I'm still happy and optimistic. Ask me anything!

[rbnyc]

And ZombyWoof, don't you DARE ignore me!

1. Do you take anything for that?

[rbnyc]

4. No.

I've actually been drug-free for over a year!

I used to be a bigtime pot-head.

:evilgrin:

[skygazer]

2. Are you stoned?

Can I have some?

[rbnyc]

5. See reply above.

Here are some of the reasons I'm feeling OK:

3. How are ya?

How's Garrison doing?

mmmmmmmm lovey cuddly baby... I'm not surprised you're optimistic. :D

[rbnyc]

6. Ding! Ding! Ding!

I just can't help it. Any world with Garrison it it just has to eventually make a turn for the better, and in the meantime, there are still plenty of wonderful reasons to carry on.

7. You nailed a good bit of it

with that thought. It is hard to feel too bad when you can cuddle a baby. I am soooo jealous.

[rbnyc]

9. I just thought of something.

You made me think of a pretty good idea for people who are having a hard time getting over depression right now. Don't hospitals have volunteers to come in and rock babies and play with children who are staying in the hospital?

[redqueen]

11. That is a fantastic idea!

And lots of youth programs need mentoring volunteers, too!

[rbnyc]

13. My best friend always says...

...when you're feeling low, and especially if you're feeling sorry for yourself, the best thing to do is volunteer.

I think she's right.

[redqueen]

16. Yes, I think she is, too.

I always feel good after helping someone else. Especially if I'm not ewarded for it.

[redqueen]

14. I'm jealous, too

Babies are sooooooooo wonderful.

:loveya:

18. I can tell already tho' that it goes by fast.

He's already hit so many milestones and gone through so many changes. And it's hard to be away from him all day at work.

At least he's with his daddy.

[redqueen]

22. Way too fast

But there's always some new wonderful thing happening, though. Just wait until he can call you at work. :)

I'm glad too that he can stay with his dad... he's gonna be one happy liberal kid!

8. How do you spell schadenfreud (sp)?

Cuz I think we'll all be typing it a lot in the next four years.

[rbnyc]

10. I have no idea!

And I admit, I don't know what it means either.

:shrug:

17. German word (of course, since it has to do with suffering)

that means the enjoyment of another's misfortune. It'll be omnipresent at DU in no time at all. Look for the first spike in January when Chimpy is unable to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue again, and a huge surge in March when the draft is reinstated.

And so much that we'll be filling gallon jugs of the stuff when the indictments start coming down.

And, whether this makes me a bad person or not, my own personal fountain of it when Cheney next clutches his chest and can't breathe. I will have a party that fuckin' night, Lord Vader.

[rbnyc]

21. Thanks! (nt)

[soleft]

12. How's Jr?

Plus I've been thinking more about that All in The Family parody idea.

15. Hi.

I updated you in the I'm Gay thread. But he is so wonderful. I'm so lucky. I can't wait for you to meet him.

[Bossy Monkey]

19. I think you just volunteered to post a baby pictures thread :)

Hi!
(Admittedly, maybe a better idea at some future time when traffic finally dies down)

[rbnyc]

20. When I get this new roll developed over the weekend...

...I will post for sure.

:)
