Let everyone rejoice, for it is Friday.

Everyone is in a good mood today. It's the Friday before a long weekend, so there's actually cheer and life in the office. (Kinda strange, but it's a good strange.)

All the same, I can't help thinking that Friday here means its Thursday in Celli-land. I'm wondering how the appointment with the career counsellor went... (Two months. Dude, would so *rock*!)

You know what really rocks? Mum offered to drive me in today. It's foggy and cold, and I really appreciate the offer as it's a 40 minute drive as opposed to an hour on public transport. Warm car and conversation versus sniffling office workers with long legs and pointed elbows? It's an easy choice.

As you can tell, I'm in a surprising good mood. (And I have painkillers with me to stave off the headaches. Life is looking good.)

Last 20 Posts Meme

I started lunch half an hour late and now I'm downloading codecs (*crosses fingers*). Since I'm stuck for five minutes, lets try celli's last 20 posts meme.

ETA: Oops. I just realised the meme was what do the posts say about you. I'll fix this later.

ETA2: *sigh* Downloaded the codecs - still doesn't work. Hence, we'll try the meme again.

1. I'm easily pleased by the idea of a long weekend.
2. I, ahem, *appreciate* the sight of my SN boys in boxers.
3. I'm actually participating in the feedback challenge this time.
4. I am amused by oddly appropriate badfic-ish spam.
5. I'm writing more Danny/Accounting
6. I have no real knowledge of how codecs work.
7. I missed this week's L-Word.
8. I can *never* have too many long-suffering Casey icons.
9. When I'm in pain/sick/tired/hungry, I tend to whine. A lot.
10. Just because the pairing is wrong, doesn't mean I can deny the urge to prove I can write it. (Charlie/Danny wip)
11. I see Josh Lyman in sitcoms.
12. I missed the bomb threats at work. Also, the poll shows me that regardless of what I'm writing, I should be writing.
13. I sometimes use LJ because I'm too lazy to email LJ users.
14. The idea of Dan studying accounting is too adorable for me to resist.
15. I finished my second exam and had strange fic thoughts. (Just because I know it's strange, won't stop me writing it.)
16. I have proof that I'm a square.
17. Finished my first exam and then realised I can recognise Sally Sasser's bust.
18. I was rather confident about my first exam.
19. I got a visit from the LJ Fairy and found out happyminion is my stalker. (I don't *think* those two are connected.)
20. Celli constantly encourages me to write fic. Even when she isn't *explicitly* encouraging me, she can still be blamed for the results. (Or: I learned that gayness isn't a contagious disease, even though some people act like it.)

ETA3: While I was studying for the Accounting Theory Exam, I kept thinking of Ray Chambers as Ray Charles. Now, I keep hearing Ray Charles' name mentioned and my thoughts immediately dash to Continuous Contemporary Accounting (otherwise known as the crack-theory of asset valuation).

Oh, and while I'm posting, I might as well mention that some of the stuff I learned in Financial Planning this semester was actually *used* at work today. It's oddly satisfying to actually know what the heck I was supposed to be explaining. *g*

Bruce Lee!

Am insanely amused and entertained by this.

For some reason, my co-workers don't share the fascination. I mean, no, I'm not a big kung-fu movie buff, there is no point scoring/winnning system to this, and yes, the entire purpose is just to record your own freaky Bruce Lee mini-film, but still... I'm insanely thrilled by this.

Mind you, you need to keep in mind that I'm amused by this even though this computer has no speakers. That's right. I can't even hear the sound effects, and I'm *still* utterly happy with it.

Things that make me happy

- Chocolate! (I gave in a bought myself some from the stack out the back. I just finished a giant Caramello Koala, and now I'm devouring strawberry-creme filled eggs. Mmmm...)

- Celli. *hugs her*

- ... you know, I was trying to come up with a C-word, because I adore alliteration, but I can't. Instead, I just have to point you to laylee's Sensitive New Age Tourist because it made me smile. It's a lovely look at laid-back Dan, going about his day. Sweet, nice and subtle.

- The OC! It's starting on Tuesday week (the 22nd, to save the this Tuesday/next Tuesday conversation) and from the advertising, they're starting with the pilot. (Woo-hoo!)

- Thinking of TV, someone's offered me a copy of the L-Word, so there is much celebration. (I mean, yeah, I've read the transcript, but I want to see this - even if I already know I'll be cringing and telling Dana, "For the love of all that is good and right in the world, stop doing that!")

- Long weekend! Everybody join the conga line and sing with me: "Three days off wo-ork! Three days off wo-ork!"
