Freaky Friday
This is what today feels like:
Only not in an entertaining way. Somehow, I managed to get almost an hour behind. I don't know how it happened. I didn't do anything any differently than I normally do, but I got a horrible jolt (like my heart had just fallen, not to my stomach, but to my feet) when I looked at the time expecting to see 2:00 a.m. and see 3:00 a.m. instead. Somehow I lost an entire hour of the night. Did I black out? How do I know if I blacked out? It's not like I can remember it. But, luckily, being the professional that I am, I still got all my daily duties finished by 4:00 a.m. Oh, and guess what?! The last Wednesday of this month I will be writing a guest blog for Christina in Wonderland about a day in the life of an overnight producer. So look for the link to that on March 31!
Anyway, I've been given an award - twice. Once by Christina and once by Gnetch. So I guess that means I should probably actually participate to some degree. And since I didn't have time to develop what I really wanted to talk about today thanks to my missing hour, I've got the perfect excuse.
I've been bequeathed the Happy 101 award.
Here are the rules:
1. Thank the person/people who gave it to you.
2. List the things that make you happy.
3. Tag people.
Well, I've already told you who gave me the awards, so to Christina and Gnetch THANK YOU. I really do enjoy reading what you guys write.
Things That Make Me Happy
- Mountain Dew
- My pineapple-scented post-it notes
(although I just tried to smell them and they don't really smell like Costa Rica anymore) - Crossing things off my to-do list
(it really is one of life's greatest joys) - Getting a "Good/Clean Shows" discrepancy report
- Blogs
- Big sunglasses
- Falling asleep in Chris's arms
(i'm allowed to be mushy sometimes) - Food
- Giraffes
(even though they're gay) - Laughing
- My wonderful friends
And the list could go on and on 'cause I'm generally a happy person. The littlest of things that other people wouldn't even blink at make me smile. I think we all rely on other people or things to determine our happiness, though. We have control over our happiness. Don't believe me? Click HERE.
Oh, and I'm not tagging people. 'Cause I gotta post stories to the web. Grr.
UPDATE:
Well, I posted to the web, then had a crisis with the rundown. And was actually pretty terrified there wouldn't be a show this morning. Plus, for whatever reason blogger wouldn't let me post the first time around so I had to copy, paste and reformat my entire post. So leave me comments to help me believe it was worth all that.

WooHoo! Things that make people happy!
ReplyDeleteAnd wooHoo for shameless self-promotion.
And, yes, it was worth all of that, because I love you.
Maybe I'm an idiot, but how did I self-promote? Am I an unconscious self-promoter?!?!
ReplyDeleteOh, wait. The links to former posts. Duh. Haha. I am an idiot.
And, I just noticed that my bullet points are all jacked up. I wonder why they decided they didn't want to be centered like their points. It's a bullet-point revolt apparently. Perfect.
