Too much of a good thing is just enough for me -- except when it comes to being "Happy." In a desperate attempt to find Happiness, I hit as many happy hours as I could over the course of two weeks. I ate sushi, burgers, oysters and pizza, and drank margaritas, mojitos, beer and tequila.
My tummy and head are a mess. I can't say that I'm too happy about that.
But I discovered that yes, there are enough happy hours to make you feel good for a day -- even if your boss is a jerk, gas prices are sucking you dry, and you're tired of Unhappy Hours in bars where drunks grovel in their beer and chicken-wing heads drool BBQ sauce all over themselves.
In other words, these places are affordable and fun. Just don't overdose on them, OK?
Happy factor rated on a scale of one to five.
Bar Cento, 1948 West 25th St., Cleveland, 216-274-1010.


Hours: 4:30-7 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
The deal: Beer, wine and cocktails $4; mini-meals $3 to $6.
Notes on a cocktail napkin: The veggie burger rocks. So do the beer-and-butter steamed mussels. So does the vinyl they spin here -- Mott the Hoople!
Happy factor: FIVE.
