That's my first happy thought (that he hadn't had a heart attack).
Then, after lunch, I spent the afternoon trying to catch up with what I should have done this morning. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up tomorrow.
My second happy thought? I am on my way home and looking forward to a very nice, if unhealthy, chicken in cheese sauce.

I think you deserve your chicken & cheese

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
We did not go out last night & had a perfect night with a Brandy & coke & some good Traditional Country Music. Nice to relax & listen to the words of songs.

Do you ever play it as a Fiddle with Bluegrass Music or Western Swing Music. I love Fiddle & pedal Steel in a Country Band

Did no characters at all, just good old fashioned stand-up. Though if you closed your eyes you could picture Brian Damage or one of the Balowski boys.
