Morning View...

I rolled around as the phone went off.  I must have taken at least two rings to remember what the strange noise meant, and the another one to remember where I was.  I bound out of bed and threw my legs into my jeans, doing up the belt as I ran through the door and towards the kitchen.  Unsurprisingly, the phone stopped ringing as I went to pick it up.  Awake and alert as I now was, I wandered back into the sitting room and crashed onto the couch, pulling a blanket over me in the process.

I gazed out through the open blinds, past the trees and across the lake, placed there specifically for my veiwing pleasure.  It was a beautiful day, no clouds, sun shining, lake a perfect crystal blue and as calm as any I've ever seen.  I decided that I need water, so I walked back to the kitchen and grabbed a glass.  I felt liberated walking around in just my jeans.  There was no need for a shirt, so I didn't wear one.  It was serene.

I wandered back to my couch and picked up the newspaper, skimming through some sections on property and business.  After a short while, I put down the paper, and decided to put on some music, nothing too loud, just nice and chill, something fitting of the scene.  I did a few push-ups looking out over the lake, for want of anything better to do.  Even something as mundane as that was made enjoyable by the view.

And that was how I spent my saturday morning.
