Snowflake Challenge: Day 1

[fullupwithfire]

I'm gonna make this a short one today because pain is fucking up my ability to concentrate. But Snowflake is here, and I love this challenge, so I wanted to try and get it started off.

Day 1: In your own space, talk about your Happy Place—the things that give you joy, calms you or keeps you sane. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it.

In a physical sense, our apartment is becoming this. Having a space where I don't feel like I have to put anything on and can just try and relax (as much as I ever do, heh) has been nice. Having my cats running around, demanding love. Having my partner (brightandravenous) around, which makes everything a little bit better than when I don't.

In a less physical and specific sense of it:

Any place and time where I can sing loudly and not get admonished or side-eyed for it is a happy place.
Reading the same fics over and over, especially the ones that can give me a very particular twist in the heart and stomach and then make it better.
A good ritual can put me in a happy place.
Watching good fanvids, or alternately, choreography videos.
Successfully making food.

I feel you on all of those, but especially a place where it's okay to sing as loudly as you like.
