happy

(perky voice) "Ms. Franson? My name is Kevin with Chem Lawn. Several of your neighbors are clients of ours. What would we have to do in order to add you and your lawn to that list?"

"You would have to be practically free."

(awkward silence)

"Really?"

"Oh yeah!" (enter hysterical laughter)

"Ok, well you have a nice day, ma'am."

Most everything else about the day was blah, but for some reason, that made me really happy. The kids have been good; that made me happy. Scott was in pain, but is feeling better; that made me happy. Scott's parents are here to see if he would eat anything from Schwaan's; that makes me happy. M wants me to get her a pet swan; that would not make me happy. She is reading over my shoulder and saying that Scott wants me to come up and entertain his parents; happy.
