What Are You Happy About Today? Part 3

[Shotha]

I'm happy as I've found home grown English plums in the shops and they taste just like the ones I used to scrump.

And that reminds me that I must search online for damson jam and crab apple jelly.

I'm happy for the MN state fair being open again! I had an awesome afternoon/night with my sister.

And today I made a cop turn red. Walking down the street I noticed he had a tail light out. At the corner I stopped him and asked him to come look at something behind his car. In a loud voice I said so everyone could hear it "Well Office it looks like you have a tail light out. What should we do about this?" One of the homeless guys yells "GIVE HIM HELL LARRY!"
He said in a low voice to me. "You're an ass Larry."

Yesterday I was having a really horrid day for many reasons. I usually spend the night at my girlfriend's place on Saturday, and she did everything in her power to cheer me up. This consisted of her getting me dark chocolate and garlic-stuffed green olives, and wearing very cute lingerie all night (and us getting up to some naughty activities ). I enjoy simple pleasures haha.

We both agreed that we will wait to marry until we both have stable careers, but man after nights like that I just want to propose to her on the spot, ya know!

 

[Shotha]

I'm happy today, because I have just mail-ordered four new check shirts for our rapidly approaching summer. I like to be a nicely dressed fat man.

Do what works for the both of you, but remember that you are allowed to change your mind and just go for it

I'm (selfishly) happy because now that my wife's biking season has been done for about six weeks, she is filling out her jeans nicely again (in mid-Summer she was biking to work so much that it was looking like she'd have to go down a size). I'm sorry for her that the weight didn't stay off the way she would have liked, but ... yah, I'm pretty

 

[Shotha]

I'm happy today, because I've met one of my new neighbours and he doesn't look like another hoon, and because I'm a fat man.

What is a hoon?
(and I'm happy because I'm about to learn new vocabulary!)

What is a hoon?
(and I'm happy because I'm about to learn new vocabulary!)

A hoon, in Australia and New Zealand, is a person who deliberately drives a vehicle in a reckless or dangerous manner, generally in order to provoke a reaction from onlookers. Hoon activities (or hooning) can include speeding, burnouts, doughnuts, or screeching tyres.

 

[Shotha]

@Tad and @Joker In New Zealand (I can't speak for Australia), "hoon" also refers to other kinds of antisocial behaviour such as getting drunk, having loud parties and damaging property but the main meaning concerns reckless or dangerous driving.

I'm happy today, because it's raining and because it's grocery shopping day and because I'm a fat man.

I received my mobility scooter today. I've been wanting one ever since I had my stroke to be able to do more things away from home. It was a gift from a generous in-law, along with a carrier rack for our car.
