It's Raining. It's Pouring.



I LOVE rain. Weird to some I know. I blame it on my homeland...Portland Oregon. I love the smell, the look the clouds make in the sky, the puddles it makes EVERYWHERE, the sound it makes against the window and roof...ahhh I just love it all. But usually I am prepared for the rain. I almost always have an umbrella or some kind of jacket "just in case" something were to happen.

Today...I missed the memo of rain showers. My secret of loving rain got out and mother nature decided to POUR...and by pour I mean hurricane Brigham struck Provo this entire day. And I literally mean HURRICANE!

This morning I saw blue sky patches and thought it might be hot so I'll wear a skirt and maybe even ride my bike to school to have a tender little time. But at about noon, the rain began and the wind and the thunder. It was crazy! All I could do was laugh. Especially since I honestlynhave never resembled a drown rat more in my life. I was soaked. My hair, my skirt (it even had mud stains all over it), my shoes...basically I looked like I jumped in a river and rolled in mud.

I may or may not have resembled this poor human at one point too...



Basically it was an eventful rain storm to say the least...but I secretly loved the entire experience. Come what may and love it right?! So prepared or not...I still love the rain but from now on, I'm making sure I always have my umbrella or a poncho handy.
