Pitter-patter

It rained all evening yesterday. I love the sound of rain. It is so soothing, the soft pitter patter of water tap dancing on the roof, trees and concrete down below. It is almost like a symphony made entirely of water droplets drumming different surfaces of the Earth. Kyle told me it was raining in Texas at the same time it was raining here. Somehow, the fact that it was raining both here and there, we both experiencing the same natural phenomenon, made me feel closer to him. Like I should be able to reach out and touch him. But of course I cannot reach out and touch him as we are on different continents.

This is going to be a short post because I have guest posted on a fellow Texans blog. It might be of some interest to those who were interested in reading further about the sexism issue I wrote about a few posts back.

I hope your week is going well. Happy Friday the 13th!!
