Another rainy day...

Another rainy autumn morning... sitting on my new mattress with the lights turned off and the windows open. Morning Joe is rambling in the background while Cinder's feet twitch as she dreams of chasing a rabbit or squirrel...

I enjoy the sound of the raindrops hitting the leaves. I love the feel of the cool breeze blowing in around me. I love that when I look out my window, all I can see are trees. Their trunks are wet and so dark against their green leaves.

I have running to do today. I know I should do it now, before the meat of the storm moves in. But the bed feels so soft and the breeze feels too nice. It feels so good to just sit here and enjoy it. I'll go. Just... not now.

This is why I love it here. I love feeling summer slowly loosen it's hot grasp as the days tumble into the crisp hands of autumn. Watching the leaves on the edges of the trees slowly turn from green to yellow and orange and red... eventually filling the skyline with an explosion of the most vibrant hues of nature.

Yes, this is why I love it here.
