Can we do "Tell me something great that happened to you today?" again?

This was a terrific question that SuperMouse asked a few months ago. I’ve been feeling pretty “novembery” lately and it seems like many in the collective have also, so I thought this would be fun to revive.

I’ll start. Walking to work on campus yesterday, I passed the children’s museum and glanced at the picnic area to the side of the museum. Lo and behold, there’s a purple 8 foot statue of a Stegosaurus (not Barney!) lurking casually back in the woods. Gave me a chuckle the whole day.

What fun, great, small or large thing happened to you?
