Between coffee and some long-deferred computer upgrades it was a fairly expensive day; shopping is fun, but not as much as it used to be. I had a list, and stuck to it pretty well.

The high points of the day, I think, were two phone calls from a normally very phone-phobic friend. I was delighted to get the first one, not merely because I enjoy getting calls from my friends, but because I was pleased with the progress and trust it demonstrated. The second was simply mind-bogglingly amazing. Good work! Go you!!

OK, mudita is rejoicing in someone else's happiness - it's roughly the opposite of jealousy. What do you call the opposite of envy: pride in someone else's accomplishment? Anyway, that.

Figuring out what kind of things I can do that make me happy gave me an odd sense of accomplishment. This self-exploration thing is hard work, but I like it.
