Rainy days and Mondays...are alright.

CAUTION: Vent ahead!

What is it about rainy days that either makes people crazy or afraid. People start driving like maniacs. Just because there happens to be water falling from the sky does not give you the right stop in the middle of the road or wait a full minute before beginning to drive when the light turns green.

I forgot a rain jacket today, or maybe I just decided not to bring one. Something about the rain is cleansing to me. Its not that cold outside so the feeling of the rain is nice and refreshing. Walking around campus I keep seeing people running or heads bowed as if they will melt. Who knows? Maybe they will. Wouldn't that be a sight? It has always been and remains to be only water. I plan on enjoying today and following the yellow brick road all the way to Oz.

Despite my best efforts at a sunny mood there is a feeling that comes hand in hand on days like this. These moods call for music with a little soul and whimsy. I realize it isn't Totally Rad Tuesday but Manic Monday is deserving. Ive been listening to Joshua Radin as of late and here is the song that seems to fit my life and day oh so well. I hope you enjoy this little bit of love as much as I do. Go get your favorite blanket and a warm cup 'o joe- your favorite movie is waiting.

  1. I love this post. Its honest and I'm right there with you. There is something about certain rainy days that just make you irritable with all of life's little day-to-day details. Hope your tomorrow will be better!:)

  2. this is one of my favorite songs. i dated a boy for two years and we broke up last may but there are still days when i ache for that relationship. on those days, "one of those days" is on repeat. somehow it seems like it always happens to be raining "on those days," which is weird. joshua radin is AMAZING, if you ever have the chance to see him live, do not pass it up! i'll stop by again sometime.
