Happy Now

I'm reading Charlie Higson's novel, "Happy Now", which is a generally unpleasant read, but may ultimately, I hope, prove satisfying, exploring as it does the search for happiness and fulfilment (and the false hopes along the way). Despite all that has happened, I stopped the "happy pills" ten days ago (just when everything kicked off) and have stayed off them. So that's good. I'm feeling positive about my work in the town. So that's good. And I'm thinking about the things that I think are good. So that's good too.
