Since we have a place to rant about horrible, annoying, or sad things that happened to us I thought it might be good to have a place to share happy rants when something good or perhaps completely awesome happens in our lives. This can include big events, small miracles, or just something that made you smile or laugh.
So what made you feel good today?

What made me feel good today was seeing that my check to the Michigan Department of State Police was cashed. I mailed the payment along with my fingerprints to Lansing, MI last week so that they (and also the FBI) could do a criminal background check on me for my name change. I was worried, because I was dangerously close to the deadline and I didn't want them to close my case, so I think it's good that they cashed the check. It (hopefully) means that my case will not be closed due to lack of progress. Soon my name will legally be Ryan and I will feel more of a right to request that people use this name for me.
It's a good feeling.

0o Interesting idea. Well, I've a "might be happy" one and a "Definately is happy" one. The first is that after some hit or miss circumstances, I find myself more physically attracted to transsexuals, transvestites, genderqueers, and intersex people. And that weirds me out for some reason. What now? I only want to ******** confused/outcasts, now? X| Such an interesting predicament it's funny.. In a weird.. Not-so-cool way. The second has some backstory to it. In C&T(Computer & Technology forum) the regs have a secret santa that's real; postal addresses and all. Only problem was, out names were given to us after christmas, and as all nerds, we are the masters of procrastination. I got some art supplies from Dickblick from the user Futo Maki, and after some long delays, I managed to send my gift to ramiel.sheep.of.lightning, who's a mod. Here's the response I got: Quote: Oh my god. Opened my mail today. I had what appeared to be a mail bomb form some address unknown to me. Figuring it to be a giftmas present, I easgerly tore into it. I have an announcement to make now. Q ******** wins the internet. I absolutely adore my present(s). I will try to get a picture as soon as I can, and I'll get it posted. AHAHAHAHA. Q, you may request any sexual favor from me that you could think up now. And I'll try to get the other pic scanned in ASAP, but I lack a scanner, so it might be awhile. Yes, I have purposefully not said what the presents are. I will post a pictur,e then you can find out. Now I just need ot send frax his present >.> -ramiel It was a shirt with a design I made on it. I'll see if I can upload it at some point. It was originally a gag gift, but it seems he loved it way more than that so... Yay. XD

Heh, that's awesome Q. (About the presentlikingness.) smile
My happy thing today won't get much explanation, but I will say that it involved sexy text messages. I never knew they could be sexy, but boy, they sure can be. *is only a little bit of a bad boy*

That's awesome meppu. smile
My happy rant for the day is that it's Tuesday so I had my zines class. (Personal note to Nios, your zombie story is in there, though I don't know what we're doing with them next week, I thought we were workshopping them tonight, but I guess not.)
Anyway, I sorta kinda almost came out as trans to my zines class. We had to go around the room and give an idea for a zine and off the top of my head I said that I have a bunch of transgender friends and we share stories about being in the wrong bathroom or we're thought to be in the wrong bathroom and funny/sad/horrible things happen so it would be interesting to write a zine about it (though I'm sure it's been done plenty of times, but hey, I was on the spot!), so by including myself in the "we" I think it was sorta like coming out. I'm not sure how it was interpretted though, but I know at least one of my zines for the class is going to be about trans issues, so I think they'll get the idea. It's a strange but also interesting feeling.
AND, another happy thing is that I loaned/gave (I'll probably let her keep them, but not sure yet) copies of the three issues of my perzine destroying something beautiful to my teacher and actually stayed after class a bit to chat with her. Keep in mind I don't ever speak to anyone and I just came up and handed her these very personal creations that deal with things like cutting myself and coming to identify as transgender. So it was a big deal to me and I am kind of proud of myself.

In my auction thread we were talking about places worth living in and I made this quote: I I may have high standards for "Paradise", but I have low standards for "Suitable living space". For example, any town or city where I can drive five miles without seeing a huge billboard that says "Got Jesus?" on it is a "Suitable living space". I am so going to sig that somewhere. Or put in my profiel.. Or something. XD

I really want to be able to post something happy just so I don't seem like I'm always a total ******** up. Someone left me a nice random comment in my LJ:
"It's Beth... you probably don't remember me. (Art 12) But you were always really nice to me, and I wanted you to know that I think you're an awesome person, for not only being completely who you are, but also for always being really sweet and I hope you're doing well. That's it."

I donated 479k to some charities.
And I'm actually not mourning the loss of the money. 0_o

I've had a dramatic few days [what's new] but rather than whine about the cocaine and tears I'd rather share this moment with you all.
I was sitting on the bus with a friend. We were both really sad. We were in a bad part of town and the sky was grey and the ground was wet. A little boy comes onto the bus. He sits down on the seat in front of us but he's turned around and leaning over the back of the seat staring at us with his bright blue eyes. He says, "hello!"
Something about that made the whole past few days, and life in general, seem okay. Something was good and right about the world, even if we weren't quite sure what.

Yeah. I had another moment like that I thought I had already posted.
This was several weeks ago. It was cold out and I was walking home from work. I was exhausted and I think I was upset and depressed at the time.
I looked up the sidewalk to see a beautiful fluffy cat trotting towards me. It had a pleasant smile on its face. It was a chilly evening and the ground was covered in snow. Some ice was frozen in the cat's fur.
I petted the cat for a few minutes and talked to it. Then I kept walking. It looked sad that I was leaving. But seeing a creature rejoice at the sight of me is a nice thing to happen.

My voice has been cracking a lot recently, it makes me sound like a retard.
Which is sad and funny at the same time.
If only I had some friends to share the bizarroness with. Instead of customers.
As i have a job as a cashier at Kroger's now. Which is also good, I guess.
(Kroger's is a grocery store)

Okay, the 479k giveaway thing. I'm mourning the loss now. Stupid delayed reaction! ;_;
If only I had kept ONE extra chain wallet instead of giving away all four in conjunction..!
.. I could be unpoor right now.
Not that it matters, since there's no items I want, but still. Bah, jealousy arises! D:
