sunshine

Today I was sitting on the couch watching VH-1 Storytellers featuring John Mayer. He was playing his guitar and I was just chilling out. Then Mak's dog, Maddie, jumped up onto the back of the couch to look out the window. As she did, she moved the vertical blinds. When she did this with her tiny head, the blinds parted enough to allow the brightest ray of sunshine into the living room right on my face. I could feel the warmth of the ray penetrating into my pores, making me smile. It's been a long time since I felt sunshine on my face. I tilted my head back and basked in the sunshine, allowing the blinding rays into my closed eyes. It felt great. I can't wait for summer.
