It's still raining. I am not used to all this rain. Down in Southern California, we shriek with joy and declare that it is raining at a mere drizzle. It does more than drizzle up here, but probably not much more compared to some places. When we were moving up here, we were told by many of my family members that the weather was pretty crazy up here. Shane was encouraged to get rain gear, like slickers and stuff, for when it started raining sideways. My cousin, who also goes to Cal Poly, had been up here a year longer than us and had given this vital information to the above mentioned family members. I have never seen it rain sideways up here and thank the Lord no one went the extra mile and purchased a yellow slicker and boots for Shane for Christmas. I guess what I am trying to say is we are all weather babies. We are used to nice weather and remark at how cold it is when we have to put a sweatshirt on. Not that I am complaining. I love the weather here and wouldn't trade it for anything. I think I am a California girl for life.

Raining sideways, huh? Sure you don’t live in Iceland?
