I've been really happy lately. I've made good money at work, I've had time to pursue art projects, and my burlesque show was a huge success. I'm able to save money for winter travel, and my brother comes home from afghanistan in january; the month of my bday. that's going to be the best birthday present ever, even though I don't celebrate my birthday.
what is making you happy lately?
We're starting to put together a good team for music and burlesque performances. I'm really excited about next year. It's been hard. We've made mistakes. We're to that point of seeing the vast horizon. I'm especially excited for the performers, but we're all having a great time. It's very spontaneous and eclectic. Good people. :thumb:Quote:

Getting promoted, having some very awesome close friends, having my fiance move out to Cleveland next week and moving into my own place. Ive never been happier.
and one more thing: I scored a copy of wind in the willows; my favorite political satire for 5 bux.
I'm glad you guys are happy too.
it'll get better voldta; well I hope it does anyway for what its worth.
What Voldta said. I'm broke, lonely, and just being assrailed by life, and not in a good way.
i have started 2 new music projects with the Donkey Moses, both just the 2 of us so no issues with rehearsal time,1 accoustic and 1 electric.Also I just harvested the garden, all kinds of herb oil for winter and pickles!!! Work is hectic but prevelent and creative and with any luck if there is enough of it we finally get to go to Pittsburgh for winter vacation. And last but not least Halloween is coming and we are throwing a big bash @the castle that our primary band gets to play as long as we want. life is good, I wish I was a sponge so I could soak it in faster!
hang on BP sometimes it gets harder before a breakthrough.
I'm happy that I still have a job.
i finaly got a clean bill of health last week. i found the gal il probably marry some day and ive been doin realy good at work. somehow all these things goin right makes me nervous cause things arent usualy like this for me.
Oh I know..It's not like I'm depressed to drinking or anything or broke...I'm not even depressed...I just am existing day by day.Quote:

not sure if I'm happy, but I am content
very happy with the my latest recording project - I will share when it's finished tho I don't expect it to be for a month or so as I'm only doing it on the week-ends pretty much and even then in the (narrow) windows of time when I am not too pasted and can do the compositions justice. This particular project is just me doing... everything pretty much. I am playing drums, guitar, keyboards, bass, singing plus making up all the songs and lyrics. You gotta be happy with a project that's that intensely about yourself hehe.
yes I do need assistance from other humans during the recording process so I'll give them a credit (assistant production assistant's assistant or something hahaha). I am provided with free studio time at my convenience so I'm not fretting or rushing it
Got a new guitar and finishing a masters.
Actually, tell the truth, I just finished a painting and am finally set up to do art again. I have my drum set up and a cool hollowbody guitar and bass. I'm relearning guitar fast and have a nice comfortable out of the kit single roll at 130bpm, which considering I'm using a new grip and a new technique, ain't bad.
:yeeaaahh: summed it up nicelyQuote:

I bought a sweet pinball machine for myself. It's a Bram Strokers Dracula.
I think I am generally the happiest in life that I've ever been. Many gratifying creative projects, work is good, marriage (and accompanying benefits) is spectacular. My 30's have been the best decade so far. Things are definately moving forward. Not to say that everything is perfect (my car could be working for one thing) but the positivity of everything else overshadows the lousey stuff.
Happiness is fleeting. Just enjoy it and try not to think about the other shoe dropping.:)Quote:
