things i am happy about:
jelly donut cupcakes frosted with confectioners powdered sugar,
learning to play the drums in rock band,
watching episodes of buffy the vampire slayer with my girlfriend on the phone watching the same thing a few hundred miles away.
(i thought i hated this show after the first season, but i've really enjoyed season two and beyond)

things i am unhappy about:
my laptop giving up the ghost today,
the feeling that no matter what happens in the primary tomorrow our politics will still suck,
waiting for my current employer to approve my contract while i'm still putting in hours.
(i really like my colleagues and the project, but i have growing resentment about the organization)

things i am neutral about (or just don't care):
microsoft/yahoo acquisition talk of any kind,
my inner curmudgeon growing stronger every day,
the super bowl now that it's over.
(watching with friends and making micro-bets while cheering against the patriots (just for the sake of spoiling the record season) was amusing though)
