Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudel.

After some discussion [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 and I have decided we're vetoing this month. (Did I not tell you, Q? Executive decision, baby!)

So, while we await the changing of the tide/moon/karma and the proliferation of male!skating!slash (don't front I know y'all are gonna turn this stuff out), I thought to myself, "Self, all is not flaming poo and Sarah Palin. There must be some things that make you happy."

So, this post is to talk about happy things.

Jeff Buckley bootlegs make me happy. So do puppies. Christina Hendricks (shocking). Really anthemic work out music (feel free to share if you've got some!). Finding new artists. Quality public transportation. Disney movies make me happy (except for, like, Snow White which freaked me out in my formative years). Old movies with Marilyn Monroe or Paul Newman. Musicals. Double whammy of The Daily Show and Colbert Report. My guitar. Bacon. Good stories fanfic or pro. Books.

I could go on all day. And I possibly will, but now it's your turn, we all know what pisses us off, but what makes you happy? Is it a story? A song? A photo? An old shirt? A movie?

I bet you'll feel better just talking about it!

PORNSWAT. Panera's cinnamon bagels. Icy cold water. Warm socks and slippers. Monkeys. The smell of stuff baking - breads, cookies, whatevers. The way the light sparkles off my ring when I get it cleaned. Hearing my kidlet read to me. Email from my friends. Jane Russell. Rosalind Russell. Rosemary Clooney. Smart, snappy dialogue in old movies. The warm powdery smell of baby skin. Having my hair petted. Carnations. Puns. Tight, one-shaped hugs that make you feel surrounded and loved. Laughing with friends. Sleeping in. Banter. Kissing. Hot boys who are also complete dorks.
