Right now decaf coffee is making me pretty frickin happy! I can drink it all day. I love coffee. Coffee makes me happy. I'm trying to cut back on the caffeine. Too much caffeine and I get twitchy.

What makes you happy?

Drinking decaf tea. Black coffee in the mornings...

Definitely playing/writing music on my guitar.

Being able to help others (I get to do this at work quite a bit so that's nice).

Finding a new great graphic novel or comic book to read (nerd alert).

Hanging out with my niece (8) and nephews (5 & 2). They're pretty great, even when they're bickering amongst each other.

I enjoy lying on my son's bed watching movies with him on his HD TV or watching him play video games. As soon he gets another controller we can play Mario Kart together.

I'm feeling generally grouchy about everything but my kitties make me happy. And hot tea. Especially with crackers. And that I found something that I wasn't grouchy about.

Stuff I never do anymore--hiking, ice skating, inline skating, playing hockey. Sounds funny, but I feel especially great when I'm on the ice.

These days I have been really quite happy with the knowledge my adult children are best friends. Not sure what I did right but it thrills me that they are so close and get along.

Nothing. I'm slowly becoming disinterested in my current hobbies. I'm only doing stuff now in order to make time go more quickly.

This thread is making me happy. Thanks for the responses. I love happy things.

My cat is making me happy right now, even if she's constantly mewling. I don't know what's up with that.

My husband and I started playing the video game Diablo. It's pretty awesome. I know I'm a dork. Lol.
