Beautiful Day

So it is an absolutely beautiful day in Phoenix right now. I have my front door wide open with the security screen closed and all my windows are open as well. My ceiling fan is doing a great job of circulating the air. It is nice to have the A/C off for a while and have some fresh air blowing through my apartment. My cat is enjoying being able to look out at the outside world and observe my neighbours going about their business as well as the occasional bird fly into the courtyard and walk around in the grass. What am I going to do today? Nothing at all; I am just going to enjoy the day. Days like this make me glad to be alive.
