Much more trivial than that ^^^, but these make me happy.

Today I learnt my cat's "word" for "bird". He only makes that sound when a bird (be it a crow or a magpie or a robin) lands in the garden.
He has a different "word" for telling me that his favourite visiting kitty has arrived for her dinner, too. 0 -

My cat does this too. It's a really strange chattering sound reserved especially for birds! So cute

That's what he used to do when he saw them as prey (now he's not in a fit state any more), now he makes a flat mrew-meh sound that to me means something like "Look, a befeathered interloper, quick, get him off my lawn!". 0 -

My friends got married! They've been together seven years but never mentioned weddings at all. This morning they sent our group chat two photos of them in fancy clothes in a woods in their home country with the caption "we'll have the party later". They're two of the best people I know and they look so, so happy in the photos (one of which was of them wearing face masks and standing two meters apart). I can't stop looking at the pictures and smiling. 0

It was our cat who then walked beside me for the rest of it. When we got back to the front door of the house, the sun had come out so she started rolling around on her back
That's a sign of pure love right there

Watching the SpaceX manned launch live, T+10 and it's all gone well. The first stage landed successfully on the drone ship, which is named Of Course I Still Love You. Why such a weird name? It's a tribute to the late SF author Iain M Banks, whose Culture novels included sentient spaceships with twisted senses of humour ...
Death has this much to be said for it:
You don’t have to get out of bed for it.

They bring it to you—free.— Kingsley Amis

I have re-claimed my estate! Not really, but I've lived here for most of my life, but I hadn't been on our green in many, many years.
This morning I went out to sit on a bench that I hadn't sat on in over 10 years, even though it's only 30 metres from my house. I used the time to try out a drone that I bought 2 years ago (but I lost the instructions...so not ideal).
Back in my day, we used to play football on the green (jumpers as goals) but nowadays the kids have shop-bought goalposts. Somehow, the goalposts are always left in the corner of the green outside my house, so this morning I went out and left them outside of the families who use them! If anybody saw me, I'm sure they would have said "Weirdo!".
