The Happiest Day Of Your Life

[ER]

...
Did you ever do anything dangerous, as in truly life-threateningly hazardous, not sure you're going to come through it, but you do, and when it's truly behind you the feeling is intoxicating euphoria?
...
It did make for a happy day.

Yes, I remember climbing onto the roof of the Alexander Lodge in Spring Lake, NJ out of the third floor window and up the shingled eave at an 85 degree angle, above the concrete driveway / port, so I could walk at the "widow's walk" (really a wrought iron painted ornament) on top of the building.  My older sister led the way, bold as she was.  My other brother and baby sister declined if I remember right.  I wasn't scared of nothing! 


To quote ER : "It did make for a happy day." 

Heck, yeah! Quite the feeling, innit?

With all the nonsense I've been through in my life - abandonment, abuse (physical, verbal, etc) living through a civil war etc - I can say that I have never, in my 52 years of life, had a totally happy day. Happy moments, happy hours etc yes but a happy day in total? Never.

Some people might think that I'm a pretty miserable SOB but I'm not. Young peeps think I'm a cool old guy, kids like me and most people respond positively to me so, that's me.

Then you're definitely due a happy day.

I have had many happy days and I feel like picking just one out would be doing the others a disservice.  However, while definitely not the happiest day, I have to say that the last day of school before summer vacation was always so great.  There was just such an amazing feeling about knowing I have all summer to stay up late and do a whole lot of whatever I wanted, watch late-night tv and movies, shower whenever I wanted (or rather didn't want to - I was kind of a gross teenager), have sleepovers in the middle of the week... now I have to wait for retirement to do that again.  Or until I hit the lottery.  I have high hopes.

Perfect answer! School ending was always bliss.

Never.

So many different types of happiness. The day I got married and the birth of Ash is obviously a couple of highlights. Anytime I go to see a good band live I get super hyper and high. Concerts like that are about the only time I feel any connection to the rest of the human race and I even almost feel part of the crowd. The year and a half I worked with two guys called Baldy and Scott were the favourite time of my working life. I doubt I'll ever enjoy working quite as much again as I did for those days. The night a girl called Tanya seduced me...

I have a lot of good memories and while I have plenty of bad ones too I know what wolf I'd rather feed.

I like that. Is it a Scottish saying?
