... if I have to kill every single person on the face of the earth to do it." "Yay?" (btvs 3:20)

It's February, which let's face it isn't often the best month so I decided it would be fun to make a list of the things that are making me happy right now! fyi: Things are going okay for me, it's just a busy, stressful time at work. Now, onto the good things:

My happy list ... in no particular order

1. My girlfriend is coming to visit in 12 days!!!!

2. Thanks to the kind anonymous person who gifted me with some yummy virtual candy hearts!! They totally brightened my day to receive them!

3. Thanks to the lovely person who nominated Murder at the Neptune Express at the Fang Fetish Awards in the "Unique Universes - Best crossover with the NON BTVS/ATs world" category. This pleases me a lot because I really love that fic! *g*

So this next part of the list is all the TV shows that are making me happy:

4. Grey's Anatomy - I continue to enjoy the show so much. And it's always good for a cathartic cry.

5. Friday Night Lights - So I've now seen the first 10 episodes and totally love this show!! It's beautifully shot, well-written and has compelling characters and storylines. I'm so excited to see more episodes because I've been hearing just how fabulous it's been recently. I know this may seem like a weird comparison but it fills the hole that Everwood left.

6. 30 Rock - This is the show that snuck up on me and before I knew it, I was hooked. Alec Baldwin in particular is so funny and steals every scene. And this show fills the hole that Arrested Development left.

7. Ugly Betty - This is the show I didn't know I was missing in my life. My friend and I have been watching a couple of episodes together each week and are totally addicted. I'm really pleased with how they're dealing with the latest plot twist and revelations - it's really making me happy. I adore all the characters especially Betty and her friendship with Daniel, and Justin, he's so fabulous!

8. The Office - This show continues to be brilliant! I love how they can be poignant and then shift on a moment to funny and cringey. The Joss directed episode rocked - loved the vampire references and the art show scene at the end.

9. Heroes - I always look forward to the new episodes and always enjoy the show. And omg, how creepy is Sylar?!

And now onto music that's making me happy.

10. Justin Timberlake's Futuresex/Lovesounds. I've been surprised by how much I enjoy this - it's so uplifting.

11. Lily Allen's Alright Still. When we had this on at work last night, I was actually dancing. Definitely an amazing album that always cheers me up, and wow is she talented!

Oh, I must list some food and drinks!

12. The Baklava from the new and awesome Falafel place near my work.

13. That I can still get Peppermint Hot Chocolates from Starbucks!

Hmmm, I can't end on #13 so I must end with:

14. Curling! I went curling with my work on Friday and it was so much fun! I actually was kinda good AND my team won!

So, tell me what's making you happy right now!! *g*

Oh Reading Week, how I miss you! I think our premier's been talking about creating a Feb. holiday, not this year but next. Of course, the business owners aren't too happy about it, but whatever. If Alberta can do it (and Saskatchewan too, I think), why can't we? :D

Oh yes, it was the Manitoba premiere who was talking about it. I really hope you get it next year!!! I wish that Ontario would get a February stat holiday too!
