Things that made me happy this week
May. 7th, 2012 10:01 am- A lovely four-day, four-generational vacation in the Black Forest, courtesy of my grandmother, for Felix, my mom and myself. (The others had to work, so they couldn't come.)
- Felix being an absolutely adorable person (though very clingy) and being adored by everyone. Because his adorability is totally my achievement. :P
- Coming back from said vacation and seeing the hubby again, though the poor soul is still sick (and still has to work too much)!
- Today's xkcd. How true. Sad yet funny.
- A sweet yet powerful letter to young people of the female persuasion that I found via metaquotes. I could sign it, basically. (Sometimes I wish I had a daughter so I could show her these things: Instead I have a son whom I can teach to believe these things, too. Which is good as well, I guess.)
- A fellow dA-er's rant about what she disliked about GoT. I know, I know, how petty of me to harp on about that topic, but it really bothered me that much.
So that's all nice. Who needs birthdays, really? (While I'm being petty anway...)
