So, technically spring doesn't officially start until another month... But have you been outside? (I'm specifically talking to people who live near me. I know the rest of the country is up to their eyeballs in snow. Sorry.) The last few days have been SO beautiful... I went to the beach on Monday. Worked on my tan. Read a book and listened to tunes with Carly. Then we went on a beach bike ride and went for happy hour sushi at RA. I mean, seriously, it was like a summer day.
Today I was able to throw open all my windows and let the breeze in. Spring breezes have always been one of my favorite things. It's one of the blessings I get from living by the beach. For some reason having the windows open and just sitting on my bed in my room makes me think of my childhood. I sit there in the quiet and feel the cool breeze... and I just get taken back. It's my own personal time machine. Today the sun was literally shining and the birds were literally singing.
Something else great and spring-like happened today... pitchers and catchers reported to Spring Training! To me, and many hard-core baseball fans, this marks the beginning of the season. The training stadiums have employees working. The clubhouses are open. Balls will be thrown and bats will be broken... starting today. This is a great thing, people. I can't explain how much I'm looking forward to some warm summer nights... listening to the sounds of the game. Seeing the boys play the game they were made to play. Feeling the excitement and electricity of being at the stadium. Watching the sun set under the ballpark lights. It makes me want to cry... tears of joy!
Also, I went for a sunset drive today. Windows down, music blasting. Soaking in the sunshine and breeze. Hey friends and family... will you remind me of this day next time I say I want to move to New York? hahaha...
