Grad school hell -- tell me something happy?

[tzikeh]

I don't want to go into details, but red tape BULLSHIT and other hoops I have to jump through have got me on some shaky ground w/r/t next semester, and possibly NOT getting the hell out of school at my set deadline. I really need some fun and happy things to cheer me up, so tell me, if you would, what's making you happy?

I can't spend time reading or watching anything online (please don't talk to me about Vividcon, thanks), but let me know why you're in a good mood today, or show me some fun pictures, post some macros or animated gifs in your comment, tell me a stupid joke, remind me about things coming up in the future that I might like, or, well, anything. I need some happiness and good news and some laughs.

ETA: Aaaand the newborn upstairs just started screaming. Great.

Right now, what's making me happy is clameurisms. (Yeh, big surprise, I know. *g*) I've recently been rewatching some of my faves. Including a spectacular one from the Granada Sherlock Holmes TV adaptations--dunno if you ever watched those. But at the end of the episode "The Six Napoleons," there is a Holmesian clameurism that nearly MELTS MY FACE OFF. Mmmmmmmm clammity goodness.

Also: {{{you}}}

THANK YOU for the hug. I need one.

And yes, I'm shocked, SHOCKED to find that clameurisms are going on in here!

Doesn't the Napoleons one have Counselor Troi in it? I'm trying to remember a clameurism....

Daaaaamn, woman, your memory is excellent! It does indeed!

The clameurism is at the very end. Holmes has produced the solution to the case with a big ta-daaaaa. Inspector Lestrade steps forward, but instead of engaging in their usual one-upsmanship, he very straightforwardly praises Holmes, and tells him how proud of him [Holmes] they are down at Scotland Yard, ending with, "And if you come down tomorrow, there's not a man, from the oldest inspector to the youngest constable, who wouldn't be glad to shake you by the hand." Holmes' face during and after that speech is a wonder to behold, going through a dozen flickers and shades of expression as powerful feelings well their way to the surface despite all his intense efforts. Whew. ♥

I must have seen it on a rerun or something after TNG started airing. But I didn't remember that bit at the end! OMG! Claaaaaaaam. Oh, Jeremy... *sigh*
