I've been happy tagged

[randysmith]

beah has requested of me ten things that make me happy. Therefore ... :-}

• A long bike ride to somewhere I've never been before.
  
• Swimming in rough ocean surf.
  
• Learning a new way of thinking.
  
• psongster being really happy with her life. This actually applies to anyone I'm close to, but from psongster it's fire-hose strength :-}.
  
• Being quiet and open by myself to the world around me (usually in nature, but it can happen in cities too).
  
• Solving a hard intellectual problem (usually Math, CS, or programming).
  
• Coming up with an random idea someone finds useful. This could be subtitled "My ADD being an asset, not a liability" :-}.
  
• Doing some house improvement, even a very small one; replacing a bad light fixture counts. This is in contrast to house maintenance, which does not make me happy.
  
• Meeting and learning about a neat new person.
  
• Being understood.
  

I don't like the tagging concept, so I'll invite people instead. brynndragon, zebediah, fraterrius, hissilliness, and damselfrog: If you would enjoy doing so, post ten things that make you happy; otherwise, don't :-}.
