Simple joys: the little things that make you feel good.

Is there a better simple pleasure for an expat emaw than getting off work and checking out a freshly woken goEMAW full of morning vigor?

I prefer falling asleep early after a big game (win or lose) and then checking the drunken mayhem I missed the next morning... but both are v nice.

basketball meltdowns are especially delightful, especially if zacker is involved.

Flying a kite. I took my girls to the park and got it like 200 feet in the air. I’m going to put it on a fishing reel for next time and see how high I can get it.

Sitting of my back porch watching an AA plane come in to land every 2 minutes. I think AA is moving a bunch of planes to the Tulsa service center. I live 6 miles north and 1/2 mile east of the N/S runway with a west facing back porch, so I have a perfect view and am the prefect distance from the planes on approach.

We have a covered patio. At the edge we have 2 pod swings for my daughters. I’m sitting on an outdoor couch with my feet up watching my daughters in their pod swings banging into each other giggling, the planes coming in behind them & the sun setting behind the planes. It’s actually perfect.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Yeah, great job Hamburglar.  We all need some more rough ridin' gratitude in our lives.  I certainly need more.
