I was tagged on Facebook to list 15 small things that make me happy.


1. In-jokes with friends, the stupider the better as it gives you warm fuzzes about your shared history.

2. Sticking my face in the cat's warm belly on a cold day.

3. Hearing the Tigers' theme song at the end of a victorious game.

4. The sound of the postie dropping off a parcel on the front door.

5. Sliding into a bed with clean sheets on laundry day.

6. Feeling the bed shift as the cats jump on it to settle in for the night.

7. The chest-destroying blow of a secret crush.

8. Opening a new (or even old) book for the first time.

9. Reading "Persuasion" for the eleventh-billionth time.

10. The opening credits to Twin Peaks.

11. Listening to eighties pop through headphones.

12. Any form of stationery.

13. Whenever Wonder Woman beats down someone who gives her lip.

14. The first cup of coffee for the day.

15. Hearing the sound of the TARDIS and that momentary flash of "YES! HE'S FINALLY COME FOR ME!"
