Blah

Blah is how I feel today. When I lived in Seattle, where it rains like all the time, I never got depressed by a rainy day. Maybe that's because I didn't have to come to work and sit at a computer pretending to be productive all day then. My office feels different when the clouds are thick outside. For one, it is really cold. The cold is even worse this morning because I left my umbrella in my office last night (even though I knew it was supposed to rain today), so I had to come in from my car without any cover. So I am wet. Well, I'm actually dry now, but I just got that way. For two, the flourescent lighting seems more intrusive, somehow, when the sun is not out. It's like I realize that there is more light inside than outside and that fact disturbs me. It doesn't disturb me at night, though, just when it's cloudy. I don't know why.

This rain is also causing my yard not to get mowed. Becca arranged for a yard service to come and mow our extremely overgrown lawn. Why did she do this? Well, it's kind of giving away part of the story of our hike last weekend, but Gavin basically did a speed run back to the car Sunday so that he could drive around and she didn't have to climb the last 1000 ft pass between us and the car. Anyway, I promise I'll tell the whole story soon. With pictures.

I talked to my sister last night. She had her second ultra-sound not long ago, and they could see the baby's face. That's so cool! I was at Target right before she called, and I went past the baby clothes and couldn't help myself. The little Pooh clothes are so cute. So, I bought some. :) Green, since they still aren't entirely sure of the sex of the baby. Actually, the technician said that she ws 90% sure that it's a girl, but the baby still had its legs crossed. Besides, I don't agree with foisting pink on a baby. Even if it is the "in" color this season.
