i had a conversation with my husband on the phone earlier about the constant rain we've been having for the past 3 or 4 days. i commented that the weather is strangely reminiscent of when we met in may 2003, when it rained almost every day for what seemed like that entire month. 

when i went to work in the morning it was raining. when i went to lunch it was raining. when i got home in the afternoon it was still raining. when you opened the door to go somewhere after work or on the weekend it was raining. i think it rained so much and so often the water from the sidewalk leaked under the motel door where tim was staying and soaked the carpet. 

i think i'm gonna go back through our photo album to see if i can find some of those rainy day pictures this week. 

i was talking to a friend about starting my next to last previous job and i referred to it as stepping in dog shit and then stepping into a bear trap.
