saturated

It rained yesterday, harder than I've seen in a long time. The sky never getting lighter than twilight, and the rain coming down in sheets. Everything is saturated today. The ground is wet, the plants are wet, even the air is incredibly heavy with moisture. My umbrella, left outside but in a covered area, didn't dry even a smidge; and at 10:30 my hair is still damp from my shower. It's warmer today which is nice, but the permeation makes it a little harder to enjoy. Nonetheless, I'm glad it's not raining anymore.

This week has been a bit ridiculous. Tuesday I was in DC with train delays and consequently late nights. Yesterday, I was able to have a late start, but consequently had a manic day once I arrived. I also had the frustration that goes with knowing you did something a bit daft. C'est la vie. All is well that ends well.

Tomorrow I have off, an appointment in the morning, but otherwise a day of rest. And I mean rest. I will be making my biggest cup of tea, grabbing some snacks, a book, and a stack of magazines and lounging in bed. To say I'm looking forward to it might just be the understatement of the century.

But for now, I have to finish trying to shove a weeks worth of work into my 3-office days week. Wish me luck and have a great weekend!!
