I read a book while I was in FL earlier this summer by the above title, and it is one of the best memoirs I've read. One of the author's themes was simply that we are all personally responsible for ensuring our own happiness.
Yesterday after work (RIGHT after work) some of my co-workers took me out to have my first official beer, which was really cool. They're great people. The only problem was that drinking right after work (one beer turned into a beer sampler, and thankfully I had help with it!!!) ended up pretty much canceling any other plans I might have made, or wanted to make, for the evening. I was kind of bummed about it, especially given my past record with birthdays*, but really - that's just part of life. Next time I'll think about it more carefully.
*The ultimate proof of the existence of self-fulfilling prophecies. One of these years, though, I will put it back in its place.
