The rain yesterday was awesome.  When I got home I opened both my doors and all of my windows.  It was chilly, but it was nice to get fresh brisk air blowing through the place for a while.  It got rid of the stuffy feeling that's been settling over the place since we've had all that warm weather.  I think I was hoping that it would blow away the sad mood I've been in (it didn't).    

I have to say, regarding the rain, why do local newscasters make such a big deal out of it?  We had a few hours of it and later on in the afternoon, I actually heard one say "How much more of this can we take?".  Seriously?  I know it rained pretty hard during the most of the day, but jeez, come on!  PLUS, the forecast showed that we were going to get some rain and that it would only last the day, maybe part of the next.  It's not 40 days and 40 nights people! 

I started wearing my contacts again this week, not every day, they're bothering me for some reason.  I think the batch I finally settled on wasn't the best choice after all.  I was so tired of trying new lenses that I told my eye doctor that I wanted the same contacts I had last year and to order those, even if he has to use the old prescription.  I don't think they are the same on either count. :-( 

I think I should do laundry either today or tomorrow when I get home.  I didn't get a chance to do it last weekend, not that there was a lot to do.  I just don't want it piling up.  I just know if I do that my apartment will smell like dirty laundry.  Gross.  I guess that means I need to get quarters.  I think I only have about $1 in change right now and the washer / dryer at my apt definitely cost more than that.

Random note - I got a newsletter email from Ticketleap (firm that processed 2011 SDCC passes) and in it they have a sort of "What are people saying" section.  It was hilarious, not one single positive comment.  I guess they're "keeping it real".  My favorite was: "This whole process was full of fail".  Bad grammar for a bad thought.  Still funny though (and true!).

Finally, I'm sad that Steve Jobs died.  It was never a secret that he was really ill, so this wasn't unexpected.  Still sad though.  We've all heard that he could be an asshole, but he was truly an innovator.  He kept in touch with the public (his late night email wars were hilarious) and he gave us things we needed even before we knew we needed them. 

Anyway, I'm rambling (really tired and worn out today for some reason), so I should bail.  Gotta go get those quarters!
