Buying new clothes. Dunno if that makes me feminine or metrosexual or whatever. Not really fussed, I just like me some retail therapy.

Cuppa tea and custard creams before bed. Always a top way to end the day, whether it's been good or shite.

Bullshit conversations with friends, talking crap about football or films.

Having a perfect dump. They are rare, but once in a while they do come among. As some guy once said; "there is nothing more underrated than a good bowel movement."

-Watching movies and playing Co-Op games with the love of my life.

-Playing with cats. No matter how completely shitty my day has been, it's pretty difficult to stay angry while playing with a cat.

-Watching snow fall while drinking hot chocolate on a day where I don't have to go anywhere.

-Finding exceptionally good prices on things that I'm interested in buying.

-Cold weather. I don't have to run an air conditioner to keep all of our electronics cool, and I can wear the comfy warm clothing that I love to hang around the house in.

-Having super in-depth conversations with friends on topics that are bullshit (EX: what's the best sandwich to have when stuck on a desert island, ideas for unconventional restaurants, coming up with band names for a cover band even though none of us play any instruments, discussing for literally hours why "Death Bed: The Bed That Eats" is the best movie ever made, etc.)

I think I just died a little inside.
What heathen doesn't use that stuff to make chocolate milk? This is madness!

OT:
-Finding out some new piece of utterly useless, but neat anyway, information.
Reading a favorite book.
-When two Arnold Schwarzenegger movies come on TV in a row and I treat myself to a double feature (happened this Saturday with Total Recall, which I'd never seen before, and Terminator 2, a classic)
-Finding a deal on a good book, game, movie, or CD at a used bookstore (picked up a sweet old copy of The Hobbit this weekend when I went up to Alexandria to get my viola repaired)

The list goes on, but those are some recent highlights.

My friends aren't exactly little things but they never fail to make me happy. Playing with the kids (they're cats) makes me giggle like an idiot. Cuddling with my mostly-hetero-life-mate makes me happy. Cuddling in general honestly. Unlocking an achievement or trophy makes me happy. Most things with the Nintendo logo make me happy. Pizza makes me happy. Finally getting a hit on streetpass makes me happy. The scent of my favorite game shop. Memories...I am a happy person over all.

You know, even if that did make you more feminine or metro or whatever (it doesn't)
but even if it did--your un-ironic and probably not thought out use of the word
"fussed" makes you about 500% more masculine.....

When I am sick, nothing makes me feel better during those times than curling up in a blanket and playing a video game.

I don't have enough things in my life that make me happy, I wish I had more.
How about a virtual hug and some vintage photography?

Okay so what makes me happy
-cartoon rabbits
-getting an "I miss you" text from my best friend who lives in another country
-reading a good book
-positive feedback from something I've written
-receiving a postcard or hand written letter
-my seven year old cousin telling me that I'm a super-hero (many years of catching spiders and fixing boo-boos)

Nope. Nope. Not gonna say it. There is no way that you can make me say
"Pinkie Pie APPROVES!"
You're just gonna have to wonder forever what I was....
OH DARN IT!

hmm lets see what little things go i find enjoyable:

  • [li]Listening to 90's eurodance.[/li][li]Plum wine.[/li][li]Music from Bubblegum Crisis.[/li][li]Listening to the waves at midnight(I live near the sea and can't hear it during the day cause of traffic).[/li][li]Watching the colours of the horizon during a sunset.[/li][li]Looking at the cloud patterns generally (Storm patterns are interesting).[/li][li]When playing an mmo, doing speed runs in dungeons. I love being efficient with my time. A habit i picked up from City of heroes. RIP old friend.[/li][li]Having a plan i made come together (yes i know this is from the a team but i love it when things work out). [/li]

There are none such things left for me. Happiness is a fleeting feeling only felt in the rarest of occasions that day to day life does not bring me.

SWEET!
Let me guess--"Devil & Angel's Kiss" is your favorite?
okay i had to pull out my old soundtrack three disc CD set, the song you are referring was disk 3, track 7. The name was in Kanji so it took me awhile to find it.

I like that song but it's not my favourite.
my favourite would be between these two:
Konya wa Hurricane [http://youtu.be/y48ZwmVF-2M]
Ikari O Komete Hashire [http://youtu.be/_aYW9fSYvH0]

I'm quite pleased, this was an excuse to work the table commands and stuff hehe. I'm a big sucker for music from that anime hehe.

Let's see:
Waking up in the morning and thinking that I have to get up now and go to university, only to realise that it's weekend and I can continue to sleep.
It's cold outside and it rains/snows but I don't have to go anywhere, so I can stay in my warm house and lie in bed, read a book, play games or watch movies etc.
It's night, it rains and I'm taking a shower in the dark while I hear the raindrops hit the window.
Being completely immersed in a good game or book.

There are some more things but I don't remember them right now.

I love original BGC, including the music. One of my very first anime, waaaay back when.
And I *will* keep pointing out that there was a tribute to it in the Avengers movie until
I am heard!
