Ah, I like this thread, too.
For me, the best and most simple things in my life are:

-coffee
-my kittie
-walking barefoot
-going out to the country to get away from the crowds
-dreams
-reading a good book
-being alone
-my kids: the best!

Relaxing with my cats.
Playing my drums.
Sharing soulful conversation.
Sharing pizza with my nephew.

hugs
watching "labyrinth"
listening to U2
getting kisses on the face from my kitty
holding someone's hand
cocoa with marshmallows in it
fireworks
conan obrien
wearing fabulous shoes to class
is it getting better, or do you feel the same? does it make it easier on you now you've got someone to blame? well it's too late tonight to drag the past out into the light. we're one, but we're not the same. we've got to carry eachother.

Walking around at night , in the rain or when its been raining, especially in bare feet :-)

That feeling when its 3am and you're heading for the airport and eating microwaved pancakes for breakfast cause theres no time for anything else.

Getting cold and wet and miserable and then coming home to warmth, dry, soft clothes, a hot bath, a hot drink and maybe even a warm pair of arms.

Coming home on a FREEZING december day and seeing a christmas tree in your house.

Standing in the cold wrapped up in scarves and gloves and watching fireworks

Spending ages putting on lots of makeup and looking really glamorous.

Being at a gig, in the mosh pit, getting hot and sweaty and hugging random strangers and smashing into them and being pulled up off your feet when you fall over and crowdsurfing etc etc.

Being able to just lie around with somebody and not say much, OR have a deep conversation, and playing with thier hair and just being touchy-feely and knowing inside that its real true friendship.

Sitting on the roof with a good friend, menthol cigarettes, coffee and a guitar, and just chilling, and playing and singing along to our hearts content.
