Perfect days

I still feel crazy grateful to live here and to have the opportunities to do the things I do. Today was another perfect day. Last Saturday was pretty freaking perfect too. Now that the weather is getting nicer, I'm getting to do one of my absolute favorite things in the world--play volleyball for hours and hours on end. Last Saturday we played pick up on the beach, and it's that time of year that the beach is still not crowded and the sand isn't hot. Perfect bliss.

Today we had a grass tournament. We ended up playing 4s intermediate because not enough teams signed up for 6s. It was a ridiculous amount of fun. We got into the upper bracket of the playoffs and made it into the second round of that. Afterwards we got some delicious burgers and mac 'n cheese at Kuma's Too.

I feel really lucky to have met so many great people here through volleyball. I used to run by people playing on the beach and wish I had people to play with. Not having something and then having it come to you makes you appreciate it all the more.

Chicago, I seriously couldn't love you more. Now give me a job so I know for sure I can stay around for a while!
