Cole Porter Lives – Cecil Vortex

With the biggest smile, my headed-toward-four-year-old says:
“Daddy?”
And I say “Yeah?”
And he says:
“Since it’s such a beautiful day, I love you.”
And that line, complete with matching catchy melody, has been stuck in my headbone for nearly 72 hours now.
The perfect Cole Porter lyric, showing up nearly 40 years too late, at least from Cole Porter’s perspective.
RIP Cole Porter.
Tony Randall too.
