August Happiness Challenge -- Day 28

Today’s happiness: I'm going to Hollywood! If I had a bucket list, going to the TCM Film Festival would be on it. And in 2019, I'll be joining "My Tribe" in Hollywood for a wallow of classic films. As soon as the announcement was made, I booked a room* for just $88/night. I'm using my AA miles to get to and fro. I'm going to spend a long weekend hanging out with classic movie fans! 

*A studio apartment through Airbnb. If I choose to, I can cook and save myself a little more money.

Each day in August you are to post about something that makes *you* happy. Pretty simple. And, it doesn't even have to be every day if you don't want it to be. It's a great way to remind ourselves that there are positive things going on in our lives, our communities, and the world.



August Happiness Challenge -- Day 27

Today’s happiness: The kindness of strangers. As I was unhappily hauling my fat ass up the steep stairs to the train, a woman on the way down passed me. 

"I have a crush on your haircut," she said. "I want your hair." 

"Thanks." 

I went on up to the platform. She headed down onto the street. We will never see each other again. But she made me happy.
