Talking in the Rain!

I don't know what it is but there are just times that I love the rain. I love to just stand there and let it pour all over me, soak through my hair, and drench my clothes. Unfortunately as I have gotten older the times I fully enjoy the rain have become few and far between. Most of the time I am busy trying to rush back and forth hurrying to get where I think I need to be and trying to still look presentable as I do so. But last night I just stood there! Of course earlier in the day I had busted out the umbrella and ran for cover when I met Geoff for dinner, but I decided to abandon it in the car as we went to the movie and I was glad I did. After the movie he walked me back to my car and we were just talking and it started sprinkling, but we just kept talking. Then it started pouring and we just kept talking. It was quite funny to see the people running to their cars and giving us strange sideways glances as we stood there, talked, and got soaking wet. It was nice to stand there with someone and not care that I was beginning to look like a drowned rat. Plus there is something kinda romantic about standing in the rain. Really it was a perfect evening and one that I will remember for a long time. :)
