I'm happy today, because I've got some "I LOVE FAT BOYS" badges and because I'm a fat man.
Not quite.
Laughing with all of my body is making me happy.

I truly believe that laughter is the best medicine for body, mind and soul. I practice it regularly and I've even given it a name. It's GELASTOTHERAPY.

I got to try a new (to me) food today: frozen ashta (ashta is a lebanese (and vicinity?) clotted cream flavored with rose and or orange water, apparently, here it was frozen and served like gelato or ice cream). The texture was a surprise because I'd thought it was just a flavor of gelato, not an entirely different thing, but it wasn't unpleasant, just a bit chewier (? not sure I'm describing it well, sort of like a very, very, soft bubble gum texture), with a mild flavor. It was pretty decent. I'll probably get one of their sorbets or gelatos next time I go, but I'd certainly have this stuff again in the abstract.

I love exploring new foods.

these are a few of my favourite things."
No strings, but I'm happier than Julie Andrews right now.

It seems I get used to this Covid testing procedure and I have a preferred testing staff member at my drive-in testing site. A tall BHM who's taking the test very gently. I was about to tell him this when he said: "I've tested you before!"
(Quite remarkable, there are about 10 people every 10 minutes, 7 days a weekand last time he took my test was at least 2 weeks ago.)
So I got recognized and people seem to remember me. Most likely because of my size. (Or maybe because I was perfectly organized - who knows.) Many years I felt a bit uncomfortable when something like that happened. Now I just feel good about it.

I'm happy today, because I've had my first COVID-19 vaccination and I'm seeing my Member of Parliament later today, and because I'm a fat man.
I so agree! It's been sweltering here, mid 80s with almost 100% humidity! It's supposed to cool off a little this weekend thankfully!I'm happy that the weather cooled back down. It jumped too high, too early and my body wasn't ready
Sad emoji for your disgusting heat, AmyJo. Gross!
Thank you! You're in winter down under I think, so good for you!

That’s adorable!! Around here, mid 80’s is what we would consider cooling down. I get so jealous of northern summers but the trade off is awesome winters so I guess it balances out.

I'm happy because it's shopping day and Sanskrit day, and because I'm a fat man.

some things that made me happy today..
- Weather turned from cloudy and cold in the morning to sunny and warm in the afternoon.
- I was tested negative for covid which is required atm to go to stores or cafes.
- I went to stores and a cafe.
- I enjoyed wonderful pistachio ice cream with an espresso outside at a cafe.
- I bought a lot of things that are nice to have in a store instead of ordering online. One parcel less to be delivered. And I have these items right now and don't have to wait. There are sticky notes, scrapbooks, drawing material with polar bears and/ or panda bears on them - I couldn't resist.
- I bought nice flowers for my balcony. Together with my homegrown plants and those bigger ones I bought because homegrown haven't grown further than 3 cm during the last weeks (tomato & peppers) and my herbs - the new urban gardening season on my balcony has started.
One of the flowers is looking suspicious and dangerous I was told
- I made a 7 y.o. happy with buying a whoopie cushion, a purchase I might regret soon.
- I bought cake from a very nice bakery including their famous chocolate mud cake which I call different, but only when there are no children around.
- I managed to take a 40 min nap which was planned to be 30 min only because I would have been late for my testing appointment. I wasn't late, I am happy about that too.
This was a very nice day. Haven't had this for a while.
