I am eating an M&M cookie (which just happens to be my favorite kind), and so, I would like to take this opportunity to point out that this is a very good Friday.
Here's its score broken down for you to see:
Brown sweater that I bought last year doesn't make me look like a woolly mammoth, like I originally thought it did: +20.
Scale says I'm two pounds lighter even though I've pretty much lived on a steady diet of cookies and candy all week (probably due to the fact that I've given up beer, possibly temporarily, but probably permanently): +25.
M&M cookies without the guilt that usually accompanies M&M cookies (because I ate an M&M cookie three days ago as part of my cookie/candy diet): +52 (because I like the number two)
Giving up the stress associated with one/both of my jobs, albeit only for a day so far: +60.
No needless drama as yet at my job today (or for approximately four days running)(the longest since the semester started) and very little personal drama at this time (by comparison to three weeks ago): +75.
Having a pizza already in my freezer for supper tonight: +50.
Helped real students with real writing today: +150.
Total score: 432 (LoWriter makes no claims about the accuracy of her addition but believes her calculator knows its stuff.)
There isn't really a top score. For instance, if I won the lottery, my score would probably drastically increase. At any rate, it's been a fine, fine day. And I celebrate this. :) I hope you can celebrate your Friday, too.
