Coming back to your own bed after a long trip
But after those killer sleeps in nightmare paradise, it's always a great feeling to return to the warm and cozy comfort of your sweet, heavenly bed. Yes, you're like a bear scraping together filthy leaves and warm mud for a long winter of hibernation or a soaring eagle swooping home from the windy treetops to the twiggy goodness of your comfy nest.
Your dented pillow, warm flannel sheets, and preset alarm clock wait for you.
So welcome home, baby.
You made it.
AWESOME!
Picking the fastest moving line at the grocery store checkout
Motor around filling your basket with food before spying the checkouts and picking your poison.
Avoid people with baggies of random herbs that require code look-ups, skip the double cashier with training mode warning signs, and forget the notion that you can bag as quickly as the guy doing it full time.
Picking the fastest moving line at the grocery store is such a great high. When you get it right you're like the undercover cop of the store -- spying customers, eyeballing cashiers, and then swooping in smartly to get the job done in style.

The Kid's Table
It's generally a rickety card table from the basement pushed beside a yellow plastic one from the playroom that ends up turning Grandma's hallway into an eat-in kitchen. Sometimes it's two different heights, sometimes the chairs are broken and, usually, the whole thing is covered in a plastic Christmas tablecloth freshly ripped from the dollar store cellophane.
No matter what, though, The Kids Table a great place to find burps, laughs, and juice spills at a holiday meal. Everyone's enjoying a warm evening with cousins decked out in their finest cableknit sweaters, rosy red cheeks, and massive bedhead.
AWESOME!
The smell of Play-Doh
Yes, those sleeping memories from long ago will wake up and bounce and crash around your head as you close your eyes and let that salty-sweetness take you back to Kindergarten.
Fade to black and remember slightly greasy hands with bits in the fingernails, remember mixing all the colors together until they turned purple-brown, remember rolling out lots of cold, lopsided worms, and remember the taste-test incident that resulted in a mouth full of salty chalk.
Yes, that smell of Play Doh takes us way back to the old school. If you're sniffing up what we're putting down, then you're an old fool, who's so cool. If you wanna get back, let us show you the way.
Whoomp, there it is.
Lemme hear you say.
AWESOME!
The moment in the shower when you decide to make it a really long shower
Sometimes you enter a little steam dream in the shower and end up slowing down and thinking to yourself: This is good. This is really good. This should not stop.Yes, in this magic mist of steamy smiles your brain quickly flips into Nothing Else Matters Mode, where all other thoughts just wash away in favor of showering a little longer and living for the day.
Hitting that moment in the shower where you decide to make it a really long shower is a great feeling. As the hot water beats down into your swirly, steamy headtrip, you get to relax and enjoy a few extra minutes of

Sneaking cheaper candy into the movie theatre
Contraband candy tastes better.Here's how to make the magic happen:
Step 1: Bag Up. Ladies, pull out the fattest potato sack you got and sling it across your shoulder with pride. Business folks can pull off the classy briefcase. The only things to avoid are Matrix-style trench coats with burrito dents in all the inside pockets.
Step 2: Food Up. Stuff that puppy with gummy worms and Cinnabons, baby. If you're feeling risky, throw a couple cold and slippery cans of soda in there or a bag of microwave popcorn. Know your limits, though. Steamy meatball subs and hot curry dishes are typically for experts only.
Step 3: Walk Up. Hold your head high, strut a mean strut, and you'll be just fine. If you get caught you can always pretend you're diabetic. "Honestly, this is prescription Everlasting Gobstoppers."
So get in there and get munching. Get in there and get crunching. Get in there and get

The sound of steaks hitting a hot grill
Tsssssssssssssssssssss.Pulling a weed and getting all the roots with it
It's a great feeling when you pull a weed and get all the roots with it.First, you eye it slowly and grab as closely to the base as possible. Next, you gently yank and wiggle it a little bit to lower its defenses and loosen it up. Then, it's time for the big moment where you quickly pull it straight up and outta the dirt.
Seeing a long trail of dirty roots hanging below that weed you just pulled out of the garden? Say it with me now.
AWESOME!
