What would Julie Andrews do?

[annwfyn]

As some of you know, I'm not in the happiest of moods today.

I'm trying to get through to the doctor, and I've had a rather rough time over the last 24 hours. Blood, guts, gore, and everything falling apart. And that's just my social circle.

However, I have decided to follow the advice of a woman of great wisdom. A nun, no less! A woman with spiritual insight, a profound grasp of the workings of the universe. Oh, and a woman with an accent you could cut diamond on, let alone glass.

Yes. What would Julie Andrews do?

She'd be thinking of her favourite things, and then life wouldn't feel so bad.

Therefore, in the spirit of this, I thought I'd list some of my favourite things, or at least positive things which have cheered me up today. Brown paper packages tied up with string don't cut it. I'm thinking about:

The entire new wardrobe that I've got, with a dozen little goth tops, a button up shirt and a fitted chinese dress. All clothes I used to not be able to wear before my op.

The figure I have which I still get excited about when I look in the mirror.

The friends who let me cackle and plan out volcano related death traps. You know, no one is a problem after they have been doused in molten lava. Except Darth Vader and he was at least vastly improved by the experience (Haydan Christian to James Earl Jones. That's a good make over!)

Noel Coward on Saturday.

Melbourne in July.

Milkshakes with wildrogue today.

Sunshine outside, with a cool clear breeze.

And these are some of my happy and cheerful things today. Give me more. Tell me nice things that have happened to you over the last couple of days or stuff I should be cheerful about. I'm refusing to wallow.

Good things that have happened recently? Met up with an old family friend yesterday and spent a couple of very pleasant hours chatting over a pint or two in a very good pub. Went to an interview yesterday that seemed to go particularly well. Off to see Clapton and Cream at the Royal Albert Hall in early May.
