It has rained here all week and we have no end in sight as we head into the weekend. Quite frankly, it’s starting to get on my nerves. For starters, it’s hard to have any kind of a hair style in this humid environment. Second, it’s limiting my choices in footwear. I don’t have any rain galoshes and don’t plan to buy them. All I can think about when I see people wearing them is that their feet must be really hot and the boots are probably stinky. Sure, they look cute, but I know they are not comfortable. But I digress. I hate how I never feel dry in this weather. The house feels muggy, the car feels muggy, the outside is muggy and I feel like I’m coated in a thin film of water. Bleah.
Last night we had a huge storm that kept me awake for the better part of my REM sleep cycle. All the windows in our bedroom, that I normally adore, let in the flashes of lightning and the thunder was shaking the house. I had no idea how much rain we got until I was driving to the gym this morning and several roads were covered with water. According to my mom’s rain gauge we got over 3 inches, but I’m thinking it’s even more. If that wasn’t enough, we’re scheduled for even more rain today. Oh look! It’s raining right now. How delightful.
All I know is that Happy Hour just can’t come soon enough for me.
Which shoes to wear is always my biggest concern with rain. Sounds trivial, but to those in this situation, there is no issue bigger.
Funny – I have the same thought about stinky feet and rain boots!
