It makes me happy when we get acid rain on “Take Your Baking Soda to Work Day”
☺
What makes me happy? A warm kitten; if I’m on a diet, half a warm kitten…
☺
I’m happy to watch the sun rise each day because, without it, I’d still be living the same bleak, joyless and tedious existence AND I’d be in the dark as well.
☺
I’m happy when someone I know serves me a dinner salad because they are one less Christmas gift I’ll need to buy.
☺
I’m happy when someone pulls himself out of the gutter and becomes successful because that means there’s a free spot in the gutter I can occupy.
☺
I’m happy to look back on completion of a long, difficult and tedious task knowing that, next time, I’ll have a better excuse to get out of doing it…
☺
I’m happy to hear the laughter of children through my window because I’ll know that they are laughing at someone BESIDES me.
☺
It makes me happy to watch the geese fly south for the Winter. I like to yell, “AND DON’T COME BACK!”
☺
I’m happy to spend a quiet evening with friends but someone’s always got to say something and ruin it.

It makes me happy to convey my vast knowledge to those younger than myself; although, it is mostly in the form of cannibus-fueled rants on subtext in the Gilligan’s Island series.
Is it wrong I can picture you standing on the front lawn shaking your fist at migrating geese? That said, I wouldn’t mind reading your treatise on Gilligan’s Island sub text. I’m sure it’s filled with razor sharp insight.

Ok, there is much humor here but also dark truth: “…living the same bleak, joyless and tedious existence…” That may be sad, may be true…but still makes me giggle.

Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg wrote a popular song called HAPPINESS IS JUST A THING CALLED JOE….so if you run out of things that make you happy, try changing your name to Joe. If that doesn’t work , change it to Harold or Yip. If that doesn’t work, change it to Anonymous. It may not make you happy, but at least you’ll get quoted a lot.
