I was in a rut. I blamed it on the fact that I needed to be saving money, but I was really wasting my summer days. I spent the last few weeks watching all three seasons of White Collar. While Matt Bomer is cute, the show isn't particularly gripping... but there I was, mindlessly letting the calendar pages fly.
Then today, suddenly, I somehow found this great music mix http://gigawattdesign.com/tunes/1.1.html
Suddenly I appreciated the sunny weather, the clean white walls of my apartment, the antique crystal chandelier, the beauty of having a day off alone at home.
I felt no inclination to fill up my social calendar. Instead, I did exactly what I wanted to do. I ate a grilled cheese sandwich. I had a PB&J as my dessert for that meal. I defrosted a few slabs of thickly sliced bacon so that I could make bacon carbonara later tonight.
I read a book by my old philosophy professor, Mark Kingwell, and now I'm off to flip through some risk management articles. I finally WANT to read them.
I love days like today. So beautiful and relaxed.
