10 things that make me happy

Personalizing my MetroCard,
showing Matty this picture just before he ate out of that bowl,
this band,
chicken tape dispensers,
doodling on empty boxes,
attacking Matty with tea strainers,

going to someone's house and hiding their stuffed animals in silly places,

making new thought bubbles,
turning my door into a muppet,
and my new wireless remote for my camera!
Now I can take pictures and twirl as much as I want until I feel sick.

  3. You're pretty young at heart. Has anybody ever made fun of you for it? People often bring me down for being such a kid.

  4. I want that tape dispenser!! Seriously, you brighten my day so much. Plus you brighten the day of my family and friends because you give me ideas to do things to cheer them up too. I am so doing the stuffed toy thing and I am planning on putting a bunch of paper rain drops and clouds all over my daughter's wall while she is asleep (with an umbrella over her bed of course). So easy to just make someone smile and thank you so much for the prompting to do it.

  5. @wallflower- Of course! But I know those people are like that only because they forgot how to have fun and feel bad about it ;)

    Don't ever let them bring you down!
