  Mister Boxy......lol.......finally a honest man.....porn makes you happy and you say it  out loud....lol....
  Does your wife know about it?.....;-P
  
   
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Gingery.....something else that makes me happy? That my wife doesn't read this blog ;-) LOL 

• gingersoul said on Nov 30, 2008....

  LOL.....oh, i had this feeling by quite some time now......:-)
  
  Uhmm....would she be disappointed, indifferent, surprised or upset?
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Gingery.....actually she is aware that I enjoy porn and has no problem with it. She watches it too! But I'm still happy that she doesn't read my blog because it's a secret....

• gingersoul said on Nov 30, 2008....

  You know....my question wasn't about the porn....
  
  It was about your blog.......but since you say she doesn't know anything about it......its good you have a secret, personal outlet for your feelings and ideas...:-)
  
  I was wondering.....do you think you had this need of keeping your blog a secret because you are missing something in your relationship or you would have it regardless?
  After all...blogging isn't like having a circle of friends at the bar with whom being free to talk about everything without that subconscious need of being careful in what you say?
  
  Emotional GPS can be annoying sometimes...:-)

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Gingery.....I honestly started this blog simply to have fun. And I do enjoy having a place where I can share things I might not share as freely otherwise. I want to have a private place that's just for me. Don't we all? 

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  I'm still smiling about your list. :) Somehow you took large parts of what I might've said -- what are the chances? ;-)
  
  Anyway, other things that make me happy:
  
  -hot chocolate
  -finding twangy songs for a non-country music fan
  -blue Mountain Dew (even if I am the only one on the planet who likes it)
  -making someone laugh
  -messy desks
  -extra-powerful moments of fun
  -getting closer to not being a whale anymore :-p
  -unexpected pockets of time to spend with someone special
  -poking fun at beer and coffee
  -little kid kisses
  -ghetto computer chairs (although if mine wanted to sprout more padding, I wouldn't complain!)
  -conversations about anything and everything under the sun
  -being loved and feeling that, knowing it without a doubt, even when I don't see why someone would
  -chocolate pancakes and chocolate milk (and the waitperson's amused look when I order that)
  -loving someone I trust to never leave or strike where it hurts most, even though they're the only one who ever could
  -being amazed at how that love grows every day when it shouldn't be possible
  -incredible friends
  -squishies
  -Subway food (sorry, Kyle! :-p)
  
  I'm sure there are more, but I have to run. I might be back for round 2 later; there are lots of things that make me happy! :)

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Infernally......I like your list too :-) I'll never understand the blue Mountain Dew though. Yuck! And when you say ghetto computer chairs do you mean like this one of mine?
  
  
  
  I'm anxious to read your round 2 of happy things. I think I could come up with a lot more too....
  
  
  Me-Myself......you've got a great list there too. I love pecan pie and getting special attention too. Happy holidays to you too!

• wombat said on Nov 30, 2008....

  LOL about the frying pan!  Sounds like Mr. W!  (he recently bought this huge cast iron one that won't even fit on the stove!)  I liked your list, almost uncle Box!

  I won't make a list right now, but it sure makes me happy when I get home safe and then it starts snowing----like today!

• husbandhater said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Still laughing at the porn bit but I'm right there with you on occassion Mr.B.

  Things that make me happy:

  God,My children and their smiles,occassionally my job,blogging here,my thirst for knowledge,Italian food,pizza,it use to be having sex but now it's NOT having sex that makes me happy,oh and my dog

  • chocolates
  • talking to my sweetheart
  • seeing his smile
  • watching good movies
  • internet
  • walking aournd the neighborhood and just think
  • being alone in the house full of people
  • long baths
  • soulcast

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  diabolicdame......I agree on the being in love one too. Not much else tops that. And it's pretty sad that a day without bugs makes me happy, but it does!
  
  
  wombat......there's nothing like a really big frying pan to make a man happy. I'm glad you got home safe before the snow.
  
  
  husbandhater.....porn makes lots of people happy on occasion huh? I also agree that blogging here makes me happy as well. 
  
  
  Miss Paranoia......talking to a sweetheart and chocolate are good ones too. But you can't beat beer and porn huh?

• beyondtheveil said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Gee, well, lets see....
  
  Buying new trucks
  Buying a new gun.
  Buying on the net.
  Buying anything.
  Eating my home made burritos.
  Going on a trip.
  Staying out of trouble.
  Grilling out side with beer (you can't grill without beer).
  Telling people how wrong they are as opposed to my brilliant opinion -
  (which only works if they are really, really stupid).
  
  

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Ooooh, I found another one:
  
  -discussing why the LotR movies outrank a certain space-themed overplayed, overhyped, overloved "epic" tale...:-D
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Beyond.....I'm sensing you enjoy shopping a lot. But I agree with you on the beer for sure.
  
  
  Infernally......oh we're not gonna bring our fight here are we? ;-) Star Wars is always going to be the better movie. Spaceships, Jedi's, stormtroopers, Ewoks, robots, explosions. LotR rings has hobbits and boring people walking around looking for a stupid ring. I don't remember any more of that plot because I fell asleep ;-)

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Oh, Jaxl....I pity you that you're so brainwashed as to find something of merit in Star Wars, but not Lord of the Rings...what on earth do they put in the water over there?
  
  Here's a quandary for you...if I put "being right about the superiority of the LotR movies" on my list of things that make me happy, you wouldn't want to even try to take that away, would you? ;-)
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Infernally......they put awesome drops in our water out here because Star Wars rocks. I dunno about that being on your list of things that make you happy. What if my list were to say the same about being right that Star Wars is superior? You wouldn't take that away from me, now would you? ;-) 

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Jaxl: You're incorrigible! :-D I'd say that it was a rare thing indeed to make opposites appear on our lists. I suppose we'd have to agree to disagree and silently say "But I'm right" in the end, huh? :-p
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Infernally.....it is a rare thing that we'd be opposite on this. But if we agreed at first, it would have been a quick, much less interesting conversation! We can agree to disagree though.
  
  
  PS: (I'm right) 
  
  
  ;-)

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  But see, Jaxl, now I really want to watch LotR tonight...are you *sure* you wouldn't join me for that? ;-)
  
  (I'm right :-p)
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Infernally.....I might join you if there was something good in it for me. Bring a big candy cane with you and then we'll talk. I think I can be bribed into watching it.....

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Jaxl: Now that's a bribe I can handle with ease...if that's all it takes to get you to watch LotR with me, I think we're good to go. ;-)
  
  (You won't get off so easily trying to get me to agree to watch Star Wars with you though...;-))
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Infernally......I'm sure I have something you want that I could bribe you with.....

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Oh, I'm sure you do, Jaxl...in the spirit of the season, I'd settle for being filled with holiday cheer. If you could do that for me, I think I might be convinced to not make *too* many snide comments during those movies...
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Infernally.....I've got more holiday cheer than the average person, so I'm sure I could manage to give it to you if you wanted it.

• the_infernal_optimist said on Nov 30, 2008....

  Feeling jolly, are you Jaxl? ;-) I'm sure you'd have me overflowing with joy and goodwill (and possibly quite willing to sit through hours of space-movie hell...).

• ALIENated said on Dec 01, 2008....

  
  My list would be so similar to yours, it is not worth listing. I guess most
  humans are amused by the same things.
  
  

• evil_twin said on Dec 01, 2008....

  Interesting happy list! Some of my happy things are the same as yours, but I've got a few others too. Some other stuff that makes me happy:
  
  I'm happy that I'm healthy now both mind and body
  Coffee
  Chocolate
  Finding out I'm gonna be a dad
  Paid days off from work
  Awesome friends
  My cats
  Singing along to my iPod while cleaning the house
  Lying on the couch
  VH1 shows like I Love the 80's
  You Tube
  Soulcast
  
  I could probably keep going forever actually so I'll stop now. But the last thing I'll say is that the fact my happy list could keep going is something to be happy about too! I don't know if I could have said that a few months ago.

• wishyouwerehere said on Dec 01, 2008....

  I like the happy lists, too!  I also have a thing for bendy straws, Mr Box:
   
  My list?
   
  - fruity pebbles
  - walking in the wet sand in my bare feet when it isn't so freezing cold out!
  - chandelier earrings - really big ones
  - the way my little nephew smells when he is just out of the bath
  - Brooklyn pizza
  - Mel Brooks movies
  - Monty Python
  - Armadillo's hot tub
  - my crazy cat
  - pumpkin spice latte
  - reading people's blogs here at SC
   
   

• the_infernal_optimist said on Dec 01, 2008....

  Alright, wishy. Mel Brooks and Monty Python? You must be my long-lost twin! :-D
  
  ~Infernal
  

• Mr_Box said on Dec 01, 2008....

  Infernally.....you like Mel Brooks huh? So did you like Spaceballs? That might be a farce but it still counts as a Star Wars movie ;-)
  
  
  ALIENated......humans are very predictable and easily amused.
  
  
  Kyle.....how did I not put coffee on my list? I am shamed. That's at the top of my list too. I'm glad you've got so many things to make you happy these days. That makes me happy too (refer to my third item on my list)
  
  
  wish.....I do love Fruity Pebbles. Good one! And bendy straws are pretty awesome.

• the_infernal_optimist said on Dec 01, 2008....

  Jaxl: I did actually like Spaceballs, more because it was a spoof than because of anything else. ;-) It does NOT count! :-p
