    Getting my hair played with, or watching someone get their hair played with.
    Same with back or foot massages.

    Bob Ross. Acoustic guitar. Certain people's singing voices or even some speaking voices.

    Rustling of book pages when someone is showing me something. Watching people put make up on. Lots of little things like that.

    I sleep with a fan every night, too, but that's not quite the same effect.

    Massage table. I’m out the second I hit it. I have to take their word for it that they really did the massage.

    The sound of Eddie Vedder's voice. Doesn't matter what he's singing - I find his voice really soothing - which I know sounds insane. LOL

    Totally agree. He's got one of the best voices out there.

    I love him.

    Nice to see some fellow Ed Ved fans. :-)

    I can't sleep without a fan blowing right in my face. It doesn't matter if it's 20 below. I hate travelling sometimes because i don't sleep well. And, it drives women crazy (not in a good way), because, you know how their always cold.

    HAHAHAHAHA, me and my bf clash over this all the time. He's always bloody hot and I'm always cold!

    With everyone on the fan...my whole family does it.

    Rain.

    Cooking.

    Cuddling with my daughter.

    ( I don't think the above 4 are really that "weird")

    Most times if I am really stressed I will sneak off with my daughters coloring books and crayons and just color Ariel or Cookie Monster and the world just feels better. Good times.....

    Watching Bollywood movies will always put me in a good mood. Don't know why I just :heart: a good Hindi romance. ( and all the singing and dancing that happens to come along with it LOL)

    The calmness and quietness of living in the country with neighbours no closer than 500m, oh yeah!
    We go to my in laws farm in Connecticut every summer. I love it! There is one other house, but it's the hubs aunt and uncle and we eat dinner with them on the deck. It's so peaceful and beautiful. I'm an early bird anyway, but there I usually wake up with the sun and birds. I get the coffee going and get a few minutes of quiet time before everyone else starts getting up. Ahhh....

    ALSO the smell of road works or more specifically wet tar, my dad used to do road works and was away alot and it always reminds me of him coming home :)
    I LOVE the smell of hot tar and everyone thinks I'm nuts! I work in construction and was actually severely burned by tar last june....even after that, I still love that smell!

    My relaxations though...I have a cabin in the mountains, being there is relaxing, hearing the rain fall on the tin roof at the cabin, sitting in the meadow behind the cabin - everything about it. Doing math has always relaxed me too!

    The smell of Vick's vapor rub, it reminds me of being little and my Mom taking care of me.
