Default Simple Pleasures

I know we are all wealthy hedonists on SN with a taste for the finer things in life but it occured to me today that some of the smallest, cheapest, mundane things are some of the most enjoyable.

E.G.

Realising its Saturday when you thought it was Friday.

The post arriving (nothing worthwhile ever comes but its just so damn exciting).

A Good Dump (Especially when accompanied by the latest Auto Trader)

Opening a new jar of Coffee (Just me then)

Random tune on the radio you had completely forgotten about.

Pitching stuff over the side at the tip, just feel so manly.

Fixing something.

Finding a tenner in pants you havent worn for months.

New Tyres, just keep having to go and have a look (go on, I know you do)

Checking you Ebay bids.

Getting home and the wife and kids are out !

Clean sheets

Realising that something you planted isnt dead yet !

Your own Farts.

Working out MPG on a diesel (Never a Petrol)

Cheese

A good glimpse of cleavage (female/breast)

A really good storm

Snow

a good scratch

Post workout glow

I would say a good post coital glow but that is never cheap or simple.

Onanism

Swatting that annoying b4stard fly

Big Brother being over

Abi Titmuss

Mouth Wash

Imperial Leather

Mach 3 Razor blades

Beer !

Did I say Farts ?

Getting a bargain whether you wanted the item or not.






Any suggestions, yes I am in a good mood !

One I discovered last week

Launching a knackered old telly into an empty skip at the local tip
When it explodes you feel almost like a popstar

I would add:

Someone finding one of your SN posts amusing (saddo).

Finding Scoobynet is actually up.

Beating your best score in Solitaire (super saddo).

Getting the best waitress in Hooters.

Being pleasantly surprised when you do a cashpoint balance enquiry.

Sitting in a pub, at midnight, with a lovely lass, beer and wine freely flowing, totally and utterly relaxed without a care in the world.

Driving home after a hard day, with the windows open, the sun shining, and some fantastic music playing

Falling asleep on the sofa, and waking up with your feet all nice and warm as a lovely grey hound has fallen asleep on your feet

Waking up on a bright and sunny morning, realising it's 6am, turning over and seeing an Angel asleep next to you.

Third gear, 5000rpm, exiting a wet roundabout and controlling the slide, even with crap tyres.

Coming home after a week away and sleeping in your own bed.


yeah, so I'm all light and fluffy today, just in a good mood

Wink

A kiss and hug from your 8yr old daughter after a hard day at the office.

Followed by an ice cold beer

Standing back admiring the wax job on your car

A stranger walking up and complimenting you on your car out of the blue.

The sound of waves lapping against a boat on a lake whilst waiting for a rise!

The smell of freshly mown grass.

A perfect launch at the traffic lights.

Oh this is so sad.........................

*Cough* Getting it on with a fit young lady when you know you shouldn't as she's engaged *Cough*

Better still, finding out she's going to dump said fiancee as she thinks she's better off with you.

I'll keep on dreaming....
