I just found a whole bag of Haribo under my bed.

:)

Can you beat this moment of happiness?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

ordering une femme infidele of amazon for 7 quid or something. It was twenty last week. glad I waited.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I didn't know Amazon sold perfume.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Oh no. That's why it was so cheap. I would cancel, but my order's been "scent"... ahahahaa

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

That's a terrible joke - I request a taxi for you - lie there in the road and wait for it to put you out of your misery.

Nothing good has happened to me today or indeed this week.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Well everything is gonna seem dull compared to the excitement of last Saturday.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

i'm going to see napoleon IIIrd tonight in my local, which should be quite fun.

other than that, it's been a shit week. i feel your pain patricide.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I can't believe I missed that.

Best thing of my day: the realisation that Wrightylew hates me now! Hooray!

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Best Thing: I got replies to two jobs I applied for ages ago!

Worst Thing: The realisation that both were rejections. bah. humbug.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Yes last saturday I watched paint dry, when it was all dry - it was beige by the way - i did a small celebratory dance that involved half an air punch and a semi twirl. It was very exciting aswell - the taxi says it'll be 5 minutes but really means 10.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Manchester sounds boring.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I doodled notes in the Guardian to ammuse my housemates.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Surely that's the best thing to happen to your housemates? I think you need to think of another one.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Well I enjoyed the doodling more than I enjoyed the reading of said Guardian. And other than that I was burning CDs all day.

I had a pasty for lunch, pork and apple. That was nice. I saw my old friend Al McAl whom I've not seen in a while, which was also nice, then I bumped into my brother and had a chat, and I also saw my Mam for a bit.

But today was all about the doodling really.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Absolutely nothing at all. Oh, I managed to escape the rain at lunchtime. Let's hope my luck continues when I leave work, eh?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Michael Viner's Bongo Rock: the incredible story of the Bongo Rock Band was finally delivered. 4 MONTHS! its the one with apache on it... A moment of extreme joy.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I found out Amazon sells perfume. Now I can get my Mum and my step-dads Christmas presents from there. Zonino!

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Finding out my girlfriend is going to be here to help me through a tough weekend.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

It was Pay Day. Yay.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I got made poet laureate by bobbygeorge

I (think) I amused some people on the limerick thread

And I had a conversation with a bird
not a lady - a big Hooded Crow/Jackdaw thingy that was sitting on top of a car near my house and screaming at all the passers by in a scarey 'caaaww' edgar allan poe kind of way.
It was a bit surreal actually as I was walking along reading Aleister Crowley's 777 and this crow was definately some kind of evil spirit so I 'caaawwwed' back at him a couple of times and he 'caaaawed' in reply - This exchange went on for about three minutes before he gave up and flew away - people were actually staring and watching this little exchange.

Other than that - every time I look out of my window at the sunny stockholm autumn evening I am full hearted with joy at the beauty of nature - I should take a picture and put it on my profile - it's awesome

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Fuck me. Are you on any medication? How does one read whilst walking?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

?
Simple - you focus on the page - your peripheral vision and your other senses keep you out of harms way

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Oh - and I took a pic from my balcony about ten minutes ago and posted it on my profile - doesn't really do it justice but it's so lovely I thought I'd share

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

You amused me. And not in the bad pity kind of amusement you had me chuckling for a good 10 minutes.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

this makes me happy mr_e

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I finished work!

Monday brings with it the start of uni, my dissertation and probably not much DiS :(

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I do indeed rule

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

That does indeed grant you ruler status.
*bows humbly*

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Well that means i rule because I've had it since last Christmas :-)

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

*suffocates on humble pie*

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

went to a sweet shop and discovered new and exciting things to try... mmmmm..

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Well i did my good deed for the day. A 12 (maybe 13/14) year old asked me to buy him some fags....and i did. Don't worry i lectured him after



Wasn't completely selfless though, i did want one in return.

Also...got my Melvins and Noxagt tickets which im chuffed about.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Well today is my birthday. I got some nice cards and a digital camera (will need to change the profile pic soon) and going out to a nice Mexican restuarant with some friends later.

btw does anyone know why it is tradition in offices to buy cakes or sweets etc for the whole office?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

happy birthday Aiden78!!!

Don't change the pic - I like your Ayers Rock hat. Or as I should really say .... <does quick google search> .... "I like your Uluru hat".

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Thankyou very much. For some reason it feels really weird being 27.

But i've had the same pic since I first set the profile up about a year ago. plus now I've got the camera I can experiment a bit more :-)

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Happy birthday !

Exactly how many people on DiS have their birthday today ?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

The day is nearly over.
I'm drinking a very fine bottle of white wine.
I beat you !

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I'm about sit down to watch all four "Of The Dead Films" with a bottle of vodka....my day could not get any better...then I am going out to a rock club to get even drunker...

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

How long are the films if at 8 you are going to watch four then go to a club?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

i cnananppt remeneber but iam pised as a lark

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Surprise, Surprise...

;-)

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I'll give you 1 guess! ;-)

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Well if that is his answer then I think it must be wrong because the other thread is dated 30th September and this post is dated 1st October.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

"The day is nearly over.
I'm drinking a very fine bottle of white wine.
I beat you !"

No actually you didn't because... about an hour after finding the bag of Haribo, i also found a full bar (unopened) of mint aero. And i mean a big bar.

Now thats happiness.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Was that under your bed as well?

I'm starting to think that theres some sort of sweet shop under your bed!!

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

can i come live under your bed? it sounds yummy.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Hahaha.

Yeh it was under my bed... My bed is a mysterious place.

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

What!

Is your room like willy wonka's chocolate factory?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

I had to work today, at a conference that I organised. I got up at 6:30. But now I am home with a beer and I don't have to be in work until Monday afternoon.

Hurrah!

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

i had to cut down trees in my garden. it was not fun. but its ok now, cos i have alcohol and i'm happy!

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Were these trees like 50 year old well established oaks or new young uns?

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...

Re: Best thing to happen to you today...
