    Nordstrom's cafe in the Columbia, Maryland mall
    My twin and I in her car driving somewhere
    The ability to burn compilation CDs and podcast, basically be my own DJ.
    Autumn chill on a sunny day with the full colors of the season exploding
    Memories from a couple Pearl Jam concerts (Boston 06 #1, and Philadelphia 05)
    Bookstores - they are my *happy place* (s)
    Looking out windows
    Walking anywhere on a gorgous spring or autumn day
    looking out the window after a snowfall
    Christmas CDs
    Reading Christopher Moore books usually make my laugh out loud
    I'm getting into the Office, and it's hilarious, as it That 70s show

    of course all kinds of things but mostly
    traveling to see pearl jam- love the whole thing
    I like to fly and
    staying in a hotel- fun!
    exploring the new city
    meeting new people
    anticipation of the lottery-praying- thinking I'm a bit let down but no cause then
    the concert! doesn't really matter where your seats are
    meeting the fans and partying
    doing it all over if you're lucky enough too same city or drive to the next.
    the memories and a box full of ticket stubs
    that makes me happy

    hanging out and laughing with my friends and family
    share things that make me happy with other people
    harmony
    going to a concert, get squished and the stomach starts immediately releasing endorphin! hmmm!
    smoking :mrgreen: and listen to music (love the combo)
    spring and summer (be happy if you don`t have four seasons...)
    festivals

    .......and also a lot of other things. but i can say for me the most important thing that makes me really happy is the fact being surrounded by people which i love so much!!!

    The Steelers defense not blowing leads in the 4th quarter of games they should win
    ...got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...
  • Seeing my almost 2 year old son running towards me yelling "DADDY DADDY DADDY" when I came home from work
    Seeing him jump up laughing every morning when I go into his room to get him out of his crib... I strive to be in that good of a mood EVERY SINGLE morning.
    My wife's laugh
    A nice, cool sunny morning
    Ice cream
    Shifting from 2nd gear to 3rd
    Seeing the Penguins or Steelers win
    Watching a GOOD hockey or football game
    When my dogs sleep on my wife's side of the bed
    Watching a good move
    Listening to a good song
    The beach
    The first good snow of the winter
    My whole life
    was like a picture
    of a sunny day
