Everyday things that make you HAPPY

I don't think I've ever made a feel-good thread before, but I think it's time for one. Simple question... what are the everyday things or the little things that make you happy?

Dunkin Donuts Vanilla Coffee (with cream and a little sugar)
Good conversations with people you haven't talked to in a while
Listening to Ryan Adams while walking to campus on a cool autumn day
My new desk chair
Volunteering for a cause I believe in
Going to sleep on a Friday or Saturday without having to wake up early in the morning
Eating a good hot meal

Those are just some. What about yours?
It's a town full of losers and I'm pulling out of here to win

    Strumming away the day's stresses on my beloved Telecaster. Heaven on earth, I tell ya.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...
  • Listening to the Hold Steady
    Drawing
    Setting my alarm 30 minutes early, and going back to sleep for a while. That's the best thing ever. :D

    Sleeping in
    My cats
    Eddie Vedder (the sight or sound of him)
    That Weird Al song "My Baby's in Love with Eddie Vedder"
    Flight of the Conchords
    My 60-year-old office-mate from the Bronx who has a shitty life but a great sense of humor
    Helping people
    Beautiful weather
    Beautiful sunsets
    Flowers

    Edit: Hey! This was my thousandth post! I've now moved from being a Soldier of Love to being Given to Fly. Seems like a good thousandth post to me. :)

    Me - quietly laughing to myself
    Sean - What are you laughing at? Oh, you're on that Pit thing again. *reads the screen* If sex were a smoothie....? What's the rest of that sentence....Eddie Vedder would be the banana?

    Lmao...god he's awesome. I knew I kept him around for a reason.

    Goofball fun with friends
    Donating blood - can't do it every day but a good feeling whenever I can.
    Silly things like the fact I painted my dining area over a year ago and still haven't broke out the ceiling white to cover up my mistakes! :D
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.
