It's raining its pouring I wish I could be snoring...

So its a rainy and dreary day, everyone gets into a mood, I however highly enjoy the rain. I honestly wish we could have an all out thunder and lightning show performed live by mother nature but alas I am jilted. I took on my regular routine of walking to my moms work for lunch today and wouldn't you know as soon as I step out the door the skies open upon my head. Unlike most people though I relish in the rain, I love to hear the drops hit the top of my hood and bounce up from the sidewalk as I walk up the hill. After a filling and angst filled lunch with random unknowns interupting conversations I head out back to work and back to the tasks I have at hand there. Of course I put my hood back up, not only due to the fact that the sky has a tendency to send an onslaught upon me at any moment but also because my jacket has been drenched in rain and the collection of it has started to seep through the edges so its always good to keep parts seperated so the collection area is smaller at my back. However to my shock the sky has relinquished its dripping state and turned into a cloud filled and still dreary but warm afternoon haze. I'm still keeping my hood up though just for good measure. The hilarious part of this whole situation is how many people you walk by, they are all staring at you as if you're insane cause you're still shielding yourself from this non-existant downpour. A few ladies walked steadily past me and of course gave me the double take then stare down at their umbrellas unsure of whether they should tell me that 'dear its not raining' or whether they should put up their umbrellas in a foreboding feeling that I can predict the future. Not two minutes after I step through the door at work does the sky open up again and come down in huge and fast drops. I certainly hope the ladies took my hood wearing as a sign and put up their umbrellas cause if not they definitely got soaked. hee hee...

On another note, I have started my cardio blast program at the local high school gym and love it already! Out of the 12 people attending there are only two men hee hee they feel quite out of place but I'm sure they're enjoying their situation. After getting thoroughly exhausted with all the tae bo moves and the jogging I am ready to head home and get some cold, cold, cold and I mean cold water in me. Have you ever noticed that no other temperature other then extremely cold straight out of the fridge water can taste so good and quench your thirst so quickly? I have and I relish it. I'm craving some now... dang water coolers that don't let the water cool enough... I have to drink my tepid water here at my desk while I crave for my freezing cold water sitting at home on the top shelf of my fridge.... *sigh* sometimes its great to have a plan and follow through with it. I always say to myself, 'Today! you're going to bring in your water bottle that you have frozen in the freezer and you're going to keep it in the fridge and take it out as you need it.' As of yet it still has not left my freezer. hee hee...
On that note, enjoy rainy days and hope for the thunder and lightning storms that come with them, cause usually always somewhere at the end of a rainstorm theres a rainbow.
