Monsoon?

So today I experienced the worst rain ever.

I knew it was supposed to thunderstorm but i didn't know I would be walking through a flood in South Philly this morning. The rain hadn't started when I was getting ready to leave so I left my rain boots up stairs n didn't want to walk all the way up 3 flights when I was almost late for the subway. So I left with some sneaks which was bad decision #1.

The rain was coming down so hard I couldn't see anything. I ran to the subway running in and out of puddles the whole way there. I'm a terrified of lightning and thunder as well so I was screaming the whole way. Then, here comes the best part, the dreaded subway bus is coming down the street. The street is flooded, as is the sidewalk. I have no where to go. Bam!! water all over me. At this point I was already drenched so it didn't really matter. I felt like I was in a movie though. It was pretty funny and I'm sure everyone on the bus was laughing at me.

So I get to Temple dripping wet, I sat in class with soggy shoes, and I hate wet jeans!! I'm starting to dry off now at work. Yeah, great day so far! I want to cuddle up in bed with a good book and some hot chocolate. Instead I'm working in Admissions, and have to give a tour later...let's hope the rain hold off! I might just swim home later :)
