Why are you happy today?

So am I PM, the snow is fantastic. Hopefully this means that the Alps will get enough snow for skiing this weekend. Does anyone have suggestions as to where to go or is there a club or sport house that offers trips?

Would be most appreciated

just a thought, but there are a lot of topics on this currently, so maybe a "search" is in order

example

EDIT: welcome bschnell

Thanks Arshoo

Right with you on this bro. Yesterday was first day out in about a week. It feels good to enjoy the snow in good health.

I am happy today because Haggis Junior had the guts to complain to the principal about her abusive math teacher who yells at the kids (10th grade) and insults them on a regular basis. This time she said, "None of you can even read!"
I had spoken to the teacher myself telling her that I refused to have Louisa treated in such a manner, especially if the accusations were not true. The teacher said that the pupils who didn't deserve her tirades knew it and needn't feel targeted.
After HJ's talk with the principal the teacher yelled at the class again and HJ couldn't quite control her facial expression. The teacher yelled, "If you already have a job set up please leave. If not, shut up!" HJ responded, "How can you tell me to shut up if I didn't say a word?"
Brave girl!
Of course, the class did not appreciate her standing up to this tin godess, they just sat there like rabbits in the headlights.

I am off work now! Yeah, and my last patient hasn't been in for over 4 years, but remembered me, because of my beautiful eyes, make all the anger I have in me at the moment disappear.

must make an effort to see Carms eyes next time we meet

seriously, good for you carm!

my first snow in a loooooong time - yeah!

Arshoo - Carm has lovely eyes, but watch that evil glint when she sees injustice!


I am happy because friends are friends are friends even when you are drowning in life and too busy to do them justice you know they are there.

EDIT - and my mom is staying longer!

I finally get to meet MommaDDBug!

Amsterdam. I like. Long time.

Oh, so you are having a goooooooood time Yeti?

I do believe that after some jury rigging I may have created my first glass-plate photo. We shall see if I am successful tomorrow.

why would you want to take a photo of a glass plate ?

Cos i've just bought a load of really nice furniture including a huge big fook off tv for my new flat today, ably assisted by my interior decor consultant.

@TBFB
*cyber slap*

No a glass plate negative. Why? Why not. It looks awesome so far.

Ooohh!!! Glass plate photos. I think they look REALLY cool. I'd like to see how yours turned out, perdido.

OI Dave...

Brought the telly upto my flat... the Pictures fab!

so you have gone all retro then?

Do you roll your own "cigs"?

OYYYY NOOOOOOO you fookerrrrrrr

No worries, Dave. Grinner just sent me a pm and said that he only chipped the back corner of the tv when he dropped it carrying it up the steps to his place. It's hardly noticeable.

burble, burble burble

It's just jokes, baby. No worries.

Im happy cause i got back from the Tramp Juice Shop and my housemate is busy mixing up a 30L bucket of home-brew cider.

My god does it smell nice

oh and cause Dave is having a party

its snowing outside, and looks so pretty.
And I have some leads on some new jobs still her in Munich (everyone keep their fingers and toes crossed)

It worked. Nice.

I'm wireless again And, though the guy from Genesis is not cheap, he is good and fast. Soon my office will be back up to par! Yeah!!!

Almost finished this bottle of wine and J.Coltrane is on.

I get to carry over my 21days holidays!

I'm happy because I just got my own flat in Paris directly at the Fontaine Saint-Michel in the center of Paris. Out of my kitchen window I will be able to see Notre Dame lit up at night and out of the bedroom window I can barely see the Eiffel Tower! Life in Paris is heaven

wow! congrats- i'm on the next plane over!!!

so you're staying there now a bit longer than the earlier plan?

woohhoooo...sounds like I need to look out for the Lufthansa flight specials

Congrats!

Yes, I also just got a raise..so there is more incentive to stay..not to mention I just love Paris and if things work out I will be able to fulfill a life long dream of taking elective courses at the Cordon Bleu during my holidays this summer

edit: Arshoo dear..you are welcome anytime, and you know where to find me. There are a few other TTers you will have to rotate weekends with though
The more the merrier!

I'm happy today because I will be in Munich in 4 days!

I'm happy because Jeckel just shared the last beer in the office with me.

I am happy because the medical staff treated us well and now we have great hopes that they have fixed one of the mistakes by the surgeons in the hospital in Munich.

I'm happy today because I heard that my Daughter has passed the tests she was given, that enable her to stay in the school she wanted in Freising. As the Germans would say it's like a stone falling from my heart, maybe now I can get a good nights sleep without waking up and worrying about her.

Congrats to your daughter then Allershausen, and sleep well tonight...

almost broke a machine today at the gym... the personal trainer didn't set the weights heavy enough, and as I went to lift the weights, we both realized we needed to add another 15kg. It was kind of funny.

I am happy because in 15 days I am rescued by my boyfriend and whisked off to somewhere romantic and snowey

(I nearly wrote in the unhappy vent that I have to wait 15 days, but decided I was in a cup half full sort of mood).

Because the countdown to the last Harry Potter book has begun - July 21st here we come!

Because I just am.

Because kick off is in 5hrs & 40 mins. And I have just got a packet of 12 DVD's from my Mum that she has been collecting from the daily mail every sunday!!! Dr Zhivago in 2 parts, one is parental guidance 12 & the other 15!!, sorry kid you can only watch part one

Seeing how long the movie is the kid will be old enough to watch Part II by the time Part I is over.
I am happy because the sun is shining, the cats are fed and my little brother recognized his stomach-ache as appendicitis and was successfully operated on before it perforated.

Happy to hear that Sarabyrd, I hope he gets well soon...we don't want anything happening to that cute Brad Pitt in Lederhosen!

We have two tickets for the Ducks v Arizona game next Saturday. Go DUCKS!

Have you met Phil Knight yet? He drives a black Porsche with the L.tag "NIKE".

I am happy because I was told that although I am beginning to belong to the Old Farts I am still lovable. I would have been estatic had the person not been five sheets to the wind.

So sad to see someone assimilated
