a side order of felicity
There are innumerable types of days, each and every quality, nature, and nuance allows itself free reign within the continuous 24-hour spectrums alloted to us. While far from perfect, far from consummate, today has been blissful.
What better way to begin a Friday, and a weekend full of expectations, than with a performance by the heavens? On my drive to work early this morning, I witnessed a falling star, more correctly a meteorite careening towards self-destruction somewhere within 30-50 miles of here (it appeared as so, at least). I was instantly awestruck. Certainly, with no one else testifying to its sudden descent, I was affirmed that this star was for me. And me only 
My star!
Work was blah in the morning. However, there must be the polar opposites of baseness and vulgarity to accent the subtle tones of felicity.
At approximately 10:25 AM EST, the skies became as lush as the grounds that I tend to. The temperature dropped, a breeze began fleeing from the west (although, its mind was never quite made up as to where exactly it needed to go from there), and the sun, clouds, and remnant of moon harmonized softly. All became jovial at that instant. Suddenly, floods of people appeared on the sidewalks riding bikes, pushing their tri-wheeled baby carriages, or speedwalking. The day became one great adrenaline rush. After that point, work was not bad at all. Time does indeed fly when it sees you’re enjoying yourself too much.
Post-work: Starbucks for some Les Mis (I am close to completion; a full critical analysis when I am through). The weather continued to perfect itself even then.
Not long after I got home, my sister and brother-in-law showed up for the weekend and we chatted and such. Then dinner. And I escaped for an hour to sip at Drowsy/Givens.
Perfect days are overrated. What I want is peace. The first Friday of August, in the year 2004, solved my summer-long search for a worthy inner bliss.
Plus I was able to fix the Amazon order problem thanks to package-fowarding provided by Tech.
Plus Tech has taken back its charge for Wi-Fi next year.

Today has been exemplary.
