A Good Day

It's probably not great that I have to label a day as "good" when it was really just an ordinary day. But yesterday was, in fact, a good day.

Remember how we were supposed to be having a visit from the Bombast service tech to fix our in-and-out phone service? Well, I had called in to them - during one of our phone's lucid moments on Friday night - to remind them that if they called us to say they were on their way we probably wouldn't be able to answer. The woman I spoke to was, surprisingly, very helpful and understanding.

Christopher and I got up good and early, yesterday, to be ready for the tech to arrive, and got a phonecall about 8:25 from someone in their service department. It seems that, when looking into our issue, they found that the problem was on their end - not ours - so they had gone ahead and fixed it without the on-site visit. No, we weren't thrilled that we'd gotten the run-around, but at least our phone was back.

Of course, this meant that we were up and moving rather earlier than usual for a Saturday. So Christopher and I ran a bunch of errands and - basically - hung out for the morning and afternoon. We don't really get to do that very often these days, but it was one of the things we did when we first started dating. We'd spend weekend days together running errands, just so we could spend time together. We capped off yesterday's errands with a late lunch at McDonald's (I admit it - I love dining at Mickey-D's), and then came home for a while.

In the evening, we were off to a "Burns Night" gathering at a friend's house. The food was relatively Scottish, and there was some discussion of Scottish things, but mainly it was an evening of spending time with friends and getting caught up. We were there for probably 4 hours, just mingling and chatting and enjoying ourselves. We left at that almost-perfect moment when we were both getting a little tired, but before either of us was tired of being there.

Yeah. Yesterday was a good day.

That sounds like a close to perfect day.
