rainy days are on their way

spring-feeling days are now mingling among the snowy ones, which means that soon we're going to be in rainy season. i have mixed feelings about rain: it's good for the earth & all of the spring seedlings which will grow yummy vegetables, but it's also grey and depressing unless you can stay home in your pj's. what i hate most is when i'm walking outside...it doesn't matter which shoes or boots i wear, inevitably the bottom hem of my pants gets wet, which is annoying. my latest trick to avoid this is to either cuff my jeans, or roll them up. this solves the wet-hem problem, and luckily, it suits my style. of course, i'm priveliged enough to be able to wear jeans to work any day of the week!
