It's Friday! (oh ffs, now that song is stuck in my head)...
Counteract with more cheer...both my Wings and my boyfriend's Habs won their first playoff games, it's happy times!

I did some work for a company a while ago, over a year ago actually, and they never paid me (bastards) today I got an email from them saying their cash flow had improved and they could now pay me! £1,300 out of the blue!  :upset: I feel like Basil Fawlty with his £10 note!

WOW that's like $10,000 American!  I want that kind of luck.  Problem is I probably owe an ex employer that much for work I pretended to do.

lol It's more like $2,120 at the moment, but it's still better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

I'm cheerful because I have been to 4 atheist/agnostic/skeptic get-togethers in less than 10 days, and have NOW found all of YOU guys!  I wasn't aware there were actual, live people near me with similar beliefs.  Duh!  So, I'm happy.

Don't forget us who share a lack of similar beliefs.
I don't, mean to dampen you cheer though.

Reasons to be cheerful:

1. Christ is risen.
2. Christ will come again.
3. I just ate the BEST Pastrami sandwich. EVER.
