I put an 100$ bill into the check. for our 61$ bill.
The waitress brought the check back and said thank you very much and I thanked her in return.
I opened up the change and to my surprise there was only 29$ change instead of 39$.
I immediately called her back as she was walking around and said to her in a very disgruntled tone "uhhh you know giving the wrong amount of change isn't the best way to get a tip."
She profusely apologized and I cut her off and said "hurry just bring 10 more, we gotta go."
She came back and gave the 10$ with puppy dog eyes which I purposely avoided to make her think I was pissed off then she walked away.
I then left the entire 39$ as a tip and we left before she came back to claim her tip.
Who knows if it made her day or not...but my best bet is it did. Didn't exactly make my day, though it wasn't a bad start.

I had the most amazing dream last night.
The dream started with me being frustrated over OZ losing all the games in PL (and WL), in this specific match i watched Jaedong lost vs Anytime which caused an embarrassing 1-3 lose. I imagine OZ played vs Ace but that wasn't exactly clear in the dream. I was totally mad until someone mentioned that OZ doing so bad because they all (huh?) need to train for individual leagues. This statement in memory I looked up the actual standing of OSL and MSL. It was really good to see a Jaedong vs Flash final in OSL (hah, no MBC to screw it up). But uh, why all OZ players when OSL and MBC is in the final stage? Well, the MSL Final is even more ridiculous awesome. No less than Killer (!) vs *drum roll* Backho (fuck yeah!) going into the most anticipated finals ever.
Even tho I have to learn all day for my exams that dream totally made my day.

I managed to finally write the last 15-20 pages + edit a bunch for my novel to get the 0.1 revision nearly ready for my readers last night. Sure, I'm like half a month behind, but at least I got it done - when I am mortally sick and in pain. I'm past the most difficult stages of the revision I believe, so I should be able to move faster now.

This week I:
Played Magic the Gathering at 2 am in a taco shop Went to Joe's Pizza with a bunch of nerds to watch the MSL Laughed at a sports bar full of crusty old Vikings fans weep as the Saints won
|
I have a rivalry with my friend, we pretty much win 50% of our TvPs each (I'm T) and today I won all 5 games played. Needless to say, I'm on cloud 14CC right now.
Also, great initiative, I'm getting more positive from reading this thread already.

happiness checklist do you have.. - 4 limbs - 10 fingers - 10 toes - favorite animal not extinct - hair - comfy bed in a place sheltered from weather - celery
(im dead serious about the celery. it will make your life better)
But I take all of those things for granted. How can having limbs make me happy? And if I didn't have limbs would that really be a reason to be sad?
I finally got my hands on the replays for the Lantravaganza finals... Realising I was 13 supply zerg vs 60 supply terran and came back pretty much made my day.
