The picture representing what makes me happy can be seen

here
at
trolleys'
oddments journal.
I don't want to repost without permission permission granted, but do click, because I want you all to go see not only that picture, but the other ones she did, too. So go. While I talk about what makes me happy, day 7, which is,
Fandom
People you've never met drawing you pictures or writing you fic to your specifications. People with whom you can spend hours talking about the way two boys look at each other. Talented, generous, caring, loving, squeeful, funny, bright, articulate, sexy, wonderful people.
I spent yesterday with
skyblue_reverie and
ennui_blue_lite, and we spent hours talking about fic and fandom, more hours playing Rock Band, ate delicious Indian Buffet for lunch, and then capped off the evening lying on the sofa watching Saved, which is one of my favourite movies of all time. And, yep, it was fandom who brought me these awesome women.
Fandom brought me lots of lovely cards, including, today, from
tiffosis and
deirdre_c. Thank you! ♥
Fandom is also the co-sponsor of yesterday's happy-making: writing.
And fandom brings you places to spread the joy, like this:

More fun than you can have with skinmags and shaving gel!

I... had to take out the text and add it separately--NON-CENTERED--below the link pic. *pink*

Nearly all of us who've posted to pimp it haven't put anything else in our entries other than that, so they show up at the very top of the entry. My stylesheet has entry icons on MY journal page and my f-list journal page show up on the right-hand side, with an allowance of 20px or so of whitespace between the icon and any entry text. So what happens when I post your code is, the pic part of the link is offset to the left by 20px, but the next beneath it isn't because it falls BELOW the entry icon area. If that makes sense?! *facepalms*
So there's nothing at all wrong w/ your code or anything like that; it is just me and my bizarre anxiety over things that are not properly aligned. *hangs head*
I haven't had any caffeine yet - can you tell? *g*

Every day I see your thankful for list, yesterday it was writing, if memory serves and it was my story you were writing and then every day the phone rings or Jer walks in or there's something that drags me away and then you... you go and do this for me, and I don't fucking CARE what's going on. -grin- I don't care if there's an EARTHQUAKE in the MIDDLE OF ILLINOIS in the MIDDLE OF WINTER-- it can wait.
You are one of my ... just, my biggest reasons for _being_ in fandom at all. You are so marvelous that there aren't even words, Sarah.. and those words extend much further than just, "Hi there, you're awesome in fandom." You're so much more to me. I hope you know that, sweetie. <3

And worry not. I have a handy envelope slicer, and was not remotely thwarted by sticker vomit.
