Cold and wet yet sunny and warm

It's been grey and raining every day lately, but today I had to get out of the house and run some errands and do some shopping.  It wasn't raining when I left the house, but it looked like rain so I thought to myself, "I'll go as far as the rain stops me."  So I made it downtown, and I had brunch at Omar's.  The rain began to really come down at this point, but as a fine mist.  Wet yet fine.  I left Omar's to go to the barber shop, but he wasn't open so I decided to get gasoline then go home.  I put my raincoat at the pump, but half way home the sun came out and everything turned dry.  So I turned back and made it to my barber.  He was open now, so I got my haircut.  I did my shopping, then went home.  After voice training, I made fried noodles for dinner then the rain came down.  And now it's cold and grey again.

Natty you beautiful little sweetheart, how are you feeling?  I'm guessing you're with your family or will be soon, so I wish you lots of fun and please be safe.  There's plenty of time for us, Natty.  Just be yourself, and make decisions as they come along OK?

Pina, you're so cute!  Congratulations on getting your driver's license.  Perhaps you would like an amphibious car, so you can drive right into the canal from Liedse street.  I'm just joking!  I know you don't have a boating license yet.

I should have taken a snapshot of my dinner, because it was really good alhamdulillah.  What I want right now is a big, fat herring.  I hope they serve it raw.
