Anything good happen to you today?
I haven't had a day like this in a long time. 
I finally got my cable modem installed this morning, after 4 visits from the cable guys. They didn't have the "return" hooked up for my street yet, whatever that is. Dial up can now officially kiss my butt.
I also found a $20 bill in some old jeans. Think I'll buy a case of beer tonight. Nice.
I had a woman a few years younger than me ask me out. Niiiice. Oh, I'm married. I had to tell her that I couldn't... at least not in public.
I also told a customer to get out of my office. That was fun. The guy was a complete butt-wad, argued me on everything that came up, and finally insulted someone in my family. Uh, you're gone. "Get out of this office or I will remove you" was the stern, monotone line that ended our conversation. Fancy that, I still have testicles! Haven't had the need to check for a while.
Other than the little "incident", I also had a kick ass day at work. Haven't had a day like this in a long time. Thought I'd share.

I'm trying to burn myself under the sun.
3 days of sun this year... 0 last year..
next week the thing's are going to get better...
i'm gonna switch off my brainb right now..
I went downstairs to check the mail, and rode down the elevator with this woman who lives on my floor. I have no idea why, but we laughed the whole way down over how early it is (11am), how much the earlyness sucks, and how I seem to have forgotten my shoes.
heh, I'm still laughing.... as long as I don't sober up, today is going to kick ass...
<strong> and how I seem to have forgotten my shoes.</strong><hr></blockquote>
fantastic.
i've a similar one.
HAS ANYONE SEEN MY PANTS?
I did not wake up in my flat, but in a loft in Stoke Newington in east London. I had been left on my own. There was a huge door open onto this sort of shared courtyard and beautiful August sunshine streaming in; blue skies, fluffy clouds - sometimes life in the city can be GREAT.
I practised my martial arts on the bare boards, sort of tired, hungover, a bit hyper, but basically very happy, and I did this naked. I don't make a habit of this either, understand. I was having a GOOD morning.
So this girl's flatmates sleep on a ledge behind a green curtain in the same room. I met them for the first time two days ago.
When I emerged dressed, they were up. "Good morning Idris", they said. "Good morning!" I replied.
They're French and they didn't give a stuff.
Me too!
A cop stopped me for rolling a stop. I misplaced my insurance card. He let me off and was nice about the whole thing, no stern condescending BS, just matter fact, very polite. Hope he has a great day.
Then I got to work/school and I laid the smack down on a couple of Reform Party a$h-wipes. Also highly gratifying, but probably not so wise in lieu of their position. Aww-heck, the liberal party gives better patronage anyway.

Holy shit! Who asked you and where can I find them?!?!?!?!?!??!
Then, just when I thought I was about ready to retire from this stupid game, this 'girl' for sake of anonymity calls me up, I go over to her place, and, well, now I'm back here and I feel like a million bucks
For a brief period of time, I had lost track of my pants, but at least I know who took them this time!
Saturday morning, it was still bad. I went to work, and I worked until 4. But then I finished, and I'm done with that job for the rest of summer. Next week I go to college.
I got home and had some yummy bread and watched Pirates of Silicon Valley and two episodes of The Fall And Rise Of Reginald Perrin.
Now it's 3:30 AM where I am Sunday morning. I think I'll shut down the computer soon and read a little.
Not the best day, but not the worst. Playing Halo with seven people over an XBox network was pretty sweet. Too bad I couldn't stay longer.
I'm traveling from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport to Dublin and there's a casino just after customs, had an hour left and decided to play on one of these slot machines (not sure if that's the right word)......
WON ?1000 !!!! :eek:
GREAT DAY!!!!!

Was out in a pool hall and met up with friends of friends who also had a couple along. He was a bit awkward, couldnt really place him and was dating this pretty outgoing cutesy girl. After a few drinks we started talking and when the girl left he asked me pretty out of the blue "shes great in bed, you should give her a try! I arrange these things all the time and I think she kinda fancies you too!" at which point I thought he was a pimp and I just kinda wanted to leave NOW. But he probably saw my discomfort and said "oh yeah, its great stuff being in the "artistic nudity" business". I could see the quotes hanging in the air as he said that. I curteously gave him a sideways smile not sure if he was taking the piss since we had a few drinks or was serious. The girl came back all giddy and the guy asked her as soon as she got back "so, whatcha think? I think he would be great with you or Jessie" Still with a giddy smileshe looked me over and smiled more and said "oh yeah, that WOULD be fun. When did you think of rolling?".
I thought I was in a movie or some parallel dimension. I hadnt said a word and these two characters were already setting me up for an "artistic nude" session.
At that point I thought everything was a tad too bizarre and shook the Twighlight Zone feeling off and just went with the game. To make a long thing short, I asked a few questions to seem interested and then got myself out of the situation by statiing that I would definetly think about it I would get in contact with our mutual friends if I made decision.
The world certainly is an interesting place.

one more day of sun and plenty of it.. <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />
summer is finished <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />

so i should maybe change the hemisphere...
first of all my girl told me to wear my pinstripe, white shirt and yellow tie. but i wanted to go more casual (bright dockers, white shirt with a v-neck,brown shoes). she told me how unresistible i looked in the pinstripe - so i gave in.
after the hol "yes i will"-stuff we all drove to this castle with a hugh park and loads of artwork , stuffed animals, weapons etc from the 1600's and so.
after hanging around there and trying not to get drunk we all drove to this fancy restaurant where we wined and dined 'till 2 o'clock in the morning. the people who run the place had this big dog and everytime i got outside to have a smoke i played with him.
to top it of: in the morning i got woken up by my girl to make love.
ahhhhh
"some days are better then others" (u2)
i had a nightmare. I got married... i don't remember with whom though
:eek:
