Things that make me happy

Since I haven't posted in a while, I wanted to rattle off a nice, upbeat post about things that make me happy (especially after last week's far more downbeat post, the likes of which I hope never to have to write again). In no particular order:


  • The current Major League standings as we conclude month #1, particularly the positions of the Orioles and the Yankees in the American League East and the way the Braves have been playing so far. Hell, if you just turned the NL Central upside down, you could almost call it a perfect year so far.

  • New addition to the blogosphere Brad Ploeger (actually his fifth or so attempt).

  • Jeff's comment on a recent Ploeger post, which I intend to interpret in the wrongest way possible and never let him live down.

  • Puppies.

  • The upcoming "Margaritas of God" weekend, featuring performances by the National and Arcade Fire, and special guest appearance by Bob Sacamano. (No one outside myself and Bill Gates what the hell I'm talking about here.)

  • Forrest Gump (both the movie and the softball team). Also, relatedly, beating a priest in beer pong in the backyard of his church. (Hey, he beat me earlier in the night, I deserved retribution.)



Surely, there are plenty more, but I'll leave it at that for now.

Song lyric of the day:

As far as you know?"
