Thread: What is making you happy right now

    Baby babbles make me happy!

    She's been doing this um-awa-awa-awa sound and it's so cute. Just before this started she would smack her lips up and down like an old person chewing and was equally cute.

    I'm the first one into the office today, loving the peace and quiet after a hectic Christmas/New Year.

    New job started today

    My first task is to manage the risk level of ~400 corporate global customers whose exposure with the bank is > US$1bn each. MWAHAHAHA POWAAAAH GIEEEF

    Oh and more importantly the coffee's pretty good. Fresh ground and tasty.

And now we have to use it.

    And that's Why I'm Voting Leave.

    My shiny new windows phone is pretty fucking cool.

    Totally worth every penny I spent for it.

    It did, however, accidentally lead to my deleting all of my contacts from my msn account, though. Ooops.

    Fanx! Loving it so far.

    Cufflinks - I own a few double-cuff shirts and have a li'l boxful of cufflinks, aye.

    The floor I work on is at the top of the building with restricted access and with a lift that only we can use, as we are all snobby, self-opinionated gits who look down on the rest of everyone else. I am therefore required to be suited, booted, and tied at all times. Cufflinks, while de riguer, are optional.

    Boss is cool, but he's a contractor I worked with years ago so I know him fairly well. Laid-back and abhors micro-management, so perfect.

    Rest of the team are over-priveleged, snobby, aloof, shallow, money money buy buy sell sell rich gits *, a real buncha right bankers, so I get along with em brilliantly.

    Will you be going to the golf course with them next then?

    Glad to see all is well in the new job.

    You're English fool (Parents/Family background excluded before you put a spanner in the works), you're supposed to like tea - It's a prerequisite of being English! Now start moaning about the hike of VAT, Fuel and drink your tea!

    I watch footy, binge-drink beer, have a conversational style that is dry, self-deprecating and peppered with cockney-slang, have house-price and class obsessions, join queues whenever I encounter them, read newspapers that affirm my particular ideological and political affiliations, say 'what what' and 'pip pip' a lot, but I draw the line at drinking tea.

    That's just the way it is.

    Oh - and yes - I moan about the VAT hike and the fuel prices. And now that I'm commuting daily by rail/tube I can moan about that too.

    I am different. Different than you thought I was.
    I could have had class. I could have been a contender.
    I could have been somebody. Instead of a bum
    Which is what I am

    I aim at the stars
    But sometimes I hit London

    I'm heartbroken. And clearly in the wrong thread for such things.


    I've been tempted to give up Komrade Kitty as my avatar in favor of that one. It just seems so delightfully representative of me.

    Got the tax issues sorted. Our tax services may be slow, bureaucratic and inefficient, they are very reasonable and try to help you and take the rules as loose as possible. Result: the fine has been revoked and got a retroactive tax exemption from 2007 to now. Yay!

    Pretty chemicals make me happy!
    The fluorescence of this sample under UV lamp is just lovely.



    The pic is taken with a cell phone cam, so the quality is fairly poor...

    16F here. "Felt like" 3F yesterday according to the weather channel.

    We're supposed to get 3 - 6 inches of snow tonight.

    Funny how that seems huge when it's snowfall amounts.

    Keep that mess down South, okay? I don't want to be stuck in the house the next few days.

  27. #2097
    I have no interest at all in this mess, but I'm not complaining about no alarm tomorrow morning.

    Found this gem in great condition at grandmas house. Can't wait to try it out. I haven't shot film in forever.
    The camera is circa 1935ish.
