you're tellin me?!

I never really "lay out" on account of my perma-tan, however yesterday, I decided to join my friends in a study session by the lake. About an hour and a half into the session, dark clouds started to come toward us. So we packed up our stuff and headed in doors. Que the 60 mile/hr winds...we had to seek shelter in a hotel about 2 blocks from my friend's place...I felt like Dorothy only my ruby red shoes were green flip flops.

We had to run through the rain...liberating and fun.
