I know it's against the LiveJournal Code, but I think the world needs a happy post. I've seen too many people complaining about the unhappy posts on their friends pages.
Today when I parked to get lunch, a man came up to me and told me how wonderful my car sounded. He has an NB and wanted to know how he could get an exhaust like that for his car. Alas, not only will NC parts not fit NBs, my exhaust is a one-off. Still, I gave him some resources to search for something, and we had a nice chat about how wonderful Miatas are and how wonderful the day was.
Later, I went for a walk by a creek. It was absolutely beautiful. I stood among the trees in the cool shade and watched the water flow by. The birds cawed at me, upset that I was in their territory, but I ignored them, content to let my hair blow in the breeze. Fish were swimming along peacefully and the spiders were keeping the bugs away, without being near me. It's such a great day out there, at least in the shade with a nice breeze. The ground was a content, rich brown and some bright green plants were growing by the creekbed. There are sign of beaver and deer around, and occasionally on my walks I get to see the deer, but today I was not so lucky.
