my blog is a bit of a downer and quite overwhelming I decided to lighten it up a bit. Especially after that last post. Just so you know I am not on the verge of killing myself (or someone else for that matter) here are some of the small things that have brightened my day!

I finally learned how to spell the word necessary without using spell check. Or at least at this point I can spell it close enough to the actual spelling so spell check will give me some options. So that's nice. Nothing worse than having spell check not even be able to recognize a word you wrote. Now if I could only get unfortunately and definitely down I would really have a reason to celebrate.

The Hale and Hearty Soup in my office building has brought back the creamy chicken with rice. Delicious.

I am wearing brown socks, which for whatever reason makes me happy. They don't come up high enough for these boots though, and have been sliding down all day long. I knew this would happen. Why do I always insist on making my life more complicated than necessary (see I really can spell it!)? I knew that I would spend the entire day pulling them up, yet I still decided to wear them. Why? Because I like the color brown and I wanted to wear brown socks. I can't even see my socks so what does it matter what color they are? Oh I don't know.

I get free car home from the Christmas party tomorrow night and maybe I will walk away with a prize. Let's all cross our fingers that I win some extra vacation days and not that $15 gift certificate to Au Bon Pain they have every year.

I don't think I caught anything from the homeless man who pushed me off the corner of Broadway and Houston the other night. That's good.

Jill, the lady from the mailroom, is finally feeling better.

My Ipod made wonderful musical selections for me on my way to work this morning.

Marge hasn't even attempted conversation today which is always very nice.

As of this morning google stock is at $409.90!

As Nate pointed out I can always take solace in the fact that he will always have a better job than me. So that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

Tomorrow is Friday.

And the most important thing that put a smile on my face is that although I know there are many doubters out there, the Eagles still have not been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs! E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!!!!

I had better end this post now because my boss is asking me to track down his PS2. It was broken. He sent it to someone named Louis in Phoenix a couple of weeks ago...he thinks. That's all I know. Anyway he wants to know when he is getting it back. That should be fun.
