What Made Your Day?

[mb3000]

In response to the "pissed off" thread that I visit regularly, I think we should have a "happy" thread as well.

Tonight I managed to get my car in the garage in time to avoid any damage from the oncoming hailstorm AND snag exactly what I needed from AutoZone, which happened to be the last coolant flush kit in the whole store. The latter of the two happens so infrequently it made my day.:biggrin:

[Granny]

I like happy threads. :)
Thank you

Yesterday, I smoked the taillights and marker lenses to go with my RT conversion and didn't get any runs or orange peel. Good times!!

Was at work and this customer had one of those black t-shirts with white lettering top to bottom, looked like a douchebag shirt....then I read it: "GAGA HAS A WIENER"


made my day.

[mb3000]

Washed my car and pulled it in the garage just in time to safely view the golf ball sized hail come down, seems like we are getting a lot of that this spring.

After hours of convincing myself I blew a head gasket, I found a massive crack in the heater hose. :7Up:

[DocWalt]

Congrats :p

I had the most memorable night in ages last night.... At the moment I'm not even sure I believe that it went down like it did, lol.

Fiancee and I had my parents over for Father's Day. After being in FL for the past 4 years, and only seeing them once or twice a year, I'm glad I get to spend more time with my family now.

After submitting my research paper for the last class I took, this was the feedback I received...

"YOUR PAPER WAS OUTSTANDING!! I have taught this course many times, your paper was the best I have seen. It is a model for excellance. You incorporate all the requirements in an extremely well-written and articulate paper. It was balanced and demonstrated outstanding critical thinking skills. The only "30" I have ever given! Congrats. Well-deserved for your great work."

Made my day.

Edit: 30 was the max grade... it was worth 30% of my grade.

Met the new Captain (Commanding Officer) of the submarine base I work at, he was simply down in the working area looking around. He was in the working uniform, the blue camo 2 pc uniform. I made eye contact with him from a distance and didnt see he had eagles on his collar, lol. It was close to the end of the shift so I just approached him and he was very curious about how we work and what we do. I talked with him for about five minutes. I was very impressed with him, seems like a great guy who might actually give a shit about the people that makes his job exist. A much better improvement from CO's of the past.

Oh yea I'm 21 mpg in my vr-4, that made me happy.

Realizing that my electric fence will without a doubt keep my huskie in the yard, even though the breeder said it would never work. Deer are outside the boundary of the fence, it if dog moved anymore to the right he would have gotten shocked.

Wow. Great job training them with the new fence. We've thought several times about getting one, but it won't keep OTHER animals out of our yard which can bring trouble.

[DocWalt]

Staying up until 3:30 with a friend to just talk and her giving a fantastically simple "Thank you" :)

[DocWalt]

Related to the above.... She made my day :)

2 days ago, the dealer said my turbo's were dying, now I've got valid justification to warrant a $2k+ turbo upgrade. :-)

This was Sunday, but it made my week ;)

We were losing 1 to 2 in the bottom of the 8th and I arrived at the plate with 2 outs and runners on 1st and 2nd. As I walk up, the starting pitcher, who had stifled us all game, handed the ball to the first baseman. I've had a bunch of AB's against both pitchers, so I didn't really care.

The count quickly went 1 ball - 2 strikes. I think the next 3 pitches were all curve balls and I fouled them all off. I got my hands extended on an outside, elbow high fastball and drove it straight down the left field line. I thought I had it, but as I rounded 1st, I watched it clear the fence while being pushed foul by the perpetual stiff breeze...

Disappointed, I jogged back to the plate and immediately got back in the box to foul off another. At that point I decided to catch my breath before stepping back in... Curve ball, dinked foul. Then I lined a pitch into the Riverdog dug out so hard that it ricocheted off a pole and bounced all the way to our dugout. Finally, I had worked the count full when I dinked another curve ball off the end of my bat. This one actually knocked the plastic end of my bat down and into the barrel. It rattled, I laughed, and got a new bat. I guess the extra ounce & inch helped because I lined the next pitch into left field. The runner scored from 2nd, I ended up on 2nd base on the throw into the infield, and the game was tied, 2-2. The next batter walked and our 3-hole hitter drove myself and another in with a double into right center. We won 4-3 to improve to 12-3-1 on the year :coo3l:

Tire Rack. I was swept off my feet when my tires arrived at my house today.

Customer service was more than impressive & the shipping was stupid fast.

Ha... I bitch slapped that team with my dick. They didn't even get a ball into the air, let alone into the outfield.

And yes, the Hoosiers are absolutely all bidness. I think it looks sick.

The tops, man. Nothing like shutting down a team with so much hope.

And yes, 4 Hoosiers on an AWD car is the equivalent of a .44 mag on the hip. Pure badassery.

Waking up at my girlfriend's house was pretty win... and not only because it's a 5 minute drive to work, ha

[mb3000]

The other day I was doing some interior work (pulled the center console) and dealt with the rats nest of wiring left behind from approximately 15 years of rice ownership. Finally solved all of the electrical gremlins & noticed today that my AA wing is now down.

I've been trying to get it down for months! :D

Played with an old 600cc crotch rocket today, managed to keep up on <wastegate boost.

Haven't done anything like that in years, brought back some old memories.
