don’t you just love a good rain soaking? a chance to paint the leaves a deeper shade, moisten the sidewalks (and litter them with critters), for mud to thicken up to ideal spa viscosity. i like to think of rain as a clean slate. so what if last week didn’t pan out? boom! rain comes and you can start again, fresh and renewed! it’s a time to reset, a small disruption in the busy life of a college student (or professor or reader/ fan? of this blog). or at least it is an excuse to curl up in your blankets and sleep…dealer’s choice
