rainy days


Today, the rain is falling in abundance. I am wearing my blue spotted rainboots, which I secretly wish were waders in my head, though technically, they only reach to my calf and hence are only rainboots....How I do wish they were waders though--mostly because wader is a comfortablely exciting word that promises huge massibe puddle jumping expiditions. Rainboot is drab in comparison--- a miserable swamp, to the wide wide ocean.

Rain boot or wader, I enjoy the thrill of stamping in puddles without the discomfort of wet socks--- although, I am not wearing socks with my rain boots ( oh ugly) , but really it the principle that counts--- If I had been wearing socks, they would not possibly get wet unless I was faced with a flood-- and even then, I'm sure I'd find a way to enjoy clomping around in swirling water.
I am grateful for the rain today! I am not grateful to the slow computer, which types at a hesitant speed and then only posts half of what I have written.

I will always perfer rainy days to technology-- and really, anything to do with waders.....
