I've been in a good mood almost all day, which given my sour nature is quite remarkable. I was even in a good mood before my first coffee, which is pretty remarkable. It could be a knock-on effect from yesterday, when Gabriella taught me a sword form, then I did lots of self-indulgent LJ-ing, some constructive LJ-ing, then slept the sleep of the just.

Also today was full of nice little things, e.g.

Didn't get up until eleven o'clock.
Got some positive feedback on last night's constructive LJ-ing.
Had some amusing exchanges on philosophy and took the piss out of Objectivists again.
Enjoyed my class on Aquinas, getting students to explain and evaluate his proofs of the existence of God.
Saw a student from the self-defence course I taught last year - she's graduated from High School and is now studying International Relations here (on the down side, she's not practicing her stuff any more, which is a shame because her kicks kicked ass).
Had a long phone conversation with a colleague who moved to Istanbul (I don't normally like talking on the phone, but I'll make an exception for her).

See, nothing much, but nice. I feel really tired now, though. Maybe happiness wears me out.
