Been Thinking Little Thoughts

A list of small pleasures:

  • The smell of a freshly opened pack of cigarettes.
  • When the battery meter on the Zune turns green.
  • Rolled coins.
  • The combination of the color orange and trains, both real and toy. 
  • Graffiti, corrected for spelling and grammar. 
  • The combined smells of smoke fluid, light oil and grease, and the ozone from open frame motors. 
  • The sublime flavor of a beer after a shot of bourbon. 
  • The search through a stack of unsorted vinyl singles, and the discovery of every song you recognize. 
  • When the song or band I was just thinking of comes on the radio. 
  • Getting the laces on a pair of Chucks to exactly the same tightness on both feet. 
  • Discovering that the new album came out, whatever band it's from. 
  • Good coffee and bagels. 
  • The sound of a train hitting a joint in the rails.
