T'was...


... a misty morn in the month of May. Well, no. Actually it was a drizzly October afternoon. But didn’t the first sound better? All the rain-haters would be happier with the first. Personally, I prefer the second. Misty morns have a way of burning off and becoming bright, sunny days whereas drizzly afternoons can easily turn into dreary eves. I like them but you probably already know that.

Yep, I was standing in the street, oblivious to my surroundings, absorbing the droplet-laden air again today. One of these days I’ll probably get run over since I really don’t notice what’s going on around me once I start soaking up the day. Death by drizzle. Hmm, sounds kinda nice, doesn’t it? Much better than squashed by a school bus while stupidly standing in the street even though they’re the same thing.

You know, I really did have a point when I sat down to write this but it has somehow escaped me. Probably out flitting through the rain that’s falling again. Perhaps I’ll go chase it. You can join me if you promise not to get all practical and do something like put on your jacket and bring your umbrella. Rain is for shedding clothes not for adding them. Oh. You don’t know about that yet and no, that’s not what I started out to tell you. I’m sure of it.

I do believe its way past time for me to be going now. Coming?

Yep, it's raining here too. Everyone is running around with heavy coats and umbrellas. I'll tell you one thing though. Rain is NOT to drive in...
