Wonderful pleasures in life

We all have our little pleasures or little things that make us feel all wiggly inside. Add your own little pleasures.
    Custard on its own, no cake, just custard. Yum! Scratching your itchy ear with a cotton wool bud - dangerous but oh so satisfying. The end of a box of corn flakes when there's all the little bits, they seem to taste nicer. Sneezing, it's like a mini orgasm! Hearing a song you loved but couldn't find on the radio. Hugging a cat. Ironing... do not know why but I find it so relaxing. Stretching in a warm bed first thing in the morning. Watching a thunderstorm whilst undercover. Waking up to find yourself tickling your arm, feels wonderful! When you've been sat on your arm over night, and the blood starts to run back in - do you move it for that 'tnnnnnnnnnnnng' feeling or wait until it goes? TNNNNNNNNNNNNNG!

Can't think of any more at the moment!

    You are welcome round my house :wink:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Taking 2 Tramadols and listening to my MP3 with "random" selected...til about 3am.

    Finishing a sketch, and someone saying, "That's pretty good".

    Post-ride, exercise, circuits "glow".

    Waking up thinking, " God, I'm still here ! "

    My family

    Have not smoked for 6 months

    Have manged to disperse the worst of my pot belly ( why does the body change so much when you hit 40)

    Holiday in 3 weeks

    Coming home after 30 miles on a bike when 2mth ago 7 was my limit

    +1 Scratching your itchy ear with a cotton wool bud - dangerous but oh so satisfying.

    Three of my favourite things have already been mentioned:

    - Having your back scratched
    - Cotton bud in an itchy ear
    - A good stretch in the morning

    Also:

    - Having an afternoon nap - specifically that 'inbetween' feeling moments before you drift into sleep...
    - First cold beer on a hot day
    - Waking up and realising it's one of those rare days when you don't have to do anything... at all... all day.

    Looking at the above, in the next life I should be a (beer drinking) cat.

    I like watching your wife sleep too. Well what did you think the peep hole in the ceiling is there for?

    A clear night looking at the stars and identifying a constellation that's eluded you or tracking down a planet.

    The lightheaded euphoria at getting £x00s taken off of your overdraft after half an hour of barely controlled rage at the bank - priceless!

    Cold beer and medium rare burger after getting done with the yardwork.
    Getting through the entire list of chores in a weekend(rarely happens as the wife keeps adding to it)
    Tequila, the hounds and wife snuggled around and a good movie on TV.

    Finishing the Sunday Nightshift, driving home on Monday morning for 3 days off when everyone else is on their way to a week of work. Getting in, MrsNapD in a flap trying to get the kids sorted for school/nursery and I just go to bed and lie back without a care in the world and drift off to sleep.

    Even better in winter when it's freezing but the bed is still toasty warm :o

    Oh, and a really good solid poo that requires minimal wiping is fantastic.

    Bunneh, you are also welcome at my house.
    Farting loudly

    You are not.
    The above is a post in a forum on the Intertubes, and should be taken with the appropriate amount of seriousness.
  • This gets me every time: little kids in buggies who shout out ''Bike!'' as I go past - they seem to get so much simple pleasure from being able to recognise and pronounce the word

    Yeah, but what precedes that word is " Mum!, heres that man riding naked again on his...." :D

    getting up at 6am and cycling through the French countriside for two and a half hours to some remote rural village, having a double espresso and fresh croissant (or two) and plotting a different route home.

    did that twice on hols this year; sheer bliss!



    +1 for satisfying farts and poos, too!
