Innocuous things that make you irrationally happy (a list thread)

When there's a small bit of a song that you can't identify that periodically reappears in your head for years and then suddenly you hear the song.

In my case it was a bit from "Die Wölfe Kommen Zurück" by Coil, a track I probably hadn't listened to in almost 15-20 years.

Not innocuous. Nocuous, in fact!

But I was driving down the road and someone flicked their cigarette butt out the window and it exploded in a shower of sparks on the asphalt. I hate smoking, and I really hate littering, but it was pretty in the twilight! You never see that anymore and it brought back old memories.

I’m definitely glad people smoke so much less these days, and that I quit myself, but god damn if some of the little rituals and aesthetic hallmarks of the Smoking Section Years don’t hit me hard

last week i ordered online gifts from different sellers, for two family members in diff parts of Australia, *hoping* they’d arrive early march but unsure due to covidity & postal service etc

both orders arrived today!

..and one of them never even gave me a shipping notification! i was messaging them yesterday asking to confirm they even ~got~ my order lmao

it just made me stupidly happy to have stuff show up super early for a nicc change

Dude upstairs and a buddy are playing keyboard and guitar and it's so soothing and I'm not feeling well and it's cheering me up immensely
