Tell the farms about those little things that make you go 'fuck yeah'.

I enjoy drinking coffee early in the morning behind a mosquito net over my open garage. Those little blood suckers come in clouds just banging against the net trying to get at me, but they can't. Sometimes I hold my fingers just out of reach and watch them struggle to get their sucker bits through the net to get me, but never let them. Sometimes I sit right behind the net and spray them with alcohol and watch them drop.
 
I love to swim. Bike riding can be fun, long walks in the woods, hitting the gym, but swimming is better. Particularly being in a large body of water completely alone is a special feeling.

Definitely. Ive got a little kayak/paddle board like thing that I will strap some snacks to and go to the empty park of a nearby lake and just chill. So good.
 
Morning coffee is absolutely untoppable GOAT. It's my reason to live, family and friends and all that shit come a distant second. A ciggy and a beer while chatting with someone are great too.
 
I know that exactly 4 minutes after pouring tea from my thermos into the cup, it will have that deeply comforting temperature that seemingly warms your entire body without scalding your mouth when drinking.
A quiet moment and hot tea of any kind is a simple, but priceless pleasure.
 
I like to roll up six or seven joints, pack some sandwiches, get a little bottle of whiskey and a flask of water, and go out into the woods for hours.
If I see somewhere scenic, I plant myself there and just watch the world go by.
If the weather is good, I often bring my guitar.
Sometimes I like to sit a little off the walking trail and play folk songs.
John Barleycorn, Tom O' Bedlam, or The Cutty Wren, that sorta thing.
 
Wake up on a Sunday morning, grab a cold coffee from the fridge and load up a video about North Korea and realise things could be worse.
 
A food day. It varies from time to time, but right now Fridays are, unintentionally, my pizza day. The difference from me and what Null presumably does is that I make my own dough and bake it fresh. Something about freshly baked pizza is just... a simple pleasure that can't be beat. Also makes good leftovers for lunch the next day.

I like a tiny little kitten and a basket of his friends
I like the sound the kittens make when I pat them on the head

I like the presence of a stranger and a big sharp knife
I like Toxoplasmosis and the miracle of life

I love riding my bike. With a bike you can go anywhere you want. But on the simple side, commuting on a bike instead of the car, even in bad weather makes that start of the day so much better.
