Fall!

Let me tell you a bit about today. I work downtown in the Regions building, and every day on my lunch break, I go out to my car and take a nap or do homework in my office. Today was slightly different though. I wanted to go outside instead of being confined to my small car. I walked out to the front of my building on Texas Street and sat down on a bench. I wasn't sweating. I wasn't freezing. I wasn't stressed. I wasn't tired. I just was. There was a slight breeze and the sky looked particularly blue. I looked up, noticing the architecture in the building-- from the angle I was looking from, the building reminded me of Jacob's ladder. But something caught my eye-- it was one lone leaf floating down from several stories up the building. I watched it float and tumble all the way down until it finally rested on the pavement. It was the first "fall" thing I've noticed this season; and I must say, it was appreciated and welcome.
