Summer in January

Wow. For the past few days I have been walking around in what amounts to jeans and a t-shirt and I've been perfectly comfortable temperature wise.

Now, read that last sentence again, keeping in mind that it is January 13th. Seriously, The last time I experienced weather like this in January was back when I was in school at Arizona. Part of me wants some rain so that we won't have a drought, but a bigger part of me is absolutely loving this (relative) heat wave. It made it so much easier to go out and look at houses last weekend. At one point I believe I even uttered the phrase "wow, it's getting a little hot out here."

So here I am looking at houses this past Sunday with my dad and a family of three (the couple has a young son,) and I am in a pretty darn good mood. After looking at a few houses in the morning, it is getting close to lunch and the little guy, Felix, is getting pretty hungry. When asked what he wants, he says Chicken McNuggets, shocking that a 4 year old wants McNuggets, I know. So we stop at McDonalds and sit around the table and just start chatting and eating when I realize that life is pretty good. I mean, seriously, when someone asks me what my job is, from now on I will just say, eating chicken nuggets at McDonald's with a happy 4 year old. Pretty tough right? It turned out to be a long day of looking at houses but it was a good one.

P.S. McDonald's, if you are reading this, you owe me $100 for free McNugget advertising.
