Soaked to the bone….

Ok-so I woke up this morning to a lovely thunderstorm. This has happened a few times the past couple of weeks, at least this time it was almost time for me to actually get out of bed. I waited a few to see if the lightening was going to stop, when it didn’t I braved the shower anyway-I just simply can not wake up without a quality shower. The storm continued throughout my morning routine. I managed to get myself out to the car dry since the rain had stopped and had a fairly peaceful, yet slow drive into work. The rain had picked back up again, but it did not create too much of a problem. Just as I am arriving to campus another storm decides to go through, thunder, lightening, downpour. I get my car parked and think-ah it’s only a quick walk to my office, it will be fine, I do have my trusty umbrella. Well-the umbrella was practically a waste, at almost the exact time I start my brief walk the skies open up and even more rain pours down. So there I was sitting, shirt off (replaced by jacket left in office), socks off, toes cold, paper towels in shoes, pants soaked, hair damp, and wishing I could just crawl back in bed and start the morning over. I was sure it was a Monday and not Wednesday!

At lunch, I called a friend who lives close by and happened to be home today. She is a lovely person who allowed me to go over and dry my cloths. Thank goodness for friends and modern technology!
