rainy days

I was raised by my mother to be an optimist. She'd never allow us to say we were "sick", she'd say "sick is for sick people" and that we just had a cold or weren't feeling well. She also raised me to appreciate rainy days, and this past Saturday did not disappoint.

And no one can convince me otherwise. I grew up in Vegas where it rained so rarely, that rainy days are THRILLING to me, and people always say, "trust me, you'll get bored of it" but I disagree.
