Post there the "little things" you like in life.

For example, me?

I enjoy the smell when the Air conditioner comes on after winter.

I enjoy the smell before a storm (been told its actually Ozone)

I enjoy the smell when rain first falls after a long dry summer.

I enjoy putting on clothes after they've been in the dryer. All warm and SNUGGLY.

I enjoy, half way through the week, realizing that the weekend isn't really that far off.

I love the feel when you put brand new socks on.

I enjoy sharpening a pencil until it has an absolutely perfect tip. Then admiring it in the light and haughtily refusing to let anyone write with it and thus ruin its' beauty.

I enjoy when you buy a book from a secondhand bookshop and there is a bookmark in it.

When it's raining and you're inside a conservatory.

I think that's an urban myth, but if it's true, don't sniff too much. I think Ozone is toxic (the body absorbs it because it is oxygen but can't use it so you suffocate).

What do I like most? I always say I like toast... But really, I'm quite clichéd and enjoy the smell of freshly cut grass.

You're so weird :D I read those comments in the voice of your avatar, Aly. It made me chuckle.

I enjoy short power outages (long ones result in me not being on my computer : O)
I enjoy being an ass to those around me that don't matter >.>


Can we do things we don't enjoy too?

I don't enjoy being touched by anyone. That means no hugs, no highfives, etc.]
I don't enjoy the majority of the people in the world.

Crunching leaves beneath your shoes in Autumn.

Waking up early in a winter morning with the radiator on, then realising it's the weekend and going back to sleep

Waking up at the weekend and thinking "Oh wait no work today" and going back to sleep.

EDGE magazine.

Clean, cool sheets.

Sitting in a car during a thunderstorm.

Making a complete map build from scratch and finding upon first compile that there's not one leak.

The smell of magic markers.

Cats purring.

Hammocks.
And tents.

+1 for crunching leaves. Especially when they're in the gutter.

And I love it when you're driving down the abandoned motorway, and you kill a zombie by hitting it with the door of your car.
Gotta enjoy the little things.

I enjoy simple texts with only a "=)" It lets me know someone was thinking about me.

I enjoy piano covers of popular songs or game songs such as these one two amazing youtube people

I enjoy heavy rain and how it tells the world to slow down and be quiet.

I enjoy seeing kindness and chivalry because for the most part its dead.

I enjoy when i come home at 1:30am from work and watching my fiance sleep for a few minutes before i fall asleep.

I enjoy seeing "life" happen to "kids"

I "really" enjoy when karma comes back around.

I enjoy a 10 second part when I'm driving home from work where the road and all around it is covered in woods.

I enjoy spending a day with my family. even though they live an hour away i don't see them nearly as much as i should.

I enjoy mapping aesthetically only and if something comes of it all the better.

I enjoy camping. real camping and also camping that doesn't involve a lot with running water and a built firepit..

I enjoy suntea on a nice sunny day.. in the shade at a park like central park.

Also finding something you've lost. It's the best feeling.
Recently found my aluminum 'Slammer' from the schoolyard game Pogs. Loved this thing... says 1994 on it. That's 16 years of absence!

I enjoy the feeling of a cat just completely falling asleep on your lap, like an extremely warm, purring sack of potatoes on you.

I enjoy that slow time between when you first wake up all groggy, and you stay in bed until you are fully awake.

I enjoy wearing no pants.

I enjoy that first chip from a newly opened bag.
