I’ve got something for my list! I want to go to BURNING MAN. I kind of wish I’d been going all these years, especially when it was smaller…maybe it’s too late…BURNING MAN festival in Nevada… I would kind of like to have attended a giant CRITICAL MASS event, but now I’m old and not as militant as I was…so I don’t think I’d like that.
I have been trying to list potential pleasures”, and I can’t think of many that aren’t things that are commonplace. You can’t really put the commonplace pleasures on the bucket list, since they’re too common right? Is novelty a requirement for a bucket list? Maybe a bucket list should just consist of things you love, but done a lot more?
1. A good poop: this is definitely no. 1 on the list. Nothing beat a good poop. That’s really the highlight (or highlights, often) of my day. A nice good beautiful clean poop. I am satisfied 100% currently.
2. Toast. I love toast. I like making it. I like jam and butter on it. I never tire of toast. Also, I’m getting enough.
3. Flossing. Man it feels good. I have one gum pocket where stuck collects. Just feels great. Not as good as a poop, but good.
4. Winding my watch. I have a nice watch with a distinctive “onion” crown that feels good on the fingers, I get a little jolt of pleasure when I wind my watch.
5. A long walk. I like to amble. A nice 1-2 hour stroll clears the mind. Want way more. I rarely walk as much as I’d like.
6. Clothing. I have a weakness for very expensive high end clothing. I don’t possess much of it—barely any. But I get pleasure from it, even from contemplating owning it. I would like way more expensive clothing.
7. Napping. Not enough.
8. Buying a new book I really want to read. I have exactly enough of this.
9. Jazz At the Merc, in old town Temecula. More.
10. Really good sushi. Way more.
11. Good coffee. Enough.
12. Playing bocce. More!
13. Playing table tennis. More!
14. Not being sick after being sick. I don’t get sick barely at all but that day after your recover, man it’s awesome. It would be great to always feel great to just be at normal. Hopefully, never…
15. Having a happy wife (or child) rest her/his head on you. More!
