Wednesday Smiles

The high temp. tomorrow is supposed to be 73 degrees.  73.  I love this time of year.  Spring itself is something to smile about.

I hope you're all having fabulous weeks, but if not, I hope you can still dig up something that makes you smile. 

Be well!


I mostly post fannish things in this journal, but I think it's easy to forget that there is a real person behind the fic and the Bones commentary. Same goes for other people, of course. So I'd like to take a minute to acknowledge our humanity.

If you'd like to do so, please tell me something that made you smile this week, no matter how small. Could be the snuggle your dog gave you on Monday, the song you discovered on Tuesday, or the way your significant other smiled at you today. I've been posting these since last December. If you feel up to it, please respond—here, in your own journal, or elsewhere. Feel free to post more than one thing and/or respond to other comments.

Why am I doing this? Because I think it is far too easy to get caught up in the stresses, big and small, that we all experience. Being able to focus on one positive thing, however small, can give one a valuable sense of perspective.

Why Wednesday? I figure a little mid-week cheer can't hurt. :)

The birds are singing outside happily. Seeing as how it's gotten over 100 here, I've been wearing shirts and tank tops! School just has a month and a half left, and on Friday I'm going to Disneyland!

*We're supposed to be getting super weather at the end of the week here. Almost 80 they say.

*All the random posts from you in the past few days. It's good to hear from you in between the busyness of life.

*Bones overload. So many good episodes in such a short period of time has my head reeling, but I'm definitely smiling, too.

Thanks, sweetie. *hugs* It's been nice to have even a little time to write ANYTHING and post it. :)

And good weather and Bones are so smile-worthy!

BTW, who is that in your icon?

Weather here is crazy. One day is cold, the next is warmer. You end up not knowing how to dress up. Oh, Autumm.

Anyway, my smile...let me see...first that I don't have to d anything more than reading for my phylosophy and histry class at Uni tomorrow. Second...Bones! there's always a reason to smile with it!

is good to hear from you ;)

I feel for you: re the weather; we've also been having some up and down temperatures.

I'm glad you got a bit of a break at school. College is a lot of work!

is good to hear from you ;)

*hugs* Thank you. It's good to be here.

♥ Thanks, sweets! :D

The Wire is fantastic. I'll tell anyone who'll listen. *g* So glad you and D. got into it. It's a shame it's over now, though.

The comment fic meme's a blast; I've got to go over there and leave some feedback.

It's SUCH a shame.. we are having serious withdrawals! What can we watch next, hmm?! It's funny because it is finally being shown on terrestrial TV over here and the actors keep popping up all over different chat shows etc. Very strange!

So many smiles this week!
- Awesome Easter vacation seeing [livejournal.com profile] alias_jems and [livejournal.com profile] tempertemper77
- Back at uni where there are delicious milkshakes.
- COMMENT FIC MEME which TT has kindly pimped and which is hella fun.
- ADORABLE BABY PICTURES. I would be so unproductive if I was in a house with your daughter. I'd just stare and aww and cuddle all day. :)

It's so wonderful when LJ friends get to meet in person. I love that you've been able to do that with several folks. :)

Milkshakes = yum.

I totally agree that the meme IS hella fun. :D

Glad you like the pics. We've taken a lot of them. *g* And there is much cuddling here.

-Just after seeing Los Coronas in concert last Friday, I found out that they're coming here again next June.

-My bank told me a few days ago that I won tickets for the Spanish Championship of Formula 1 (which I hate and therefore will sell them) and two nights in a hotel in Barcelona next May 8-9-10. LOL So it seems I'm travelling to Barcelona then.

-I really enjoyed "The double death of the dearly departed".

Have a great week.

Yay for concerts! And it's so great that you won a trip to Barcelona. Have a wonderful time there in May. *hugs*
