For me it's watching my two dogs play, one has little paws that look like mitts, when she lays on her back she moves them like she is boxing.

farting noises

Lately, it's definitely the salted caramel ice cream from the red apron in Ottawa. So good! :)

But also, waking up in a pool of sunshine, reading a really good book with a glass of red wine, cooking while dancing around my kitchen, and having a really good conversation, where I finish and feel like I've learned something new about myself.

An unexpected pm from a lady, resulting in making a new CERB friend

My cat, enjoying his spoonful or two (ok on a real hot day three) of ice cream

Pre encounter emails...two weeks meeting a new lady and the building anticipation through email, it's all part of why this lifestyle makes me happy and puts a smile on my face

Memories of previous encounters. Long after the encounter is over, the memory of my time with the lady is still there, and makes me happy

Getting a pm from a lady just noting and appreciating support that you have given

Getting a email from a lady for an upcoming encounter. She thought because of something that came up from her end, well let's just say she was very apologetic. In reality it was very minor and quickly resolved. Just kinda cute that she thought something in reality so minor was so major.(this makes much more sense if you read the email)

When someone pm's me about a lady (happened on a few occasions with a few ladies) and I can wholeheartedly recommend her. Not only does it make me happy that maybe my comments and recommendation might give the lady another client (good for her business) I'm happy that my recommendation can lead a gentleman to a good or great lady, and leads to a good encounter for him

Just a few

Still being asked for I.D. when ordering drinks. This is incredibly good for the ego.

Trying new things, the people I love, tasting great food, summer, joking around, doing the things I love ie: going to the gym, being outdoors, reading, playing online games and meeting new people. I feel very lucky and happy that I get to enjoy these things on a regular basis.

This could be my new favourite thread!

 

Snuggling with a CERB friend, sometimes without words, in awe of the incredible beauty - both inside and out - of the lady friend I'm with.

... this makes me smile

 

------

 

from today's moment in time (Globe and Mail)

August 17, 1957

Sometimes the trivial turns transcendent, in a moment so improbable that it endures as a metaphor for the vagaries of life. Take what happened 55 years ago at Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia. The perp was the Phillie's Richie Ashburn, a future Hall of Famer who slashed a foul into the stands that hit a fan, one Alice Roth, smack in the face, bloodying and busting her nose. Play was halted as medics worked on her (and her eight-year-old grandson, trying to fetch the offending ball, was told by the man who'd nabbed it, "Go to hell, kid"), then resumed as she was laid on a stretcher. On the next pitch, Ashburn slammed another foul - cracking roth on the knee as she was carried out. What are the odds? Ashburn visited Roth in hospital and they became friends, forever connected by the cruel whims of the baseball gods.

... on the other hand, one thing that does not make me smile is the news out of Russian this morning that Pussy Riot has be found guilty and the state prosecutors are asking for a 3-year sentence ... it is hard in imagine the old Soviet Union being any worse
