The little thread of happiness

As you may or may not know I work in a Call center for a major hotel chain where we take reservations. I take the complaint calls. Every now and then (a couple times a month) one of the hotyels will send in some people to teach us about their properties. When they come they always bring some \"treats\", usually nasty sandwiches and cheap pizza.

Today a hotels is here and guess what they brought? Masseuse\'s (-si or what ever the plural of it is). 4 of them. I got a free 10 min pro message before I started work. <happy sigh> I should start every day like this!

One of my agents came in tonight and handed me a copy of 40k 5th Ed as a going away present.

Brought a tear to my eye it did.

Painting a squad of Fire Dragons right now. Orange and Yellow. Normally I would hate it, but I haven\'t painted much Eldar stuff before. Ironically I\'m enjoying them. :D

Enjoy it, despite dire doom and gloom warnings amongst the nay sayers, it\'s not that bad. (Especially if you use a lot of tanks :D)

Only a few days to go Lloyd, well you\'d better stock up on essentials like plenty of models to paint and good books to read in the \"boring times\". And not being nasty I hope that they will be long and plentiful.

Oh and no bringing Clyde a friend back, either.


Question: Are you taking an MP3 player out with you?

I looked through it last night and it looked like they had worked out a lot of the bugs as it were.

I\'ve got several boxes ready for B to ship complete with much orky goodness. Then some Nid goodness, and finally some IG goodness - not to mention various Reaper and other projects to work on.

If Clyde finds a friend thats his call, not mine lol

I will have my Mp3 Player with me - just no way to update it at first - but the upside is its one that will play pretty much any format except the Itunes proprietary ones.

My little happiness today was weighing myself. I only do it once a week to keep me from driving myself nuts. Since I came back from London I\'ve lost a total of 19 pounds. 14 of that has been on this diet. I\'m so pleased

:bouncy::flip::bouncy:

Congrats Liz! Diets are a hard thing to stick to. I don\'t know how many times I have tried quitting drinking soda and then started back up again... takes a lot of dedication.

Hopefully I should be going back to the gym sometime soon. :)

My little bit of happiness today is I found burried treasure!

As you all know I\'ve been cleaning out my house, getting Mr C\'s crap together for him to pick up and trying to get the house stagged to sell. I was going through an old duffle bag full of Mr C\'s audio tapes (the bag is mine from before we married) and guess what I found? A handful of minis we didn\'t remember we had! There are several from a company called Harliquin Miniatures and couple from a company called Chronopia. I\'m keeping them. I threw a couple of doodads in the box that I knew Mr C would want to compensate but I\'m keeping them!

Just goes to show that we all should go through all our crap now and then. You might find some treasue hidden in the mess. :D

Ha! Good for you, Liz!

I just found some Warzone and Chronopia myself. The happiness for me is that it\'s one more on the list of stuff to sell.

Have somebody already lined up to buy 1/2 my Sisters of Battle...which will go towards getting one of my bills gone. Yay for the little things!

Oh, and another bit of happiness: my friends have gotten me excited about starting another army, which I\'ve been trading like mad to garner up for. It\'s got me all excited. The excitement is all about trying to make fun conversions...the idea of painting everything is a little nerve-wracking. One thing at a time, though!

@ Steelcut, for the songs downloaded from itunes, if you burn them to disk then rip in windows media player you should be able to put them on your mp3 player, i know its a little lengthy but it works.

Everyone should go dig through their old minis. You never know what you\'ll find!

Just the other day I found some NIB Chaos Dwarf stuff hidden in my mass of models. Earthshaker cannon, sorcerer on Lammasu, and the named sorcerer in a mechanical suit (I forgot his name, but Chaos Dwarf sorcerers slowly turn to stone, and he was very old so he had a mechanical suit to help him move).

Happy thing for today? The vending machine gave me two cokes when I only bought one. :D

Just got a FREE cup of coffee.
Why?
Not sure, but the nice Barista wouldn\'t accept any money. Plus she\'s pretty. :rolleyes:
