Responding to Quills' tag

The task: Name 10 of life's simple pleasures that you like the most and then pick 10 people to do the same (optional). Try to be original and creative and not use the things someone else has already used.

 Oh well, lets see if I can come up with 10. These are in random order.

1. Solving a riddle/puzzle. Ah the satisfaction of cracking one of those.
2. Talking – I could go on and on and on…
3. Traveling -  be it a slow leisure trip, or an unplanned backpack trip, I enjoy seeing new places, new terrains and new people
4. Meeting up family & friends
5. Buying electronics – absolute pleasure to get some of those.
6. Spa – Love the slow, long therapeutic/rejuvenating massages. Yeah 5 & 6 explain where all my money goes
7. Games – word games, board games, strategy games, unreal tournament [I suck at it, but the pleasure stays], ultimate Frisbee, badminton, squash, throwball. And seven tiles for old times sake.
8. Eating & sleeping – Never valued these few years ago. Now you could blackmail me for these
9. Biking – recently restored pleasure
10. Software– design & coding. Sometimes it is extreme pleasure and other times it is extreme pain.

Na, I can't think of anybody who will be happy to be tagged (or am I wrong?). Will leave this empty for now.
