Poll: On a scale of one to 10 (ten being the happiest) how happy are you?

happiness is such a transitory thing, even when I'm there, I'm still usually tinged blue

I feel like a 1. But when I think of all the things that could be worse and I'm actually pretty lucky, even though I'm not happy, I just couldn't vote that.

That is one of my favorite themes. I am not a Darfur Villager who has lost his family, is starving, and in constant fear of my life. That's a 1. I might not be happy but I know that I'm fortunate.

I'd have to go with a 9, currently.

And it appears that, so far, I'm the only one to vote that.

I'd be a little happier if I could figure out the guy I'm seeing... seems interested enough... but isn't doing much about it. >.>

maybe he's not that into you...

I would say a 6. Things are going pretty well, but the work stress is bogging me down from making me fully happy and then there are other looming issues, but for the most part I'm manging in my contentness.

I went for 6 as well. Just over the line into happy. Because a lot of things are going pretty well, but I'm bad at my job and stressed out about it, and that takes up most of my time, so it definitely colors everything else in my life.

In school? About a 6. Outside of school, about an 8. So I voted 7.

is a definite 10!!! oO Happiness is having a doggie...petting my kitties....loving my Matt!Oo

oO Happiness is a brand new laptop... hearing sme bbshop... posting onliiiiiiine Oo

Only because I'm scared it won't last, which is taking the edge off the happy :D

if it wasn't for my job, i'd be a 8 or 9 (maybe even 9 1/2 in four beers time...;-)) but all things included i'd say today i'm a 3.

I voted 3 but seeing the nice shape of the graph made me happy, raising it a bit. Then seeing that the mode of voting Fruheads was a happy 8 made me happier and that the median was a 7 happier still. In other words the process of taking the poll changed my happiness. I still think it is about a 3.4 which rounds down to 3.

Wait a second that observation raised my happiness to a 3.5 rounded up to 4.

But wait, I already voted 3 and can't change it. that lowers it back to a 3.

But wait...
