I don't know if you did this intentionally, but you listed reading right before rainbows, making me almost scream out the theme song to the Reading Rainbow out loud.

The feeling of solitude when you go hiking.

A good cry over a bittersweet book.

Hugging a friend you haven't seen in forever.

Slipping into the fridge the night after a party and secretly taking some of the leftover icing.

Watching someone go Donald Duck after you've just given a lot of complex odd arguments to turn a debate your way. Laughing

Watching a movie where somebody goes off on a long rant in another language!

Hehehe! Life is just too good!

A good love story

Flashlights

Falling leaves

Having a really good improv session, I mean one that sweeps you off your feet with its awesomeness and you come out of it massaging your chops and knowing that this is the best you've ever played that hunk of metal called a trumpet.

A poem that gives you the creeps because it's so well-written and yet you have no idea what it means

The smell of books

The smell of ink cartridges

The smell of cooking bread
