In the wake of the election result and the poor prospects it seems to herald for the world for the next four years I'm hoping to start a thread that starts the fight back by acting as a repository for good news - anything that brings a smile to your face or some small element of joy to your heart.

I'm in love.

I've spent the last few days re-writting a script that has had some interest.

I'm listening to Musical Youth.

I'm in love.

Personally, I'm going to wait until there's some news about James Delingpole's love life before I stick my head in the gas oven - Dangerfield, what's the story ?

Ganesh is alive. So am I, and may other 'lithers. That's a small comfort. It'll do for now.

Post-Halloween candy is getting even cheaper. And inexpensive candy always cheers me up.

I have vodka, lots of vodka.

Had a friend and ex was round for dinner and it's taken while but ze's now a wonderful friend.

We are able to be there for each other in important ways and that makes me really fucking happy.

or if you want one word:

People.

I'm in love, and in 74 days I'm moving to Europe with said love... and my cat is lying on his back looking at me with those big insect eyes of his...

I'm not pregnant! I didn't think I was, but hey, I'm not.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

00:42 / 04.11.04

I haven't had a beer in two and a half days.

Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!

00:45 / 04.11.04

I'm not pregnant! And hey, I probably never will be unless certain things advance quicker than we all expect.

Alex's Grandma

00:51 / 04.11.04

Yeah, but Stoat, Dubya hasn't had a beer in over a decade -If you carry on like this, you might end up Prime Minister.

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

01:00 / 04.11.04

I'd vote for me.

Dubya hasn't had a beer in over a decade

Yeah, right. And those blotches were from when he scratched his face eating pretzels.

Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!

01:02 / 04.11.04

I find myself to be stangely attractive!

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

01:03 / 04.11.04

That's weird. I find you attractively strange.

Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!

01:11 / 04.11.04

That's even better!

I've been really grateful today to have a boyfriend whose political opinions and even feelings are so closely matched to mine. Today would have been much harder to handle if I'd been with someone who'd said 'hey, why do you care, it's only politics,' or, even worse, was a Republican (shudder).

Alex's Grandma

01:16 / 04.11.04

BH;

There's nothing with wrong with, er, *blotches.*

They can be mysteriously attractive in a man.

Though not in that case, arguably.

Bed Head

01:43 / 04.11.04

Alex: Nothing against a, er, ‘weather-beaten’ face. Why, surely, broken veins can indicate travels to many distant lands with extreme climates, and a long and interesting life full of glorious experiences. Collateral damage, if you will. But, Bush’s face just doesn’t look any kind of beaten. Inexplicably.

That’s one of the problems I’ve been having, I think. A flood of inexplicables. Nothing makes sense. I don't *want* to believe that people will freely vote for evil.

Oh, er, while I'm here: reasons to be happy? Michelle Yeoh films. Specifically, Wing Chun. Joyous.

Barak Obama. Jon Stewart. My daughters.

Dubya hasn't had a beer in over a decade

It occurs to me that not only have I not had a beer for several years, but that I am also father of twins. I think I am going to throw up.

My ex-boyfriend.

(That's also a bad thing I guess.)

Papess

I like you.

Thanks to Keggers for that. *wink*

I like him too.

Well, I've had absinthe.

And now I had absinthe.

Alex, have you ever been to Cirencester? Sounds like you have.

We are being rained with ballooning spiders. Little wispy shreds of spiderweb with eeweensy little baby spiders hanging from them, floating through the air like little fairy aeronauts.
