LOOK OUTSIDE!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so it’s still raining…but the SUN IS OUT! THE SUN IS OUT!

I don’t mind a sun shower…just as long as THE SUN IS OUT!

Yaaay! YaaaaYYYY! YAY! After over a week straight of rain, THE SUN IS BACK! I had forgotten what it was like to look outside and see the sun!

Oh man, I’m plotzing. :-D

All the girls walk by dressed up for each other

From Overheard in the Office:

Subordinate #1, middle-aged: So, how’s your broken toe doing, [Sara]?

VP [Sara]: It still hurts, but after four tries, I finally found a pair of high heels I can stand in.

Subordinate #1: Should you be doing that yet?

VP: I have a date tonight and need to look cute.

Subordinate 2, older: You shouldn’t be wearing heels yet. You’re going to ruin your feet so that when you’re old like me you’ll be able to wear only ugly shoes.

VP: I’ll be married by then, so it won’t matter!

Yeah, because I’m sure men care so much about girls wearing fancy shoes. I only wear clogs, flip-flips, and snow boots and that didn’t hinder my ability to find a nice boy to settle down with. I’ve never met a straight man who was impressed by a woman’s footwear, aside from the times I’ve gotten compliments on a pair of sneakers.

Reminds me of what my dad once said. He never understood why women would get their nails done before a date. He said he never ever heard a man say or thought to himself, “Did you check out the fingernails on that chick? What a beautiful shade of red.”

I wonder if Matt would like me better if I spent lots of money on cute strappy heels. Ha! He wouldn’t even notice it! I could probably get my other nostril pierced, shave one of my eyebrows, get my hair chemically straightened, and grow three inches and he wouldn’t even notice!

The sun’ll come out tomorrow!

What’s that I see? A glowing orange-yellow ball? Why, I think it’s the sun! Well, I’ll be! After 8 straight days of rain, I feared that the sun was never to return. But it’s coming back! It’s coming back tomorrow!

Here comes the sun, do do do do….
