Ten Things That Make Me Happy

[jetpack_monkey]

So I had Social Fail at the July 4th party I went to, which I feel guilty about, so I'm taking a cue from qkellie and listing some stuff that makes me happy.

• Having an apparently telepathic connection with my wife, wherein we are already in agreement on propositions that neither of us have brought up (i.e. whether to leave our stuff in boxes after the recent fiasco).
• The best coffee in the Phoenix area is a flight of stairs away from my apartment.
• Classic-Horror.com is back and better than ever.
• Babylon 5 has been rocking more awesome into my world over the past month (just four episodes left in Season 4).
• I have great friends who I love and trust.
• My niece and I have a mutual admiration society going. She thinks I'm the bee's knees, man.
• Doctor Who Season 5. I wasn't sure about it at first (and I'm still not 100% on Matt Smith), but Moffat makes me go, "Rusty who?"
• Mandatory daily cuddles. 
• Being a member of the horror blogging community. These are some of the most intelligent, friendly, and down-to-earth people I've ever dealt with.
• Watching "The Boy Who Left Home to Find Out About the Shivers" (an episode of Faerie Tale Theatre) for the first time in many, many years. It stars Peter MacNicol, Christopher Lee, David Warner, and Frank Zappa. Narration by Vincent Price. Fun times and just as delightful as I remember it being when I was much shorter.
