What’s Making Me Happy {5}

Birthday week has now come and gone.

And, normally I dread my birthday but this one was actually really good and without a lot of angsting around about time and getting older. There was a bit of OMG WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE, but I think that’s probably par for the course at this age.

However, there are some things that made me happier than a bird with a french fry this week.

1. NOOK TABLET, YO.

I got a Nook Tablet for my birthday! I am so fancy now!

2. Nook Tablet Cover

I went to a local B&N to buy a cover for my precious Nook, and turns out the Kate Spade covers were 75% off. The color options were OMG I HURT YOUR EYES I’M SO PINK and black. So I went with black. I have decided it’s chic and not boring.

3. Dolce & Gabbana Frames

This next thing is both happy and sad. Because. I actually really need new glasses frames. But my stupid health insurance through work doesn’t cover vision. So these frames are, like, $200 at discount websites. And I just can’t afford them right now. So. Le sigh. BUT LOOK AT THEM. THEY ARE SO HAPPY.

4. 21 Jump Street 

I can’t believe I’m actually including this here, but so it goes. My dear friend Nigel (who, btw, told me last night that he interviewed FRAN KRANZ—Topher Brink from Dollhouse— this week. *dies*) talked me into seeing 21 Jump Street. And you guys. It is hilarious. Like, really really funny. I recommend it.

5. GAME OF THRONES STARTS TONIGHT.

JON SNOW JON SNOW JON SNOW. WILL BE ON MY TV. YES.

And those are the things that are making me happy this week.

I hope y’all have all enjoyed your weeks. And that you get thee to the nearest HBO-subscribing place you know of and watch Game of Thrones tonight.
