What are your simple pleasures?

Those things you return to again and again for fun, comfort and/or relaxation.

My list in no particular order:

Some nasty friction
:coffee: Full bodied, extra strong
My lastest horror novel
Music in my car with my new system
A good movie, Day of the Dead, opening 3/19 is next on my list.
 
Little things. Enjoying nature. Good music. And as dorky as it sounds, my cross-stitching. I've been working on a picture for my mom since Christmas break so today might be a good time to work on it.

Not even remotely dorky. :) Boy I wish I had the patience and dedication for that kind of thing. In that vein I did watercolors for years but stopped about a year back since I felt I couldnt meet my personal standards of quality.
 
A good book.
Warm cup of tea.
Hot bath.
Puzzles with my little girl.
Coloring books w/the little one.
Hotdogs.

Blame Mom. She's the one that got me hooked on this. In fact, she brought this design to me asking me to do it because she doesn't have the skills or patience to do it. lol. A massive fruit basket. But it gets my mind occupied.
 
Listening to music.


Playing music.


Writing music.


Watching live musical performances.


Teaching music. (depends on the student....heh)

....and of course...... :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:
 
thinking of people i love, and who love me :heart:

time to myself

winning or succeeding at whatever silly thing it is at the time

knowing everything is OK

life, really, but thats not so simple :)
 
learning to save money
listening to good music on the car's CD system.
falling asleep while watching something on tv when you have nothing to do the next day
talking to people on IM.
learning new things i can use in my day to day life.
 
I like to sit home and watch a DVD or movie knowing for the next 2 hours I will be entertained and with nothing else to do.

If it`s raining or snowing outside and my wife is by my side, all the better. lol

do you mind sharing your age? I pictured you as being kinda close to my age and I think its really cool you carrying along this hobby. My grandma did a lot of sewing and cross-stitching but more out of necessity than hobby. That side of the family is from Chihuaha which is a particularly poor state in Mexico. If something tears, fix it, need to give a gift, make it.
 
- making my baby neice smile
- falling asleep under a tree on a warm summer day at my parents house
- the wind in my hair
- a rainy day, a comforter, a fireplace and a good book

I'm 22. I'll be 23 in November. Fairly young I guess to be doing this type of stuff. And what's funny is that I can count a cross-stitch picture with no problem (I don't do stamped designs), but I can't sew a hem or fix a tear or anything. I could probably sew a button on if I really really tried. :)

Oh! I forgot hot showers! I loooooooove those. And a massage too if I can get anyone to give me one. I would kill for a neck rub right now. :)
 
And let me say I like the fact that the guys are expressing themselves fully. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. I like it when guys act like men. :) :)
 
A good movie
Listening to good music
Watching TV while eating on my couch
Talking with a hot chick

Hell yeah, we like simple pleasures.

I couldn't imagine busting my ass all day, then coming home and have nothing to look forward to. As long as I know there are some frozen fruit bars (and I mean the ones with real fruit in them), in the fridge, i am a pussy cat.

If not, then it's a road trip to Giant, and cleaning out their freezer.
 
- Long drives by myself during Autumn or Spring listening to my favorite songs
- Curling up with someone I love to watch a movie or sleep
- Rainy/snowy days with a book, cozy couch, blanket and my cat
- Twilight
- Watching shooting stars during late summer
- Going to my parents' house and watching old home movies with the family

I was thinking about you guys admitting to things other than the stereotypically masculine ones.
 
Listening to music
Watching my 3 year old nephew play and discover things
 
Pulling up to my little nephews place in my truck and having them all run out screaming "Uncle Mr. Black!" and then giving them a big hug:)

Oh, like fixing the car under a shade tree? Or after we fix it, having a cold beer?

LOL

Here's my dream simple pleasure. I want to install a shower with about 6 shower heads and turn them all on at once, then stand there for about an hour

It would be like standing naked in the pouring rain, and I'm all about getting naked.
 
bs'ing on here
chatting on aim to new people
speaking to my friends on the phone
eating lunch out with friends
a day with no human contact
cold and rainy outside-warm and snug inside
watching good comedy on television
discovering good new music
