Movies, Beer, night swimming, psychology, deep thinking, the first cool day of fall, the first warm day of spring, getting a professional massage, the first taste of peanut butter after I have denied it to myself for awhile, seeing proof that love really exists, a really great bowl of sesame chicken, having epiphanies, the chills you get when a moment in a song or a shot in a film strikes you as amazingly beautiful, smells that trigger old memories, a really good shower that is hot as hell, giving my creative friends ideas to help them with their work and it actually helps, talking geek stuff with buds, those moments when you briefly come out of your regular point of view and see everything as if from above knowing what a tiny meaningless moment this is in the scope of the universe and that you don't find that depressing at all, genuine smiles, when you tell a joke and it just floors the room
Intelligent people who can talk film, literature, art, philosophy, and pop culture (but especially film) who can watch movies with me all day, but will drag my ass out to various outdoorsy or cultural stuff.
