Not really. It takes a lot to make me excited. It does however take very little to make me annoyed.

Sure I do. Unfortunately I always misinterpret the excitement as anxiety, which makes it very unpleasant.
I've become less inclined to feel excited about things over the years.

- That's one.

Playing with puddles, I've totally forgotten this, I used to do it too in my childhood, and not exactly scarcely. Sometimes I was just watching the oil marks slowly flowing on different paths on the surface of the water, assuming magnificent colours and shapes.

Cute animals, plushies, drawings or pictures of them are always pleasure to my eyes. In fact, when I see an irregular, non-figurative pattern, like some carpets or wall-carpets have on them, I see figures of cartoonish caricatures instead of random patterns... I rest my sight on them for quite long. I used to think of it as some kind of childish madness that remained in me somehow. Now I'm more tolerant with myself, thanks to discovering AS.

I like dogs, cats, hares, hamsters (I had several when I was a kid too), and a bunch of other animals. Here's little orphaned Vuk, one of my favourite characters from my childhood, his creator is Dargay Attila.

Sometimes natural scenes make me feel so relaxed and happy. When I cycle on certain places I like very much, I feel even excited, like I did last weekend in the Bükk-montains.

Not exactly excited, but a very pleasant and almost loving feeling when I look at the large pile of my audio equipments (R2R tape recorders, amplifiers, turntables, tape decks, tuners etc.), many of them are under the protection of my affection, as if they were an important part of my life...

i am happy to meet another puddle-appreciater!

that's an adorable cartoon character! i tried to view it at work and my computer blocked the site.... *shakes fist at canadian government*.

that is so interesting about finding cartoon figures inside patterns. it's like you have an animated universe lurking just beneath your conscious mind.

Other things:

I am a cashier. I get excited and have to keep myself looking "calm" when a customer's total is anything "even". Like 5 even ($5) 10 even ($20) etc, a palindrome ($25.52), or in order ($2.48...2*4=8). It's weird and I feel embarrassed for being excited.

hahaha i understand! i work with canadian social insurance numbers, and i sometimes say, "that's totally satisfying" to a client if their number is a palindrome or something interesting (like 323 646 111).

YES!

The other day I got excited because we were singing a certain song in church!

I am an excitable person!

Everything and anything can be exciting if you want it to be!

hyperlexian,

I am just like you. Makes me feel like a child. I wouldn't give it up for anything. Life is more enjoyable this way, at least to me.

Simple things = awesome.

Not really. It was beaten out of me a long time ago (thanks a lot, DAD).

It seems like he ruins a lot of things.
