The little pleasures life has to offer.

Let's list some of those nice little gifts life offers us on occasion or more often. I'll start.

- Putting on socks straight out of the drier. Heck, putting on any clothes straight out of the drier.

- When one's favourite sport team beats a dreaded/hated enemy club.

- A nice cold beer or glass of red wine.

- A simple, well-meant thank you.

🙂

 
Ice cold diet coke after a run on a hot day.

Lying in a sunbeam on carpet. I sound like a cat.

Finding a quarter on the sidewalk.

A casual conversation with a good friend.
 
It's strange, but I get a great feeling of peace when I wake up in the middle of the night and realize that I have several more hours to sleep before I have to get up and be productive.
 
- Cookies and a tall glass of milk.

- Contraceptives. Without them, we would be fvcked. Or not fvcked. One way or the other we would be fvcked.

- The feeling you get when you help someone, compliment them, or just do something nice in general.

- Computers and the internet. They enable you to do things quickly that would've either taken a long time to do or would have been impossible.

- After dieting on rabbit food (celery, lettuce, carrots, you name it) for a couple weeks- a nice, thick, big, juicy steak.

- Snuggling with a loved one.
 
Just when you think that you're screwed things turn around and you come out alright.

Getting good news, like when I got excepted to my choice university.

Seeing family after being away for a while.

snuggling with your SO.

Acing a test.

For some reason when I make a fresh start I feel good, moving into a new place, starting a new term.
 
- Waking up on the weekends, and afterwards going outside and standing in the warmth of the sunlight.

- Getting a well reciprocated hug.

- Hearing someone tell you they miss you, with all the sincerity in the world.

- Hanging out / napping on a rainy day with family / girlfriend.

It alright, I feel the same way 🙂 You wake up and at first your like "d@mn Im awake" but then you look at the clock and you still got a couple of hours till you gotta get up. I dont know about that being productive part though 😛
 
Hearing from an old friend just out of the blue.

Sitting back, throwing on some music and some good headphones and tuning out everything else.

Watching movies and playing games with a group of good friends. Alochol can be added, but I'm talking about the type of friends where alcohol isn't even needed for it to be a great time.

The person that you see at a party/wedding/gathering that you can talk to so you don't have to sit and listen to all the other people gossiping about everything.

Congrats on getting excepted to your choice university...

By any chance, was it one of those ones where you can URN a diploma online?
 
Getting a job offer that starts two weeks later so you can spend quality time with family, friends, and just relaxing a bit.
 
Coffee in the morning
Those days when I am able to do absolutely nothing productive, yet not be behind
Afternoon naps
Getting the sudden urge to listen to THAT ONE SONG, and actually being able to listen to it no matter where I am (thanks to my iPod)

I also love waking up early before the alarm, immediately feeling upset that I have to get up, then realizing I can go back to sleep for a while! This might be my favorite 😀
