Well, it's finally happened. I looked outside the house before my walk and noticed that the ground was wet but no rain in the air. I had left both my umbrella and my walkman in the car... I didn't want to go slamming car doors at 7am so left both behind. Therein lay my mistake. I had forgotten to look to the north from whence cometh storm clouds. When I got to the farthest (furthest?) point on my walk the Obama rain started. Gentle and restorative. But barely above a mist. So I kept going. Then it started sporadically raining harder. The last block was a real rain but still very light. I got wet enough to change my turtleneck but my skin was dry. I'm glad it wasn't 15 degrees below outside.
Falling rain constantly reminds me that we're all on this flight together.
