It doesn’t have to be big, it can be the smallest thing of all.
But in 25 words or less - tell me something good that happened to you today.
please leave your snark at the door. thank you!
A doctor turned 40 today, so we had german chocolate cake. That’s my favorite.
I woke up, sleepy but healthy!
I woke up late but got to work on time.
I went out for a group lunch for a coworker who is retiring. There was sunshine, good food, and lovely conversation.
Several aches and pains I’ve had off and on for weeks are gone today. I don’t know why.
Forgot my wallet at a bar last night - they still had it when I called today.
I got to lie in till 7am, and when I got to work, the co-worker I’m currently not talking to wasn’t there. Phew.
I got called an idiot. No, really, that’s a good thing. I asked my boss if she thought my job was in danger from the recession and she told me that I am an idiot and not to worry – I am important enough to be secure 
ETA, sorry it was more than 25 words – needed explanation.
ShopRite was selling Glade candle burners for 1/2 price at $3. I had a coupon for “Buy 1 Get 1 free” and another one for $2 off.
I got three candle burners and 6 candles for $4.00 and they came with more coupons for the refills, which are also on sale.
Pretty girl smiled at me, thanked me for snacks.
One other thing: The Office Ron (whose first name really is Ron) was in & out this morning and in & out this afternoon, when I was in a meeting with the Big Boss, so I didnt have to deal with his shit. He is the only worker who cannot grasp the concept of not bugging me the first week of every month when I have to deal with the collecting and distributing the rents.
Um…I don’t know. It must be happening later on.
I just wanted to say that we use this as an icebreaker at the dinner table. What’s the worst thing and the best thing that happened to you today? It always leads to interesting discussions.
My earliest class was canceled.
I got a good grade on my Public Management group project, and the part that I did got only positive remarks. Go me! Also, I found out that my professor graded our earlier paper Canadian style, so what I thought was a B was actually an A. (Apparently Canadians use a wider range of the scale than Americans.) Go me x2!
A new restaurant serving a cuisine new to me opened: Hainanese Chicken Rice. Poached cold chicken, rice cooked in chicken broth, and vegies. Spicy dipping sauce. $8. Good.
I was feeling sorry for myself. The wife told me nicely to cut the crap. I did. Life is now better for both of us.
I had a very nice conversation with a stranger who was in line with me at the bank. It helped me not feel grumbly at all about the long line.
Code Monkey, is that you? 
Optional homework as of Tuesday became mandatory homework circa Tuesday night. I finished it 5 minutes before class. Success!
I had an extra-credit quiz in Dynamics. Did poorly but eh, it’s all free points anyway.
I finished all my Thermodynamics HW correctly.
