girl in the puddle

After having about a week of ridiculously warm weather, now it's freezing again... and wet!  Raining is probably my least favorite weather. Snow? Yes, love that.  Rain? not so much.  it's gloomy, dirty, wet, muddy...blah blah blah 

But, come on, didn't we all used to love rain?  the pouring rain that made puddles right by the sidewalk?  the kind that looks like a water fall, overflowing the leaf gutter on your roof? one of my favorite thing to do when i was a kid, and i'm sure yall did too, was to ride my bicycle as fast as i could and crash right into the water puddles by the side walk, throw my legs up and watch the splash chasing me down the street. Wheee... if i happened to get it just right, i can splash the innocent little old ladies walking on the sidewalk.  they'd scream and curse and...oh who cares, i was gone already.

Last time i played in the rain puddles was in 2003. hehe i remembered because that was the only one time in the last 15 years.  my bff jane-jane and i would run out in the rain and hop right into those puddles as hard as we could, and hear the other delicate freshman girls scream... lol...i miss that.
