Today's a dumb day... I scratched my eyeball taking out a contact and thus I feel excused.

It's a rainy/snowy day today. One of those days when it's snowing but it's too warm outside to stick, thus the ground looks rained on, but the sky offers snow. I don't like snow too much. Correction: I don't like snow after New Years. All of snow's value is lost when no longer associated with the holidays. Or at leas, that's my opinion.

I love rain though. I LOVE thunderstorms. But mostly I just love puddles and the fact that sometimes the earth wants to get wet. (Totally random thought, but it reminds me of an elephant throwing water with its trunk to stay cool. That what I imagine mother nature is doing when it rains.) I don't understand why so many people have this cat-like fear of getting wet. Embrace it. It's a change of pace. (Unless you live in England I suppose.)

My absolute favorite is walking outside after the rain has chilled out a bit, and while walking you look down and watch the puddles and the reflections of the sky and tree silhouettes on the ground. Tree silhouettes always make me happy, but seeing them when I'm looking down at what usually is an ugly sidewalk... that just gives me another reason to get over myself and try and enjoy the day. And it doesn't just have to be a tree silhouette. People, buildings, whatever. I just love small puddle reflections.

So I think I will. I've got to go to three more classes today, :p, but between each one I'll try and forget about the disgusting cold air, and focus on something worthy of holding my attention.
