- Guys on motorcycles are anonymously, infinitely sexy in their helmets & gear
- Hearing my kids belly laugh can make my day
- Watching a parent absently, tenderly put a hand on a teen child's shoulder moves me
- Bacon makes everything better
- Buying stuff at Goodwill stimulates the economy
- The new sticker arrangement on my laptop has improved my overall mood
- Saying things in Spanish, with strong accent, is immensely satisfying
- "Hence" and "thus" are pretty excellent words
- Browsing bookstores is close to sex on my Bliss List
- Some people will never open their eyes to the world
- Warm, quiet baths cure many ills
- Freshly sharpened pencils are like brand new days
- Remembering someone's name can be a gift, to both of you

Quiet baths and browsing bookshops are high up on my list of bliss too ;0)
!Hola!
Oh yes indeed...me and a book store. Love the smell, the books, the Starbucks...everything about the place. Me too...me too.
My thirteen is posted. Come visit and view some of my favorite personal photos I took of them....Clydesdales that is. Happy Thursday.
Some great reflections there. I tend to agree with you - except the sexy bikers, of course :-)
My T-13
There's nothing like listening to your kids laughing - it always makes me happy.
Great list...totally agree about everything, especially the pencils.
Bookstores and pencils, yes good good things!!
On the way to our cruise ship vacation to Cozumel last summer my son (11) came out with this -
"How does a Mexican say potato?"
Being the ultimate straight man I replied, "I don't know son, how is that?"
Loudly with a'la your number 7 (with strong accent) he announces
"POH - TAAAAH - TOOOOOO!!!!"
(try it out loud for full effect)
Then we all break into laughter!
Good list and very true - especially #4, lol. And number twelve made my little artist's heart happy - I love a sharp #2 pencil!
I went topical this week - my TT :
Thirteen Ways to get your money back from those bailed out bank burglars!
Happy TT!
I need some stickers for my laptop...it's nekkid!
I love this - and I'm so glad the new sticker arrangement makes you happy - life's too short for bad stickers!
Great list! I'm the same way about bookstores.
Yep. Exactly. All the above.
I'm a big fan of "thus" myself.
Fantastic 13! I love bookstores and would live in one if I could. I like 13, having lived with someone with Alzheimer's I know how devastating it can be on both sides when one doesn't.
Tabbikat's Thoughts
Well said.
And when I agree so completely, my friend's opinions become mine as well.
Hence, it is thus.
I love this list. I have an issue with #1, though. From my vantage point, most motorcycle guys I see have a very long braided ponytail with grey streaked into it, and a big beer belly in the front which forces them to lean WAAAYYY back on the hog. Not exactly an aphrodisiac. And, I agree with you about Goodwill (I just got my fix this afternoon) but I wonder about the books... do you go to the RETAIL booksellers or do you frequent book resale shops too?
I'm with you about the bacon...and lots of other things on your list. Great TT!
your statements made me smile b4 I tuck in. :)
i remember baths. sort of.
it's been a long time since i had a bathtub.
I love the absent, tender gesture in all its forms.
I love this list!
