I suppose getting pleasure from the inconsequential bits of life is important. I think I'll come up with a dozen other things that make me happy.
Sliding into newly washed bed sheets. Having the hamster on my lap and petting it. Solving a computer hardware or software problem. Sitting around the living room with Jay. Sneaking an occasional Whopper or Big Mac. Watching a good HD prime time TV show. Teaching a class that is exceptionally well organized. Taking the time to go for a leisurely walk. Planning for any vacation whether long or short. Getting a good DVD in the mail from Zip Canada. Noticing whenever gasoline drops below $1 / litre. Sipping an evening glass (or two) of u-brew wine.
