it has been raining all day here in nyc. all day. it hasn't stopped once since i went outside and found it this morning on my way to get a cup of coffee. on the way to the gym, it was still raining. and now i look out at 7th avenue, and it's still coming down.
it's not the pretty kind of rain. not the kind that makes you want to kiss in it. not the kind that makes you want to put on your favorite wellies and jump in a puddle. not the kind that makes you excited to open up your cutesy umbrella against all the ho-hum blacks ones of the world. and most certainl not the kind that makes you look as cute as carrie bradshaw walking down perry street. rather, in my experience today, it's the kind that blows sideways. the kind that makes your fluffly, fresh blowdried hair matte against your face. the kind that makes your umbrella invert and blow you down the street with it. the kind that makes you want wish you never stepped outside.
so if you have to face the rain, i suggest these necessities. they have always been very good to me.
up my rainy alley
for the dreamers
now i saiiiiiiiid, "go away."
