Today's Bad Day was brought to you by the "10,000 Things to be Happy About" calendar my mother bought me. I guess she reads my bad days too much, and gets concerned, as mothers will. So. Without further ado, today's 5 things to be happy about:

- renting animated videos for kids
- leftovers in Tupperware
- going away for your anniversary
- homemade pretzels and a variety of mustards
- ponds glazed with ice
