I have, on occasion, been accused of being permanently cranky, stressed-out and short-tempered. Unfortunately, this is more true than I like to admit – usually the direct result of one deadline or another going completely kerflooey or some other nightmare scenario. However, it's also true that, on occasion, it actually takes very little to make me happy.

Today, my Diesel Sweeties pixel pumpkin t-shirt showed up in the mail. I am wearing it now. It glows in the dark.

This makes me stupidly happy.

I am seriously considering wearing this sucker to the Pumpkin Festival down on the Common tonight. Seriously cool.
