Hard...to...breathe...

So the morning started off cool enough. A little on the nippy side I thought to myself, but the day is still young, it should warm up to a nice 68 degrees and everything will be copasetic. Right?

Hell's no!

I went out @ 2:30PM to drop off a package, walk to Quiznos for a sub and engage in a spot o' afternoon culture:

My spot o' culture will have to wait for another time.

I'm usually the other guy; deep in slumber, sawing logs (like all snorers, I've never had the distinguished privilege of hearing the sweet, melodic sounds of my nocturnal singing performances) I've got a my drapes closed @ all times, birdsongs are overrated (it's like they're phoning it on or something; a total lack of originality!), the alarm clock goes off. I placed it across the room on purpose; that way I'll have to get out of bed. I throw a shoe @ it. This morning was different. I rolled over and felt the sun caress my face like a lover I lost ages ago, heard the beautiful chirp chirp chirp-ing of a mother bird and her young, jumped out of bed, stretched and f
