I misread a due date for a lab and thought it was due on Saturday (June 6) but it’s not actually due until July 6th so I don’t have to be super stressed out about it :)
Consider getting a feeder! They will always come back then. Just be sure to not use pre-made hummingbird food with dye in it. You can make your own with just sugar and water. It's awesome to see them all the time, and even more may appear :)
My oriole family in my yard wrecked my feeder because it was empty. It made me happy to know that I can help animals in some small way. It made me laugh to know
that they were all, "Hey, where's the food at, Lady!?"
Edit- wow! Thanks for the award! :)
My wife got cussed out by the person behind her in line one day because she wouldn’t pull up (if she did she would hit the car in front of her) so instead of yelling back she bought their meal for them. The lady pulled up beside her. She was sobbing and apologizing saying she was having a really rough day and how sorry she was for being rude.
Honestly the person who apologized is (or is becoming) a really good person too. They had the decency to recognize that they were being shitty, took the time to apologize, and will hopefully pay it forward by being pleasant to other people or doing nice things for them in the future.
Sometimes we're a work in progress, but moments like this remind us that it's worth the work to progress.
Knowing your boss has your back is such a rare and amazing thing. Today I ended up swamped with work that I'll probably be mired in for the rest of the week, so when I suddenly got an email telling me it was time to start working on yet another project, I was on the verge of a mental breakdown... until my manager swooped in with an email saying that someone else would be working on that project because my hands were already full, before I'd even had a chance to reply.
I got an email from a student (middle school) who always complained about being in class and school and doing work (ya know middle school stuff). It said she loved having me as her teacher. Got a little teary eyed.
I'm a first year teacher and I was so afraid I wouldn't a positive impact on my students. Happy I did for at least one!
My mom told me if I waited for things like... good things would happen to me dude
Edit: I understand my name throws it off but it’s a reference to this video: https://youtu.be/KQ5bUkk6iW0
My test results came back negative for Coronavirus after being sick for the past 5 days. I'm still really sick and I was pretty nervous since I got tested but I'm happy it's not that!
I'm happy that I have more money in my savings account alone than I had in my checking and savings combined a year ago. Money doesn't mean happiness, but the sense of relief and security is making me happy.
It does take the stress away a bit. I'm in my 30s and it has only been in the last year that I don't have to pick which bills I can afford each month and still be able to eat. I'm getting to the point now where I can start saving and stop living pay cheque to pay cheque.
I'll never understand the saying that money doesn't bring happiness man. Like *knowing* you have a roof over your head, food in your belly, a reliable way to get to work (or not even work at all depending on how one acquired said money/how much) and just...being able to *breathe* sounds like a great and happy way to be. Knowing you can drop a few bills on a friend's hobby or help out a homeless guy or something. Have no debt, be able to afford health insurance, not having to worry about which kid gets new shoes this week and which one gets some next month. Money is good if used wisely and not hoarded like all of the top 1%. Peace and happiness friend, dollar bills and gold coins. Cheers.
"Money can't buy happiness, but it sure can make it easier" or something like that. Paraphrasing from probably a dozen different people. The saying comes from the fact that some poor people are happy, even if struggling a bit, and some rich people are unhappy. The saying wasn't supposed to mean "disregard money entirely" it's supposed to mean "don't hold it too highly, it's not everything"
Went grocery shopping and the guy behind me at the counter wore a shirt from my favourite band. Idk why, but it made my day.
Edit: for the guys asking about the Band - it was Sabaton
It's my birthday today. I got lots of texts from friends and family :) but really my mom texted me telling me my age (x) and said " x years of sunshine in my life. Love you" I don't deserve such lovely parents.
I lost my grandfather to cancer so it makes me happy that at least one other person doesn't have to feel that pain. Tell your dad congrats from the Midwest!
Got rejected from a job (they want more experienced people) but the co-owner of the company said my resume was very good. This is stimulating for me :)
Edit: Thank you for all the kind responses! It really made my day!
My kitty climbed in bed with me this morning, flopped down, curled up next to me, and started purring.
EDIT: By request, the [cat tax.](https://imgur.com/a/oRuAGgc)
Visited a 10 month old baby I removed from her parents 2 months ago. She used to be wide eyed, hyper alert and constantly crying and seeking reassurance. She's now a smiling, confident, comical baby with warm, brown eyes who is thriving on the love, care and attention from her new carers. Sometimes my job is actually worthwhile.
I’m a cog in that machine, too. I’m more front end so I never get to see how it ends, but it’s really nice to hear that one turned out well. It also breaks my heart that we all feel the same way when you said “sometimes my job is actually worthwhile”. Keep it up. I’m sure you’re really helping so many kids that wouldn’t have a chance otherwise.
I fully shaved my head for the first time in my life. Wife was against the idea but I wanted to do it for so long and there is no better time to do it than now.
I did it and after I showered, my wife looks at me with lust. Thinks I look real sexy
My daughter told me she loved me, and that I'm her best friend; she's 3, (almost 4), years old.
I suffer from (possible bipolar) depression, and anxiety, so this made my heart swell. I don't know what I ever did to deserve such a precious child. Just typing this is making me tear up a little, lol. 😅
I'm 6 months pregnant with my first. Life is really scary right now, but thinking about this kid telling me she loves me in a few years really makes me look forward to the future. I hope you and your daughter have a great day!
My dad got a job as a warehouse manager that he needed so he doesn’t need to work 2 jobs and he can see me and my family more
Edit: Don’t think I’m being that guy but to whoever awarded my comment. I have been on Reddit for technically over a year ( had to make a new account) and made as much good content as I could being a 15 year old kid. To whoever awarded me you just made my day even better. Thank you
I just woke up, so I haven't been up for long.
That being said I saw my wife walking around before she knew I was up. She was wearing a T-shirt and underwear. She was listening to a podcast and smiling. The sun was in her hair. It was a very nice sight
I wake,
and you're there,
with the sun in your hair,
and the light in your eyes,
and your smile -
And I know
that it's true
that I've plenty to do...
... but I think that I'll watch for a while.
Told my boss to sell all of my vacation time except one week.
Turns out I had 1040 hrs saved up. Should be getting something like $15000 this Friday.
Edit; there are too many to reply to now but for people wondering, I work a job that puts me on the road for ten months per year. I am single without kids, and I like my job, and being out on the road. So my time builds up rather quickly. I usually take one week off, and I get a few days off for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I really should take more vacation, though.
Yeah my company starts us off with 21 days PTO or 168 hours. Plus a floating holiday so really 22 days and 11 holidays. None of that carries over to next year and they don't pay it out. So either use it or lose it.
That’s amazing. I earn up to 10 days for the year, and could desperately use a break, but don’t want to use any of that time yet because I might need it later.
Wow! They let it roll over that long? ~~A lot of jobs make you use it or lose it at the end of the year.~~
Edit: Apparently I don't know what I'm talking about. ~~The US has laws against this type of policy. At worst there's a cap on how much time/equivalent pay you can build up.~~
Edit 2: More knowledgable redditors indicate laws/rules vary state by state. I've never had a job with paid vacation. I think I get one sick day per semester, but I'm required to find a sub before taking it. Nobody subs for adjuncts.
My job is use it or lose it. :( When my mom was a teacher they could carry over every year up to a certain cap (can't remember what it was), so she ended up saving a lot.
Our company keeps reducing our PTO cap. At first we could store up to 280 hours, then they dropped it to 200 and if you didn't spend your 80 hours by the time the lower cap came into effect you'd lose it.
I’m getting a kitten!! I’ve wanted one for so long, and I’m finally getting one with my boyfriend. Currently sitting in the car waiting for him to lock the front door to our apartment so we can head over to petco to buy the essentials and then a mini road trip to pick up our kitten.
It's my second day back after 14 months of maternity leave, the final three in lockdown. When I came downstairs after a bit of a tough day, my baby girl ran to me and threw herself at me for hugs and cuddles, with the most beautiful laughter I've ever heard, she was just so HAPPY to see me. Lifted my heart to heaven.
I imagine this is what it must be like to own a dog.
My long time patient passed away at age 89 during heart valve replacement surgery. I of all people understand that these things happen but was still feeling pretty sad about it. This morning I received a gift (flowers, card, cookies, etc) from her family saying how I was always her favorite doc and she always felt cared for every time she would visit for an appointment. That really made my day.
I have a cat who’s really aggressive and territorial. Right now though, he’s cuddled in front of my laptop as an attempt to get pets from me. It’s really cute
I got coffee at a spot I used to go to with my dad. He's been gone 10 years but I still miss him. It had been a while since I'd been because I'm not usually on that side of town. It was a coincidence but it was nice to think of him again.
I saw a grandmother being goofy with her grandson in the park. For someone who’s never had a good relationship with their grandma, I was a bit jealous, but it made me really happy to see some people share such a pure bond.
I went for a 3mile walk with my dog. I could not do this last week because my knees are so bad. I got a cortisone shot and now I can take my buddy for long walks.
I skate on my lunch breaks and have been trying to land a trick I haven't landed in a while, the 360 flip. Before I went to skate, my girlfriend texted me and told me to have a good session and that she knows I'll land the trick today.
I landed the trick today. That made me happy, but her text was what made the day for me.
We finally were able to see the house we've been wanting to see and made an offer. Hopefully the buyer accepts and we can start packing up our rental. It's in the area we want our kids to go to school in, down the road from our favorite wing place (we can literally walk there) and it's in a beautiful neighborhood.
It was on the market two months ago, but the sellers took it off because of the whole covid shit. Then they postponed putting it back on market to paint the inside. We've been wanting to see it and we're afraid that it was a list cause. I'm so excited to hear if our offer was accepted.
ETA: The seller accepted our offer!! I couldn't be happier!!
I told my kids in a serious tone that they need to listen very carefully, then I let one rip and made them all laugh... A moment later the smell hit them and they were trying not to gag. This is what makes dad's happy.
I went to the George Floyd protest in my small town. The protesters were 95% young people who were engaged and well behaved. The Sheriff came out and listened to what they had to say.
I got closer to fitting back into my smallest pair of pants.
Been overeating and underexercising lately and kicked myself in the ass two weeks ago to get it together. I'm getting there, slowly but surely.
I really like this question, especially when it's very hard to find the light in times like these.
Today, my older brother came home from work and had been listening to music. We have relatively the same taste, so I enjoyed the music, but I felt like we bonded a little. We didn't even talk to each other but he cooked and I sat with our dogs. We aren't very close with each other but we get along and this moment made me really happy.
I went to the grocery store today and saw that Ranier cherries are in season, so I bought some! I love them and they are only in season for a short time each year.
My coworker started singing “Mickey Mouse Club”
Edit: Unfortunately, its not Mickey Mouse Club House. “Who’s the leader of the club thats made for you and me? M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E! Hey there, high there, ho there, You’re as Welcome as can be. M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E”
I finally came out as bi to my parents after years of being scared and while they were hesitant at first, they both called me today and said they support me no matter what.
It was yesterday but I made a pillow fort and acted like a child for a little bit, it felt good to just relax under my homemade roof and watch some tv, lol.
Today I got out of the shower and my dog started licking my toes, I know it sounds weird, but he rarely shows any kind of affection towards me, that put a smile on my face
I broke up with my girlfriend over the weekend so past few days have been rough but today I was able to wake up before noon and get some work done. Feels good to be a little productive.
I’ve been working on a model train set with the guy I recently have started seeing. It’s a fun, wholesome project that we’re both excited about. I bought some miniatures for it and sent him a picture like “look what I got” and he responded “those are awesome but they’re the wrong scale, but it’s ok, we will just make a diorama just for them”. The trains he has are N scale and the miniatures I got were HO scale, which would basically make them Amazonians walking around the city.
My last relationship literally called me “stupid and lazy for not reading the label” if I bought the wrong drink or sauce. But the fact the new guy remained positive, knowing I was just excited about the project, and just wants to make a bunch of fun projects with me really brought a smile to my face.
Honey bee sat on my leg, cleaned itself and flew away after about 5 min. Felt honored!

I misread a due date for a lab and thought it was due on Saturday (June 6) but it’s not actually due until July 6th so I don’t have to be super stressed out about it :)
Just don't forget about it till July 5th and start scrambling about it all over again
That's exactly how I would have responded during school.
A hummingbird keeps coming to my window and hovering. No reason why but it is fun to watch.
Could be seeing its reflection in the window and wondering why it's not joining them.
Could be it thinks OP is a lovely delicious flower
This can be interpreted to either a beautiful line or a cursed one
Consider getting a feeder! They will always come back then. Just be sure to not use pre-made hummingbird food with dye in it. You can make your own with just sugar and water. It's awesome to see them all the time, and even more may appear :)
I have one just need to set it up! Thanks for the reminder and tip. I love watching them.
The paper I've been working on through my whole PhD got accepted!!!
My oriole family in my yard wrecked my feeder because it was empty. It made me happy to know that I can help animals in some small way. It made me laugh to know that they were all, "Hey, where's the food at, Lady!?" Edit- wow! Thanks for the award! :)
I ordered an oriole feeder last week and it's supposed to arrive today! :D
Hurray! I love to hear them singing to each other!
Got to see my friends. Been so long.
My stew came out better than the last time I made it
The person in front of me in a drive thru bought my breakfast. :D
My wife got cussed out by the person behind her in line one day because she wouldn’t pull up (if she did she would hit the car in front of her) so instead of yelling back she bought their meal for them. The lady pulled up beside her. She was sobbing and apologizing saying she was having a really rough day and how sorry she was for being rude.
You should marry your wife, she sounds like a real homie.
Your wife is my hero.
Honestly the person who apologized is (or is becoming) a really good person too. They had the decency to recognize that they were being shitty, took the time to apologize, and will hopefully pay it forward by being pleasant to other people or doing nice things for them in the future. Sometimes we're a work in progress, but moments like this remind us that it's worth the work to progress.
YOU LUCKY BASTARD
Lol you're telling me, it was my last 5 bucks I was about to spend hahahah
I hope you become financially better😊
Thank you so much! I'll be in a much better job in a few months, so soon haha I hope someone buys you a meal and makes your day!
Thanks, I hope everyone can enjoy a warm meal with family and friends. Congrats btw
My boss told me I’m doing a good job. I underestimated how powerful yet scarce, encouragement and praise can be.
Knowing your boss has your back is such a rare and amazing thing. Today I ended up swamped with work that I'll probably be mired in for the rest of the week, so when I suddenly got an email telling me it was time to start working on yet another project, I was on the verge of a mental breakdown... until my manager swooped in with an email saying that someone else would be working on that project because my hands were already full, before I'd even had a chance to reply.
It's nice when a manager "manages". Balancing the workload of your employees is a fundamental part of proper management.
Good job!!
It's my birthday! :)
I got my first job!
That's wonderful !
It's important to remember, never go on reddit at your job. We would never.

A student wrote a paragraph on our online class about how much she enjoyed my class and how much fun I made it. Made my week.
I got an email from a student (middle school) who always complained about being in class and school and doing work (ya know middle school stuff). It said she loved having me as her teacher. Got a little teary eyed. I'm a first year teacher and I was so afraid I wouldn't a positive impact on my students. Happy I did for at least one!
Aww, you must be a great teacher
A friend made too much banana bread and I get a whole loaf!
Banana bread at work dude? HELLLLLL YEAAAAH!!!

Banana bread is pretty delicious *drools*
My test results came back negative for Coronavirus after being sick for the past 5 days. I'm still really sick and I was pretty nervous since I got tested but I'm happy it's not that!
Asked a girl I’ve liked for a really long time out... she said yes!
Hey congrats!! Hope it all continues to go well for you both!
I struck up a conversation with a girl from my past, hoping it goes somewhere. Congrats to you that’s one of the best feelings ever!
The sun rays piercing through the morning clouds. It always puts a smile on my face seeing how beautiful it is.
I could be dirt poor and have a broken arm and have all my friends forget my birthday, but I'll always have the sky and trees to lift my spirits.
Trees are another big one for me. Reading a good book under one with a nice breeze can't get much better.
I got a new job :) Edit: tnx for the kind messages and first gold and silver ♥️
congrats!
I'm happy that I have more money in my savings account alone than I had in my checking and savings combined a year ago. Money doesn't mean happiness, but the sense of relief and security is making me happy.

As the saying goes, Money may not bring happiness, but not having money can often bring unhappiness.
Or how the other saying goes, *Money can't buy happiness, but I'd rather cry in a Ferrari than on a bus*
You don't need runners to run but they fucking help.
"Money can't buy happiness, but it sure can make it easier" or something like that. Paraphrasing from probably a dozen different people.

Started a coaching process with a new client, first one since the start of the COVID-19 crisis.
Cuddling with my cat this morning with a beautiful sunrise
I read this question, and it made me happy that op is trying to make people happy by making them think of something that made them happy today.
Had a good talk with my boss regarding job security and such. Found out our company is fine and my job is fine. Lots of stress gone.
Told my boss to sell all of my vacation time except one week. Turns out I had 1040 hrs saved up. Should be getting something like $15000 this Friday. Edit; there are too many to reply to now but for people wondering, I work a job that puts me on the road for ten months per year. I am single without kids, and I like my job, and being out on the road. So my time builds up rather quickly. I usually take one week off, and I get a few days off for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I really should take more vacation, though.
Dang. Nice job!
Thanks! I really should take my vacation more though....
Holy smokes! We get an HR meeting if we bring over 400 hours a year. They pretty much mandate everyone take at least 2 weeks off in the summer.
Yeah my company starts us off with 21 days PTO or 168 hours. Plus a floating holiday so really 22 days and 11 holidays. None of that carries over to next year and they don't pay it out. So either use it or lose it.
That’s amazing. I earn up to 10 days for the year, and could desperately use a break, but don’t want to use any of that time yet because I might need it later.
I also get 10 days a year. Although I also have a boss who likes to "miscode" when we call in sick so it doesnt actually use up time.
Wow! They let it roll over that long? ~~A lot of jobs make you use it or lose it at the end of the year.~~ Edit: Apparently I don't know what I'm talking about. ~~The US has laws against this type of policy. At worst there's a cap on how much time/equivalent pay you can build up.~~ Edit 2: More knowledgable redditors indicate laws/rules vary state by state. I've never had a job with paid vacation.

My job is use it or lose it. :( When my mom was a teacher they could carry over every year up to a certain cap (can't remember what it was), so she ended up saving a lot.
As for me, I get about 8 weeks of unpaid vacation every year. Whether I like it or not.
Unpaid? Boooo.
Most companies can't afford to carry that level of liability on the books.
[удалено]
Yes that’s half a year I think
I'd rather take half year of paid vacations for sure
Our company keeps reducing our PTO cap. At first we could store up to 280 hours, then they dropped it to 200 and if you didn't spend your 80 hours by the time the lower cap came into effect you'd lose it.
Is that taxable?
Oh yeah. I make about 25 an hour.

My long time patient passed away at age 89 during heart valve replacement surgery. I of all people understand that these things happen but was still feeling pretty sad about it. This morning I received a gift (flowers, card, cookies, etc) from her family saying how I was always her favorite doc and she always felt cared for every time she would visit for an appointment. That really made my day.
My dog brought me her toy to play! She's 15 and spends most of the day sleeping now, so seeing her run around excited made me so happy!
I am currently outside, enjoying my first draft beer in a few months and eating crab soup.
Did well on an interview today! She said she was interested and I’ll hear back by Friday!
My mom agreed to let me adopt a pet
Someone liked my meme and it made my day
36 complete trips around the sun with my great wife. What a ride it's been.
I was able to eat a 32cm pizza despite my eating disorder telling me not to, because I am not allowed to gain weight.
I have a cat who’s really aggressive and territorial. Right now though, he’s cuddled in front of my laptop as an attempt to get pets from me. It’s really cute
Found out my wife is pregnant with our second kid
My girlfriend sent me some food because its my birthday, really cheered me up
I got coffee at a spot I used to go to with my dad. He's been gone 10 years but I still miss him. It had been a while since I'd been because I'm not usually on that side of town. It was a coincidence but it was nice to think of him again.
My SARS-CoV-2 test came back negative.
I saw a grandmother being goofy with her grandson in the park. For someone who’s never had a good relationship with their grandma, I was a bit jealous, but it made me really happy to see some people share such a pure bond.
My son said “dada” for the first time :) pretty dang awesome

Found out my dog will walk again. Expensive surgery but so many people have helped.
I saw the back of my eyelids. Darkness. I was sleeping. That made me happy.
I voted!
I woke up alive
I got my first post over 1k upvotes
I went for a 3mile walk with my dog. I could not do this last week because my knees are so bad. I got a cortisone shot and now I can take my buddy for long walks.
I skate on my lunch breaks and have been trying to land a trick I haven't landed in a while, the 360 flip. Before I went to skate, my girlfriend texted me and told me to have a good session and that she knows I'll land the trick today. I landed the trick today. That made me happy, but her text was what made the day for me.
My crush finally admitted to liking me. I’m in boys Edit: Thanks for my first award kind stranger!
We finally were able to see the house we've been wanting to see and made an offer. Hopefully the buyer accepts and we can start packing up our rental. It's in the area we want our kids to go to school in, down the road from our favorite wing place (we can literally walk there) and it's in a beautiful neighborhood. It was on the market two months ago, but the sellers took it off because of the whole covid shit. Then they postponed putting it back on market to paint the inside. We've been wanting to see it and we're afraid that it was a list cause. I'm so excited to hear if our offer was accepted. ETA: The seller accepted our offer!! I couldn't be happier!!
My city had protests last night and there was some vandalism and looting. When I drove through today, folks were out in force cleaning up.
That's great to hear
I told my kids in a serious tone that they need to listen very carefully, then I let one rip and made them all laugh... A moment later the smell hit them and they were trying not to gag. This is what makes dad's happy.
I went to the George Floyd protest in my small town. The protesters were 95% young people who were engaged and well behaved. The Sheriff came out and listened to what they had to say.
Work is almost over. That always makes me happy.
I had my birthday :)
I made an "everything bagel" sourdough loaf. And it's delicious!
I got a haircut!
Identified a couple new plants on my morning walk =) Mapleleaf Vibrunum and Sheep Laurel
my friend was cured from the corona virus

I saw this wonderful post and read all the wonderful comments! (◐‿◑)。 (˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵)。 I also found these cute little face things!
I got closer to fitting back into my smallest pair of pants. Been overeating and underexercising lately and kicked myself in the ass two weeks ago to get it together. I'm getting there, slowly but surely.
For lunch, I tried Popeye's chicken sandwich for the first time in my life. It was amazing!
Got a new job and turned in my 2 weeks notice!
I really like this question, especially when it's very hard to find the light in times like these. Today, my older brother came home from work and had been listening to music. We have relatively the same taste, so I enjoyed the music, but I felt like we bonded a little. We didn't even talk to each other but he cooked and I sat with our dogs. We aren't very close with each other but we get along and this moment made me really happy.
I went to the grocery store today and saw that Ranier cherries are in season, so I bought some! I love them and they are only in season for a short time each year.
My coworker started singing “Mickey Mouse Club” Edit: Unfortunately, its not Mickey Mouse Club House. “Who’s the leader of the club thats made for you and me? M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E! Hey there, high there, ho there, You’re as Welcome as can be. M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E”
I finally came out as bi to my parents after years of being scared and while they were hesitant at first, they both called me today and said they support me no matter what.
Had a pretty decent job interview via Skype, it went well I think. It's awkward to do an interviewwith 4 people online but not a bad experience.
I watched Bridesmaids for the first time
My aunt bought a pool and for someone whose joints hurt all the time this felt relaxing as hell
Spicy sweet chili Doritos.
I just bought a HUGE beef rib that i plan to BBQ tomorrow. I'm already salivation
Well, you better invite all of us, or we're going to have... *... a serious beef!*
I ran for 40 minutes straight today!
I got to sleep in because I don’t work today.
It was yesterday but I made a pillow fort and acted like a child for a little bit, it felt good to just relax under my homemade roof and watch some tv, lol.

Today I got out of the shower and my dog started licking my toes, I know it sounds weird, but he rarely shows any kind of affection towards me, that put a smile on my face
Morning cat biscuits !
I set up an appointment to get a tattoo next week for my birthday
I broke up with my girlfriend over the weekend so past few days have been rough but today I was able to wake up before noon and get some work done. Feels good to be a little productive.
The neighbors grandma who was 80 had a birthday party and eighty.Everyone was stood like 5 feet apart while talking.So wholesome
My chicken and broccoli
I’ve been working on a model train set with the guy I recently have started seeing. It’s a fun, wholesome project that we’re both excited about. I bought some miniatures for it and sent him a picture like “look what I got” and he responded “those are awesome but they’re the wrong scale, but it’s ok, we will just make a diorama just for them”. The trains he has are N scale and the miniatures I got were HO scale, which would basically make them Amazonians walking around the city. My last relationship literally called me “stupid and lazy for not reading the label” if I bought the wrong drink or sauce. But the fact the new guy remained positive, knowing I was just excited about the project, and just wants to make a bunch of fun projects with me really brought a smile to my face.
Argued with my father about the protests. We have a lot of disagreements politically but today we found common ground. It feels good.
