SOAKED

Once again proving that weatherpeople lie, it rained today. They had mentioned rain before, but said that if we get any, it wouldn't be coming until Saturday. Yet I wake up this morning and ta-da, it's raining. So I reluctantly get out of bed, get dressed get my umbrella and walk to school. Some middle aged guy decided walk in front of me as he started walking towards school as I was crossing the street from my apartment (almost slipping on the painted red curb might I add...Those things get slippery). Anyway he was walking too slow for my liking, yet he was walking in the middle of the sidewalk, but would haphazardly move back and forth from the sides..I don't think all was quite right with him. So I felt I should just stay behind him even though it was serious snail pace for me considering my usual walkiing speed. Finally I crossed the middle of the street by the dorms so that I was no longer behind him. He was going to campus, though he didn't have anything with him, so maybe he decided that he needed to take a walk in the rain to take a bus or trolley somewhere. I personally wouldn't of done that. Rain=dark skies=dark room=stay in bed in my book. So I went to my classes. My Ocean teacher said that his toddler was scared of the rain because she had no idea what it was. Cayla and I spent our break in the library hiding out from the wet and cold. After Econ, I ended up with Cayla and Jillian under my umbrella and at the moment when the rain got harder, a huge gust of wind also came up and pulled my umbrella up and inside out. We screamed. Our pants and feet were soaked. It wasn't fun. Afer Math, Jillian and I made the trek to our apartments, getting more wet as we went because the rain was blowing the rain in our directions. Things could of just been topped off if a car had driven by and splashed us, but that didn't happen. As soon as I got in my apartment the wet jeans, shoes and socks came off and the pjs came on. If it wasn't going to cost me money, I would of considered walking down the hall to throw my pjs in the dryer to warm them up before putting them on. As I write this, I am in my pjs, laying on the couch with a pillow and my purple fuzzy blanket. If only I had a kitty with me...
