Sheets of Rain

I love the rain. My favorite time to run is in the rain and walking in the rain is very rejuvenating. Last night as I listened to the rain and tried to focus on studying, I suddenly had the urge to get much closer. As much as I wanted to just discard my studying and enjoy the downpour fully, I decided to compromise by taking my laptop onto the porch along with Dan's hammock chair. It was perfect. The rhythm of the rain drops, the sudden thunderclaps, the ISO 7 layer model going through my brain (Please Do Not Throw Sausage Pizza Away!). The rain therapy was wonderful. The other thing I am really loving right now is my new sheets. I have always enjoyed the comfort that freshly laundered sheets can bring but new sheets are even better. And team them up with a new comforter, it is just heaven. It is one of the things that is a memory trigger for me. Snuggling up in new sheets with a new comforter (and rain falling outside my window) is second only to all of the above with my favorite person in whole world spooning beside me. Dare to dream...
