WARNING!

Reading this blog has made people want to kill themselves, so if you are easily depressed, perhaps you should find something more uplifting to do, like watch a Holocaust documentary or read a Cormac McCarthy novel.

some things that make me smile

Calvin and Hobbes.
80s metal ballads.
Fireflies.
My students.
Road trips.
Clever use of language.
Karin Berquist's voice.
Making a sad friend laugh.
Neighborhood children playing in my yard.
"Great! Now I have guilt!"
Personal snailmail.
Napping in my hammock.
Conversations with friends.
Jesus's disciples.
The Onion.
The word kumquat.
The absurdity of life.

I guess that's a start. But a smile not happiness makes. BTW: is that last one aimed at anyone in particular?

And smile you should, but the sudden up after the grave depression you showed in the last post is troubling to say the least. Thurman, is it possible that you have a chemical imbalance going on? Really, wallowing in self pity may be a sign of something serious.
