Favorite non-musical sounds

-squeakiness of the lead in mechanical pencils as you write
-gentle lapping of water when you move in the tub
-airplanes taking off from afar
-the chafing sound that stiff jeans make when you rub your legs together
-grandpa hacking a loogie
-that gentle sound when you press the seal of a ziplock bag
-thick Sharpies scrawled across paper
-gravel crumbling under my shoes
-"soundless" sinking of sugar into a cup of foamy latte
-pop that a pickle or spaghetti sauce jar makes when you finally open it
-crunchiness of a pizza crust
