My contractually-required happy post

tithoniumSo, according to the livejournal terms of service, to balance the 99% of my posts that are angsty or bitchy, 1% must be happy. I still think the quizes should count towards the happy quota, but apparently they're considered 'fluff' and don't count either way. But, anyway, here it is.
Life's been pretty decent of late, if you discount a few things. There was the drop in the stock price, there was running out of money (like, completely out of money, due to some improperly-accounted-for one-time costs), but it's all good. The stock has leveled out, even recovered slightly. I moved some money around and found a missing refund check I'd forgotten to deposit.
But work has been going well. I fixed in content something that would've been difficult - at best REALLY inconvenient - to do in software, and did it in such a way as to make another project easier. I went thru and detail-scoped my main project - which I haven't really had a chance to work on this week, much to my PM's distress - and discovered there's a lot less left to do than even I thought.
I had three cute young females over to hot tub with me, sisters no less, and one really can't help but feel good about that sort of situation.
Then today I got my newton syncing with my powerbook, which is convenient.
Then I went to a going-away party for a friend who's leaving town. The going-away part in itself isn't really so happy, but the reasons for it are and it was a good party, and there were cute cats, and some interesting discussions, and I knew at least two people there, which is always good.
I am, at the moment, content.
