I woke up this morning to find this. I think there will be lots of Skyrim playing today! Personally all this snow makes me want to play Skyrim. What gets you in the mood to play Skyrim?
Fantasy films like The Hobbit make me want to go kill some Orcs, or Undead, or whatever enemy is in the film. Sometimes I'll stumble upon a bit of lore which really makes me want to boot up a character based on it, etc etc. So basically it's whenever I see something that relates to Skyrim, it makes me want to play it.

The storytelling and RP opportunities. I think what draws me to the game is the chance to shape a character and really log my own choices with respect to the values of a character.
I also just like the massive fights and heavy action!

I will also go with what Plunders-The-Mountains said. Most of the times it will be a piece of fantasy art and maybe some music of the "epic fantasy genre" that will motivate me to play skyrim and create a character with a similar feel to what i saw or heard. For example I 'm playing an arcane archer type of build at the moment which I got inspiration to create from a photo I came across and also through mods I gave skyrim a "harsher" dark fantasy type of setting because of some music I was listening to lately :P .
