Dear weather deity,
Aug. 21st, 2007 02:23 pmI know we used to pray for rain, but now we'd only like it where the farmers are, thanks. An account of rain woes thus far:
- Kim leaves house to go to work, foolishly taking umbrella rather than raincoat. Shirt gets soaked as the rain comes in diagonally.
- Work! At least it's dry. Unfortunately, rain makes Kim disinclined to go find a shop to go eat at, and Kim gets headachy, stomachachy, and nauseated.
- Kim caves in and gets some food. Yum. Kim finishes typing stuff, swearing to herself that she will go to the gym to burn off some of the stress-and-foul-mood after picking up the wedding dress.
- Wedding dress: not done, come back tomorrow, and besides, you don't want to carry it in the rain, right?
- Walk over to subway to come back home to gym. Step in puddle, soak socks and shoes. Unhappy squelchy ride home.
- Get off subway, thinking "well, at least there's a bus to go home." 5 feet from the bus stop, an SUV drives by, drenching Kim everywhere, blinding her and causing her to step backwards in startlement into a woman who growls at Kim. While woman is talking, bus pulls away from stop without Kim.
