3. Good conversation
4. Sneezing
5. Good friends that you know you can rely on no matter what
6. Laughing out loud
7. Being right
8. Learning something new
9. Being comfortable with myself
10. When you know someone is thinking about you
11. Surprises
12. Random presents (giving/receiving - im not a taker but i like randomness)
13. Not worrying about money. And then finding $10.00 on the ground.

30. Not being involved in politics/not really caring about them. It's a weight i don't really like on my shoulders. I'll keep up, i'll be informed, but I don't want to get into a heated debate with you on them. The government may run the world, but they don't run my life.

56. A good hug - the kind that means something. Either the "I missed you so much" hug, or the "I want you close to me" hug, or the "I dont want to leave/goodbye" hug or the "It's been forever and a day" hug. Other than that, there's no point. Greeting is courteous, but it's not a "good-hug"
