Kent
I don't know if it's a few days of sun, the upcoming olympics or just spending time with my family but I can't think of things that piss me off at the moment so thought I would try this angle instead; the little things that make life worth living.

For me:

  • The first sip of a pint after a long day at work
  • Sitting out in the sun reading a great book
  • Getting into sports that I had forgotten existed at the olympics like slalom kayaking and taekwondo
  • Having my 2 year old son running at me with a big smile on his face when I have been at work.
  • watching penguins at the zoo
 
A good list Kent and a good question.
The first beer (bit greedier than you)
In the sun with a good book definitely
Ambling around a beautiful scene in shorts and sunglasses -places like N.Norfolk or Palma
I recently saw sea otters at Lisbon Oceanarium and they are so cute they are unbelievable (Lisbon is worth a visit)

When I was taxiing, you'd pick up scantily dressed young women at 2 - 3 am in Winter! I knew I was over the hill when I used to look at them, showing their knickers, nipples like Chapel hat-pegs, and I'd think, "My God, she'll catch her death!"

<doh>
