It's the Little Things...

[Arbi Trax]

...that make life great, wouldn't you agree? I just had roast beef with Yorkshire pud, roast potatoes, 5 kinds of veg, cauliflower cheese and home-made gravy (proper beef gravy, none of that packet stuff!) I've got the day off work tomorrow, and no jobs to do, errands to run, or commitments to meet. In short, I am utterly content with life right now.


How about you, fellow Escapists? What little things have made you think "Life is sweet" recently?

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Deus Ex.

*goes back to playing more Deus Ex*

Also, kitties.

 

[tobi the good boy]

Playing Dues Ex HR, knocking one guy out with a tranq dart thus alerting the other guard to the body, each of which run over to wake the guy up and subsequently get a tranq dart to the head as well. like shooting fish in a barrel

I like my FNP-9 but I love my M1991A1. Though, it really is the little things that make life fun

 

[Cheesus333]

I completely agree. The big things just fuck everything up anyway.

Waking up at 5 AM and taking a folding chair and a can of Pepsi up to the moors and watching the sunrise to the sound of Radiohead's No Surprises [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5CVsCnxyXg&ob=av3e]. The clouds blocked the sun and I still loved it. What a fantastic morning that was.

i am lucky to have been blessed with peculiarly British gift of being able to experience the eye of the storm of life that is the perfect cup of tea.

and yes OP it is indeed the little things...

Ah my brother, my kindred spirit, me fellow Englishman.

Also, Deus Ex.
Nothing quite like using the crossbow to pin your foes to a wall in a nice little line.

Dunno if it's just me, but I love this, brings back memories of camping in our back when I was in ... good times indeed.

And now I want to do that myself. I don't live near any moors, but I might have to hit the beach one of these days. Add a thermos flask of tea and I'm sorted.
Now excuse me while I go and listen to that song.

 

[Simple Bluff]

The pleseant feeling of the breeze across my scalp everytime I cut my hair.

 

[smearyllama]

Playing Terraria for the first time and having a blast.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

My dog walking over to me and placing his muzzle on my lap, begging to be petted. Moments like that make life feel great.

I ate an entire box of Oreos by myself (over the course of several days)

You have a beach nearby!? Good God, I'd kill for a local beach to watch the Sun on. As it is, I'm about a hundred miles inland.

Yep, and yet I've never watched the sun rise from it. This is something I really need to remedy.

I had to drive around the city today looking for a new tank of propane. But where most people are usually a**holes (usually on the road) they were all good people today. That ALWAYS puts me in a good mood.
