Things that make me smile every single time, in no particular order and without formatting because I'm lazy (and at work):
1. The L'Chaim scene in Fiddler on the Roof
2. Walking in the front door at Jill's house
3. Bethany getting indignant when we argue about something dumb
4. "Hey Julie" by Fountains of Wayne
5. Someone letting me know that my writing touched them
6. The "Spacemonkey" scene in Stargate: SG-1
7. Baby laughter
8. Dew pearled on a spider web
9. Someone saying, "I appreciate you."
10. The smell of chai
Also Christmas, going to the movies, the greeters at Wal-Mart, my little sisters, Andrew improvving something, my mom being herself, and anything to do with Thai food.
I also find it funny that when I find and mark some little editorial thing here at work while I'm proofreading, people will say, "Good catch." Kind of like editing and proofreading is a sport, and I caught the high fly ball that ended the inning, and that will keep us from losing lots and lots of money in reprinting costs.
I have to say that hearing someone say that probably feels just as good to me as any pat on the back would feel to a baseball player.
What's on your list?

work,
