When I was a kid I used to request "I love the rainy nights" at the roller skating rink. I don't know why...because I never had that record and never even knew who sang it.
I think I'm sick of the rainy nights. It's rained since Saturday. Each night is filled with crazy thunderstorms that keep me half awake and scatter tree branches all over the streets.
This afternoon the heavens just opened with fury. I could see them from the window at work - a lady with a double stroller running up the curving ramp toward shelter at the Art Institute, some folks just caught completely off-guard and booking it down the block.
When quitting time came around tonight the rain was so horrible that I was afraid to leave. I waited about an hour an a half until I couldn't bear to hang out at my desk anymore and then headed home. It took me about an hour to go something like 7 miles but that's ok - I made it home safe and sound. The boyfriend and the cats sure were happy to see me.
