August 8, 201412 yr I love: - Debbie Downer - Real funny stuff. - My Parents - My Partner - My Siblings - My Cat - My Friends -Well maintained litter free parks with fields of green grass, flowers, beautiful trees and nice views. Local examples would be Devou Park, Friendship Park, Eden Park, Ault & Alms (I always get the two mixed up, but love both). -The Big Bang Theory TV Show - currently my favorite and one of my all time favorites. -Classic well maintained vintage architecture. It saddens me when I see a fantastic old property in ruins. -Quaint clean well maintained vintage small towns with an interesting centralized business district that still manages to thrive. -Kentucky High School Basketball (Especially the 9th Region.) - The Sweet 16 at Rupp Arena. - March Madness -Solid timeless songs of any genre (Especially those that tug at the heart or have brilliant meaningful lyrical content). -Roller Coaster Designs (However I think I'm done with riding them,) but still find them to be an amazing work of art that tests the laws of physics. -Well behaved dogs or cats that make you melt just by looking at them. - Beautiful days at the Cincinnati Zoo. - Watching snow fall. - Fresh snowy scene on land and rooftops before it's been trampled on and turned to dirty sloppy slushy gunk. -75-85 degree, low humidity sunny blue sky days. -Interesting documentaries (Especially dealing with science, history or entertainment). -Space exploration. -Well done timeless movies of any era with substance. - Beautiful Autumn days with trees full of color. - A good nights sleep. - Gyros when done right. - Oceans, Rivers, Lakes, Water Falls, Babbling Brooks, Creeks, Streams. - Swimming Pools and fountains. - Snacking out on crunchy salty snacks without care (although those days are over). -Indulging on anything chocolate or chocolate brownies (although those days are over). -An ice cold beverage on a really hot day. - Coffee w/ a touch of cream. - Indulging on ice cream (although those days are over). - Writing Songs and Singing (however as I age I'm sadly losing proper tone and can't quite hit the high notes like I once could). - Walking tours of interesting places alone, or with only one other person to keep it from getting complex or too difficult. - Memorable live concerts in small clubs. - Captivating musicals or plays. - Stand up comics that really connect and make you laugh uncontrollably. - Variety classic or modern dance showcases where each piece is no longer than 10 minutes long. Entire ballets bore me. - Exercising - Energizing and can be uplifting when you're feeling physically or mentally out of sorts. -
August 8, 201412 yr 1. My kids The older I get the more seem to love them, even when you didn't think you could love them anymore than you currently do. Exactly 7 days from now I will be driving home after dropping my youngest off at College and for the first time in my life all 3 of my kids will be living in a different state than me. I will have my oldest daughter who is married living in Ohio, my 2nd daughter living in Florida and my son starting college outside of Cleveland Ohio. The wife and I will be empty nesters and Im not sure I'm looking forward to it.

August 9, 201412 yr My kids and my granddaughter---I more than love them...I ADORE them My dogs--my other children. The sense of accomplishment I have when I do a good job I should probably be ashamed but...proving my IT department wrong...especially when they tell me there's no problem and I detail the issue to the point that all they have to do is fix it...don't even find it. I love words I love books, actual, physical books..the smell, the experience of turning the pages while lost in the tale. A great meal of pasta Red wines, especially Shiraz Driving through Patoka Lake at dawn Dawn anywhere Bruce Springsteen Working from home Arriving at in a new city or destination. Not a fan of the travel if it involves flying, but love getting there.

August 9, 201412 yr I'm with you. Daughter let me borrow her Nook a couple of times and it simply wasn't the same. Same same! I want to turn pages. I want to be able to see how much I read and how much further I have to go.
August 9, 201412 yr I'm with you. Daughter let me borrow her Nook a couple of times and it simply wasn't the same. I know. I tried it once and I'll never do it again. Worst reading experience of my life. Reading an article electronically is fine. I simply can't lose myself in a story virtually turning the pages. Half the joy is gone!
August 9, 201412 yr 16. Funny People. If you make me laugh, I love you! 17. A great bargain. If I got something on sale and with a coupon, I love it even more. 18. Hugs. It's a good thing. Makes even the most awkward encounters less awkward.

Makes even the most awkward encounters less awkward. I love funny people too! I love, too, the absurdities in life. Often, what riles others is hilarious to me.
