Ro tagged me this morning to list 5 simple pleasures that I particularly enjoy. Let's see what I come up with:
1. opening the window shades on a sunny morning
2. eating lunch away from the office, alone with a book
3. buying something "assembly required" and putting it together
4. during a day off, reminding myself how much of the workday would be left if I was at the office
5. the first time a passing acquaintance addresses me by name (relatedly: mentally upgrading someone from "acquaintance" to "friend")
