Wait, so you're started 5 weeks now... but you're going to smoke on the 20th?

Might as well keep on puffing in that case. Stopping now won't really help if you're gonna smoke then anyway.

Yay! I passed my lab!

I'm good for another month!!!

**Linkzelda** · 04-03-2012 08:12 PM

Even though I have a Chemistry Exam coming up in 1-2 hours, I can't wait for Alyzarin's return today!

She might come late at night, but I'm glad either way.

New York Strips for dinner today! I get so excited for meals. I remind myself of my yellow lab.

My good friend is funny. I just met him yesterday to return him his A3 file and we chatted for a few hours. Today is the first day he started work after graduation and when we chatted on MSN, he told me he hadn't seen me for a while. I thought for a while and told him, we just met yesterday. But he kept insisting we hadn't meet for a while. So I asked him, "You missed me?"

I'm happy because I remember good chunks of three different dreams this morning. My dream recall is finally improving again.

Different things work for different people, but personally if I let up on the Dream Journal, my recall just evaporates. I'm having trouble making it a constant habit, but I'm making progress, at least.

Finally finished my cladogram for Biology lab...spent the whole day, literally the whole dayyyyyyyy just working on it, and I know I did my best on it.

Biology can go SUCK IT, because I CONQUERED YOUR ASS.

Now to get as much sleep as I can, and just look forward to Friday.

**Kerkz** · 04-05-2012 08:22 AM

I'm happy because my brother and his gf have stopped fighting

That didn't sound too happy, Link.

I came over from the Rant, Rave and Complain thread just to see what happy things you were going to write down.

**Taffy** · 04-05-2012 02:49 PM

Spring break begins in a matter of hours. And my Spanish test was pushed back to the day we come back. Yesss.

**sefalik** · 04-05-2012 03:48 PM

Guess there was a reason two completely different people told me (out of the blue) that I should listen to Glassjaw. On the same day, even.

Cause damn... I can't stop listening to these guys!

Hey, Carrot, this might be a reason for Link to be happy right there! ^^^

Conquering ass makes a lot of people happy, I hear...

Oh trust me, I was happy. I tapped that Cladogram until it couldn't take anymore!

Oh yeah, you are right on target, Mistress Melanie.

**melanieb** · 04-05-2012 05:15 PM

Awesome!

**Carrot** · 04-05-2012 05:18 PM

I'm going to a park tomorrow! Haven't been to one of those for a long time! Nature, here I come!

**melanieb** · 04-05-2012 05:35 PM

You'd like it here, possibly.

I go to the park every day, and there is a very large one just down the hill, a ten-minute walk.

In this picture my home would be to the left, about a mile from this intersection. You can see a creek flowing into the river which splits the city.

This is another picture of the park in the middle of summer heat. You can see my old high school in the upper right corner.

And this is an aerial view of Barton Springs Pool, down the hill. (Note: it is totally legal to go topless here)

**sefalik** · 04-05-2012 05:57 PM

Cool! Are those shots just from google maps or something? I wonder what some nice overhead views of my area look like... I have the big Lehigh River real close (I like biking along it), and the Deleware's pretty close too.

I don't think it'd be as open looking here though. At least not where I live.

Mmmm Mom's key lime pie tastes great!

I found these pics using Google Image Search. They would normally be in the Pictures thread, but these make me Happy and Cheerful.

That open area is the Zilker soccer fields, used for the annual Kite Festival and the Austin City Limits Music Festival

Here is a view looking towards downtown.

A more recent photo than the one above

Here's one that shows a mall in the foreground that's a couple miles away from me, and downtown can be seen in the upper left, with the open area of the park just beneath the downtown buildings. We actually have a lot of trees and green space.
