i could never live in seattle.
i’m sure it’s a lovely city, and i still want to visit someday…but i could never deal with the rain. last night i sat here in my apartment just praying that it would stop raining today, after almost a week and a half of overcast skies, torrential downpours, and on-and-off street flooding. i can’t take endless rain. it puts me in a very bad mood; it honestly depresses me. you could probably attribute my happiness during my year in california in large part to the constant great weather. sun = happy sarah, rain = mopey sarah.
someone heard me, at least, because the sun has finally made an appearance and the sky is beginning to clear. and today i feel much better.
even training academy was interesting this morning, as i learned all sorts of things about the shuttle electrical, mechanical, and environmental systems that i never knew before.
we got out of training early yesterday, so i used the opportunity to be home at 4:00 and call nick (who’s 7 hours ahead of me) before he went to bed. he’s already hitting on his dance instructor. 😉 i can’t wait to go visit! the tickets are down to $452. incredible. i’m going to buy.
i want a cat. i just don’t know if i want one for 15 years. and i don’t know if i want to subject my mom and other friends to allergic reactions. {sigh} christina is probably right; if i have to ask, i probably shouldn’t get one.
