It's damn cold today. And rainy. I hate the rain. Especially when it's cold. And windy so that the frakking cold rain gets blown at me even under my umbrella. Alan took the car today, and my driving gloves - which are the only gloves I own other than my ski gear, which lives at Dad's house - are in the glove box (yes, I actually keep gloves in my glove box). Holding an umbrella means I can't stick my hands into my pockets to keep them warm, and it's DAMN COLD TODAY!

I walked into History of English in time to hear two of my classmates talking about the "schönes Wetter" and how the rain was wundervoll and I looked at them like they were crazy. Because they are. This Wetter is schlechtes like a schlechty thing.

Class lets out at 1:15. I usually catch the 1:40 Shuttle and am home by 2 on days I don't have the car. So I go to wait for the Shuttle in the... pavilion thing at the bus stop. It is covered but only has two solid walls, and along each of these walls is a bench. But one of the benches is broken, and the other is occupied - not by people, of course, but by WET UMBRELLAS. WTF why are you two racial descriptor deleted girls taking up sitting space with your wet umbrellas? Set them on the ground or just hold them since they're the little ones that can hang from your wrist.

This was a mild annoyance, until my bus didn't show up. So I'm cold and wet, my feet hurt from standing and waiting, and I'm getting hungry because I'm supposed to be home eating lunch right now and the frakking bus isn't even here yet. Finally I decide to screw it and catch one of the city buses, even though that means I have to transfer which means _more_ standing around in the cold rain waiting for the second bus. 'Cause who knows when the stupid uni shuttle will deign to show up?

I opted _not_ to stand around and wait for my transfer, though, and instead just walked home, since it's like, just under a mile and walking is slightly better than standing (still, though, I am a lazy bastard so this should be read as a big indicator of how pissed off I was). Turns out that was a good idea because by the time I walked into my apartment complex twenty minutes later, my transfer bus hadn't yet passed me.

Pls can we have sunshiny springtime now?

okay, after I finished LOLing at your predicament (meant in an incredibly nice way), I laughed my butt off at your "schlectes Wetter" comment. It's 24 stinking degrees here, we've had snow for the THIRD time and... now I want my money back. I did not move to the South and the coast for snow. I moved here for Marines and beaches and sunshine. Not snow.

I'm hoping better Wetter (rhymes better that way, ya know.) goes your way tomorrow!

It does rhyme better, yes. Better than besser, certainly.
