Surely something good happened to you today

This didn't happen to me specifically but it is a reminder that in order to find the good in the world we need to look for it. Turkey, sadly, experienced a devastating earthquake that has killed thousands, and destroyed a lot of property. What is good in that? Well, Israel is sending aid to a Muslim country. The US and Russia are sending aid to help. I hate that the tragedy had to happen to do it but it's beautiful to see normally opposing sides working together.
 
Got my new downstairs router set up. Now my whole house is wired for ethernet!

(I try to avoid WiFi whenever possible. The only gear I have on WiFi are my iOS devices. Everything else is wired.)
 
Well I went and babysit on Wednesday night so my sisters could go out and because I do afternoon I took the day off work, then this morning I was heading to work and my Thursday shift got cancelled was like "YES!" So now I have to work Friday but I was hoping that got cancelled and I could have 5 day weekend. I'm casual so I don't get paid if I don't work but as I say to other people, when I was fulltime I used to take a holiday every three months anyway and I don't normally take time off as a casual so if it comes up I ain't complaining.
 
There's a Smothers Brothers song about a guy who fell into a vat of chocolate and he yelled FIRE because no one would hurry to rescue him if he yelled CHOCOLATE!.
It's an old joke. The version I heard was about a guy who fell into a bin full of manure. ;)
