Simple pleasures & things that are easy to appreciate

[blackdogdeek]

i like when my daughter sees me, smiles and yells "daddy!".

I like it when my dog excitedly greets me when I come home, watching a sunrise on a clear day, making my son laugh, and Christmas morning.

Seeing your dog's tail start wagging when you bend down to pet him...

BBQ on a sunday afternoon...the calm before the workweek.

wonderous nitrous oxide.

Homemade vanilla ice cream with real vanilla beans. Making an extravagant dinner for my loved ones. The dog waiting for me at the door when I pull into the garage.

Also...

Walking barefoot in the grass
Listening to the wind rustle through the trees in my backyard on a warm Spring evening
Going on vacation with my family and having a good time

I like flying a small plane in calm air. Just trim the plane, lean back and watch the scenery go by.

Man, I wish I was out of shape enough to get a buzz from raking leaves...

Getting into bed late at night when I've left the window open and the sheets are nice and cool on my bare ass.

Learning to play something new on my guitar.

A hug from a friend who's happy to see you.

I enjoy Ribs grilled to perfection, smothered with Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce.

I enjoy A Turkey, with a layer of bacon on top, grilled at about 300 degrees for several hours.

I enjoy a roast, cooked over an open flame with a rotisserree spinning it 360 degrees each minute.

I enjoy a thick juicy delicious porterhouse steak, seared on the outside, warm and pink on the inside, tasty all the way through.

I enjoy an ice cold Guinness on a warm summers day.

I enjoy a nice warm Guinness on a cold winter day.

Raking leaves? LOL!! digging a trench, transplanting large trees, maybe. Building a garage. Stacked rock wall. Endorphins stuff.

Lets see: I've been to Anarctica for a total of 1 year of my life. Pretty much everything a person can think of would be a simple pleasure to me. One great example is: Watching the sunset. The sun is either out or the night of the sky is out!

I've actually thought about doing that. Is it worth it?

As for the thread...my cat is long dead, I'm single, and I'm graduating and having to look for a job soon, so all I care about right now is sleeping in really late

 

[Gurck]

A good bottle (or 2 o r3, or bertter yet 30) of tequila

To Jagec:
I am in the miltary. So I kinda got a free ride down there. But to answer your question. Yes it is totally worth it. If you want to see what we did you can check out my webstie at: USCGC Polar Sea On the home page look for the Antarctica Pictures tab. If you have any questions about it feel free to ask.

I like sitting in my neighborhood bar's patio in the summer, drinking cold beer, and watching women walk by.

Sorry, I started this thread first thing this morning, back when I was still groggy and happy. Now that I've had time enough to get back to hating life, work, bad drivers, etc., I'll get back to posting as usual. Thanks for your patience, guys. And I'm not gay.

Don't let the haters and people who are not as secure in their sexuality as they should be get you down.
