rain.

i woke up this morning to rain. for many people this isn't a big deal, but when you live in orange county, california, it's huge. we haven't had rain since march. that's 7 months ! today was spent in a huge tee shirt and leggings, at the kitchen table working on stuff for my international business class, as my midterm is this week. normally a day spent doing homework isn't fun or particularly enjoyable, but today because of the rain, it was just right. the rain sounded like hundreds of kids licking the ground.

when i ventured outside for dinner, this rush of cold air punched me in the face. walking to the car, i looked down to admire my peter pan shoes,  and saw a red leaf plastered against the pavement.

 i was worried that in moving to california, i would miss the changing of seasons.

but it appears that i'm not missing anything.

tonight, i go to sleep happy.

i hope you are well.
