Stuff that makes me feel great

1) Hiking - Being in a remote area enjoying views and scenery away from people.

2) Booze - A good beer, bottle of wine, cocktail, whateverthefuck

3) Working out

4) Meeting women - There is something so exciting about approaching a complete stranger in a bar or other social setting and making something of it.

Hugging? Seriously? Kissing I could understand, but just hugging?

This honestly made me feel sorry for you.

I like you. You've got your head on straight.

2) Japanese onsen (hot springs). An amazing experience - alternating between too-hot-to-bear natural hot spring water and cold bucket showers. Repeat as many times as necessary. Staying in the hot spring without exiting briefly for too long will probably cause you to pass out, but the trick is to get close but not cross that line. After a few cycles of this, naked Japanese dudes notwithstanding, you will feel like a new man. Again, the same clear-minded, supremely-relaxed sensation will spread through your body and last for a good hour. Perhaps being in a hot tub or sauna accomplishes something similar, but I found the particular alternating between hot and cold to be great in itself.

These are all obvious but I thought I would share.

I went to a spa in Budapest and just hung out in the hot pool, kept at precise 38 C - which is the human body temperature. Basically floating in that water was more or less equivalent to returning to the womb. I had big plans for that night but cancelled them because I was feeling like a big content, wet noodle.

Best sleep ever. Try it at home.

You haven't gotten VIP status at CEGO, I'm guessing

biking up difficult trails and mountains always gives me a rush

also, coming home and my 2 year old would smile and give me a "hi, daddy" or when my 7 year old would on her free time make me a greeting card.

> Waking up with a woman sleeping with her head on your chest, pulling her closer and then falling asleep again. Especially when we both are nude.
> Listening to great music.
> Those few instances where I feel clarity and aren't worried about moneys in the bank, who I'm going to sleep with that night and just can feel pure happiness. Doesn't happen often but when it does I feel like the happiest man on earth.
> Really hot and sweaty sex.
> The feeling after a hard work-out.

afternoon naps
warm evenings
hard weightlifting session
brand new clothes
catching a wave

Songs that make the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

Still being able to land something decent on my skateboard.

A really good thrift store find.

When I can do something unexpected for my fiancà e and she really appreciates my help.

Cleaning the apartment from top to bottom. This must be done with music blaring and an open beer on the counter.

The feeling I get directly after mowing the lawn or doing yard work.

Going to a hardcore show and knowing all the words to a song, or having an unexpected cover played.

Those are pretty awesome. I've been upping the fiber in my diet like crazy and I get those like 75% of the time now.

I like the Korean Heat therapy spas (King Sauna etc). Take a nice long relaxing shower to clean off all the grime, hop into their t shirt and shorts and then sweat it out in the hot rooms. There's also an ice room now which is awesome. Then spend time in the hot tubs and steam rooms, scrub off all my dead skin, brush my teeth, shave, grab some Korean food from the restaurant, fall asleep watching golf or reading a book in their incredibly comfy chairs. So relaxing. With coupons and stuff the entrance is only like $20. Extra for food and massages.

Feeling tired and lazy but somehow getting ****** to the gym. Come back feeling awesome.

Going for a nice long bike ride.

Cooking something to perfection and then eating it, a lot of it.

Ecstasy.

I've really gone off drinking in the last year or so. I mean, OK, I was ******* plastered last Thursday night, like, decimated...and that was only narrowly better than the Saturday night before it, but other than those two benders, I haven't had a lot of 'lots and lots' nights in quite a while.
