Are you happy?Follow

Because I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and, doggonit, people like me!

I stopped being a push over at work, got my groove back and made a grown man cry before I made him quit, dominance reasserted I have to deal with remarkably less bullsh'it.

Applied for an office position in some giant insurance corporation, cleared the first hurdle of logic questions and jump through the hoop type *****, did the first interview with HR and provided references, got a call back and did an interview with the department heads which I hope went well because I got a call back the same day, I find out today /crossfingers. Just got a phonecall while typing the post I got the job /woot

Other than that the drive to turn the apartment into more than a bachelor pad moves forward. Been doing a little bit terms of working out have had pleasant results, flirting with a nice french canadian girl, raiding 2-3 nights a week in WoW and just plain enjoying myself

Meanwhile the petty part of me is rejoicing in the fact that my ex's dreams of a greener pastures in Ottawa have fallen apart. She is working a minimum wage job still, can't break into her desired field of working with autistic children.

Good times

Yep. Not satisfied - I still chide myself with the things left undone so far - but happy, yes.

Yeah, but at least she got rid of that loser boyfriend!

Ditto.

I guarantee it!

Oh come on. You practically begged me to.

Things could always be better, but they could always be much much worse. I have natural luck that always gets me out of things fairly unscathed whereas others would've taken a beating. I'm happy, but never completely satisfied, but given the alternatives, I wouldn't change a thing.

I've accepted the fact that I will never climb to the summit of Mt. Everest.

Fortunately today's technology lets me live the experience nearly first hand, however vicariously, from the 20.9% O2 atmosphere of my home.

I have to say that I have been content with my life and I experience lots of flashes of happiness.

I said mostly because I just got my first real job, in fact just put the acceptance letter in the mail box. But I'm unhappy because I'm in the slow process of breaking up with my boyfriend of five years and being alone for...well the first time ever scares the **** out of me!

Also, breakups are like band-aids. You aren't doing anyone any favors if you drag it out. The sooner it's over, the sooner you move on.

I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye's too good a word, gal
So I'll just say fare thee well
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right

Sounds like someone needs a cool vacation.

Myself, I'm pretty happy. Could be better, could be a hell of a lot worse.

I'd be happier if I was getting laid on a regular basis.

I'm not saying being single again is a bad thing mind you, but the whole "getting laid" thing requires more work.

I hate to be sappy, but I think I can finally say I've never been happier. Great husband, great kids, I'm busy and rarely have time to be bored let alone get on the computer during the days. I have a wonderful place to live with lots to do and places to go. Sick is working from home and much happier. Family dinners every night, something I once never thought would happen. I get to bother Tare almost on a daily basis now. Oh, and did I mention its still not even cold enough to contemplate winter clothes?

Yup, I'm pretty damn happy.

I picked mostly. I have a decent jobs, nice appartment, etc. Little more stress than i would like right now due to missing people who have yet to be rehired at work, but i'll manage. That and the whole no girlfriend thing. But i'm an optimist so thats ok!
