Watching smokers smoke, Scarlett Johannson's mouth, fucking (*gasp*), society events, workin' on my fitness, people who read and think (such a minority), playing football (American soccer), kungfu, swimming, theatre, my sex column, films requiring subtitles, trying new wines, upscale restaurants, and living the dream.
