Post something that makes you GRIN like crazy!

[LynzM]

I figured it was about time for another LynzM positive things thread, so that's tonight's!

Things that make me grin:

Watching my daughter try to catch waves (literally) yesterday, and shrieking with delight about twitching cats' tails :D

Getting emails with personal jokes in them :D

Getting a phone call from someone you like talking to :D

Silly flirting! :D

How 'bout you?

[Wetzelbill]

1. definitely silly flirting

I like seeing some of my buddies on DU too. Lots of really hilarious people hanging out in the Lounge.

Pro Wrestling. Definitely. I know I shouldn't like it but I always have loved it. I take it with a grain of salt and just enjoy myself when it's on.

My family.

Coffee. I love a good cup in the morning. Just enjoyable to kick back and have a good cup and prepare for the day.

A really good book.

Good movies.

Talking to some of my good friends on MSN Messenger.

[LynzM]

2. Ooh, those are good

Hey, dude :evilgrin: ;)

Coffee... mmm. And definitely good books, and friends, I agree!

[Wetzelbill]

46. To books and friends!!

:toast:

[LynzM]

51. I'll drink to that, any day!

:toast:

[biscodawg]

3. here are some things that have made me smile lately:

playing with my mom's insane dog

hugging my mom!

my new route to work on my bike. I have a view of the lagoon near my house that is unparalleled

getting calls from Lindsay at 1 am

new messages in my du in box ;)

and so many more I can't think of at this moment

[LynzM]

4. Dude, you bike to work?

That's really cool!

I didn't know I called you at 1 am.... oops, sorry 'bout that ;)

Yay for New Mail! :D

[biscodawg]

9. 6 miles each way!

stupid cars trying to run me over x( Gosh, why do you always have to wake me up? huh? :P

[LynzM]

10. Wow!

Nice :) I think my 34 miles each way might be a bit much, with a toddler, you think? ;)

[biscodawg]

16. unless he is extreme

and drinks moutain dew, then he/she would be all over that!

[LynzM]

21. Yeah, she'd only have to do about 3, I think...

The other 31 would be all me, by myself, on the highway ;)

Still, something to shoot for someday, a job in walking/biking distance!

[biscodawg]

37. it is nice being so close!

I think all of my jobs have been within 10 miles. I think i need to find better jobs that are further away ;)

[elshiva]

8. Howard Zinn makes me grin.

This sweet kitty:

[biscodawg]

11. you mention Howard Zinn

and post a picture of a kitty. There has to be some kind prize for this :) and :hi:

[elshiva]

14. Thanks! We just watched "You can't be neutral on

a moving train" the documentary on Zinn. He is such a sweet, sweet man.

[biscodawg]

18. did the quote at the end make you cry like a baby?

it did me. (I own said movie :D )

[elshiva]

22. Which quote? The whole show was so moving. He is a true

hero, some one who lives his ideals and cares for all people.

[biscodawg]

28. last quote before it goes to credits

To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory. Howard Zinn

[elshiva]

33. YES! I am crying now! He is brilliant!

[LynzM]

57. That IS a great quote!

Damn! Right on, dude.

[Reverend_Smitty]

23. what was the quote...

I just saw that movie the other day on Sundance (again) and for the life of me I can't remember what that quote was. That was such a good doc, Zinn is one of my personal heroes

[LynzM]

12. LOL

That kitty made me grin, too! :D

How's life treating you, dude?

[elshiva]

20. Great! I'm in love!

How are you, dearheart?

[LynzM]

27. Glad to hear that!

That's awesome! :bounce:

I am good, crazy busy between work, school, toddler, and trying to buy a house!

[elshiva]

36. Good luck on buying a house, hon!

You deserve a good house. :hug: Well, everyone does, but you know :hug:

[LynzM]

48. Thanks, dude!

This house'll be a good thing for a few years... not where we want to be forever, but a good step in the right direction.

[elshiva]

52. Well, I hope so!

Whereabouts will it be?

[LynzM]

54. Still in Willimantic

In a much busier place than we want to be in the long run, but a decent two-family, which is what we want!

[hibbing]

41. thanks for the heads up

I have read the People's History and now added the
movie to my list on my dvd rental thing. That is a powerful
quote.

[greekspeak]

5. Really good sarcasm

Cheesy inside jokes with my friends

The Bobby Darin version of the song, "How Bout You" (I Love New York In June). Especially the line, "Mr Kennedy's looks kinda give me a thrill)

Random acts of kindness

[LynzM]

13. Good sarcasm is excellent, I agree.

I don't know about Bobby Darin, but I'm glad it makes you smile!

[greekspeak]

25. Oh, Bobby Darin's DA BOMB!

He could sing rock, jazz, and folk, all with ease. The man was a singing genius.

[hibbing]

6. one word

[LynzM]

15. Spork!!!

Excellent! :bounce:

Like the long-ass waffle thread we had last night. :rofl:

[LynzM]

29. But of course!

One of the Lounge's best features is its silliness!! :crazy:

[VelmaD]

24. Knowing that no matter how bad things get in GD...

I can come back to the Lounge. :)

[LynzM]

32. Definitely.

GD scares me sometimes :scared: Hence my mostly-lizard status! Welcome back to the insanity!

[VelmaD]

44. I have some sort of weird mental disorder...

because I love the Lounge but I like to mix it up in GD as well. I must be a glutton for punishment. :)

[LynzM]

49. Definitely a glutton

I'm sort of anti-confrontational by nature, so GD is hard for me to take.

[deadparrot]

26. The Daily Show.

Going on a float trip with friends (like I am tomorrow)
Seeing the Bush administration tank
Seeing my favorite fictional couples (on TV and in movies and books) interact

[LynzM]

34. Speaking of TDS....

5 more minutes!! :bounce:

And I definitely agree about tanking neocons!!

[warrens]

30. Watching my daughter

Do the heads down no nonsense mindless boogie while watching And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead at Lollapalooza. Never tell her I could see her, please.

[LynzM]

38. Excellent

I won't tell, I promise :)

[nytemare]

31. The thought of a Rove frog march!

Yay!

[LynzM]

39. Wheee!!!!

I'm sure I said something REALLY funny.

[GOPisEvil]

43. When is she NOT grinning like crazy?

[LynzM]

50. Sweet!

Some comment about hot chicks on Pitt's bed and him missing all the fun, I think! :D

[TOhioLiberal]

47. Kitty pics!

Doggie pics! Baby Pics!
A really good joke, like this:

GWB, Bill Clinton & a boy scout were on a plane. They discover that the plane is going to crash, and worst of all, there's only 2 parachutes!

GWB gets up, puffs out his chest, smirks and says, 'I'm the president of the US and we're at war so the country needs me!'

He grabs a parachute and jumps out of the plane.

Bill Clinton looks at the boy scout and says, 'I've lived a full life,go ahead and take the other 'chute.'

The scout smiled and said, 'We can both jump. Mr. 'I'm the War President' took my backpack!'
:rofl::rofl:

[LynzM]

53. That's a nice one...

I like it :) Little animal pics are good, too!!

[bicentennial_baby]

55. Ooh, I got bunches

falling in love with a sweet boy, leaving for paris in 2 days, haircut tommorrow, my common era, tomatoes, and raspberries.

[LynzM]

56. Awesome!

:bounce: Those are all great things! Mmm... fresh berries. GOOD stuff!

[Wetzelbill]

58. oh gosh, you didn't need to tell them about our love

Making me blush over here. :)

[Redstone]

59. Your daughter. And my son.

(Though not both at the same time, like that sounds.)

Redstone

[LynzM]
