March 5, 2013

After school I had to swing by the grocery store to pick up a few things real quick. Well that real quick trip turned into a lot longer, mainly because of the rain. It was beautiful all day. As I was leaving class it was showing signs of a sprinkle, more of a misting really. But as I'm driving to the grocery store, the flood gates open. I haven't driven in rain like this for quite some time. It was like buckets of water were being dumped on my windshield. At one point as I was driving through an intersection I was just hoping that I came out in the right lane on the other side because I couldn't see the road at all. Anyways, I get to the store safety and decided to sit in my car and wait just a bit to see if the rain would let up any. It didn't, and I eventually ended up running in using my broken umbrella as a shield, but I got this neat picture while I was waiting.

When I finally got back home, groceries in hand, I had to start studying - two midterms on Thursday.

That Minute Maid fruit punch and those carmel/cream bullseye things (plus a few more I chose not to photograph) kept me awake just long enough to finish all my flashcards before I decided to give up and go to bed.

Poor pitiful Killer pretty much begged for attention. I felt so bad I was ignoring her, but I promised we'd play this weekend. While I placed her duck just for this picture, she did  throw it up on the table and in my lap several times pretty much yelling at me to stop studying neuroscience and play with her. So sad. Hopefully all that studying will pay off.

afternoon rain

There's a tornado just south of Atlanta. I looked outside, and it was bright and sunny. I had already put on my running clothes, and Killer was beyond excited to get in a little morning exercise. So I laced up my shoes and leashed Killer and off we went. Ten minutes later when we were the farthest away from home we were going to get during this run the rain started. Downpour. Thank you tornado. 

 We had a blast. We splashed in puddles and slide down hills. Killer loved jumping in the newly formed river on the edge of the road as it raced down the hill and into the gutter. At one point she put just one front paw in, and it created an awesome arch and splashed right in her face. "Killer don't care." In fact, she loved it and snapped and barked and bit at the water.

Once she had finally had a little too much fun and was cold and soaked to the bone we went inside. 

I wish we could run in the rain everyday!

Day 15: Rain Boots and Art Work

I love when it rains because I get to dress like this:

Brad loves when it rains because he gets to stay inside and do this:

Looks pretty close to the real thing doesn't it?

Love, Brad & Courtney
