Laughing at a certain friend when he tries to tell me something in Pokemon sucks (like Scizor supposedly does because Escavalier is apparently soooooooo much better) or doesn't work/exist (like the RNG), or the fact that he believes Regigigas is the greatest Pokemon ever.
Finding a shiny Pokemon.
Holding in a major shit because I'm in class/can't go to the bathroom, then letting it loose in a public restroom.
Correctly predicting the next song on shuffle.
Getting extremely wasted, playing Super Smash Bros, and still beating my sober friends.

Yesterday, I found this bird on my driveway, incapable of flying:

I identified it as a Black-faced Monarch, put it in a box with a towel at the bottom and called the wildlife rescue people. They didn't come get him, so I fed him a couple of dead bugs, called again after work today and they directed me to a local after-hours veterinary hospital. I took him there this afternoon and gave him over.
 
Being tired, weary and then my girlfriend's arms taking away all of the soreness in an instant.
The feel of her skin against mine
Making a perfect sandwich. Eating it really quickly, not being satisfied - repeat -
When you're drunk and the only thing you can do is be fucking hilarious and witty
 
finding money that you had no idea you even had

when an artist who's work you enjoy updates their thread in SS
especially if they haven't updated in a while

staying up for a couple of days than just fainting from exhaustion
 
A cup of coffee/tea in the morning or at night, the weather when you first have to start dressing warmly, the sky on a clear night, that last class on a Friday, doing something that exhausts you for the rest of the day, flowers, and going to the grocery store on sample day.
