That Kind of Day

Monday, April 6, 2009

Yesterday was a perfect Southern California day. It was the kind of day to stay in bed past 9:00, have coffee on the patio and flip through the Sunday paper.

It was the kind of day to ignore emails and Facebook, Google readers and Twitter.


It was the kind of day for flip flops and tank tops, lawn chairs, a good book and kids playing in the yard.


It was the kind of day for taking new bikes out for ride, enjoying the breeze and faces turned up to the sun.


It was the kind of day to fire up the grill for burgers and corn on the cob.
It was the kind of day that doesn't end when the sun goes down.

It was a meet-the-neighbors-at the-pool-after-dinner kind of day.


The best way to end a day like yesterday would be sipping an ice cold Mike's Hard Lemonade in the jacuzzi, watching the kids do Canonballs into the pool.


That's the kind of day yesterday was. It was the perfect day. It was my day. And it was just the kind of day I needed.

  1. How do people in other places live until late May without this kind of day?
