Playing a great piano right after it has been voiced, regulated, and fine tuned. It puts everything else to shame.

I love change of temperature. Going from hot to cold or cold to hot.

When you are totally exhausted, and you lay down to go to sleep. That minute or so before you fall asleep.

Heavenly! Just shaved legs wrapped around me under clean, fresh sheets. Hey Patty, I knew we had something in common!
While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he's in.

A scream "DADDY" accompanied with an enthusiastic run-into-your-legs hug from my 19 month old when I walk in the door.

1. The feeling you get after a long hot sauna, and then diving into cold water.

Waking up early on a weekend, and realizing there's utterly no need to get out of bed.
Starting a good book on a quiet evening.
Pitching a tent in a new campsite.

Looking into the eyes of someone I love. Getting into the second round of a competition with Laura (always more thrilling than the finals). Someone running their fingers through my hair, over and over... and over... and... zzzzz... Elena http://www.pianofourhands.com

Coming home after work, bra AND shoes off, flopping down on the bed & having my cat come & stretch out beside me purring. Heavenly!

Cuddling with my girlfriend and watching some Fawlty Towers or Monty Python's Flying Circus on a rainy Saturday morning. For some reason, that is the ultimate peaceful situation for me.

One of my other fave things is when you leave an overly-AC'd building in the summer and are already feeling chilly. Sitting down in your car and letting all that dry heat envelop you, the hot car seat relaxing all those muscles you held tense because you were chilly. Aaaaah. I love that! I'm serious. Good thing I live in AZ.

She said it was GREAT. Which also paves way for another noteworthy pleasure: greeting your genitalia as it re-emerges a few hours later.
I was born the year Glenn Gould stop playing concerts. Coincidence?
