- the chink of glasses
- spoken prayers
- unspoken prayers
- knife cutting turkey with gravy on white plate
- Manuel and Junior, servers, and their accents (Central American?)
- the whirr of my 2007 VW Rabbit engine
- the hum of acceptance from the insertion and pullout of the plastic hotel room key
- the elevator's churning
- tires on pavement
- heating fan in room
- football on the car radio (Seahawks score TD against 49ers)
- family voices on the phone
- family voices, including my own, in person
- a door closing loudly in a hallway
- ice machine making ice
- ring tones of messages on a cellphone
- keys on a keyboard being tapped, not all of them, mind you, but some of them, selectively
- gratitude
