Still more rain here in Salem. It has rained all day for the past 2 days, and it's not supposed to let up any time soon. 2 out of our 3 main parking lots here on campus are completely flooded- cars were towed today. This is what the main lot looked like today (got this pic from a friend, don't know who the crazy girl is, or who made it)

So yeah. It's a lake. And I'm unhappy. I hate being wet.

Spring bugs me sometimes

I'm happy that it's spring, for sure. We've had some nice weather, there are crocuses in our front yard, and I've already spent a nice day out reading in the sun.

However, springtime makes me uneasy, too.

I hate rain, and it's supposed to rain all week. Rain makes me cranky. I hate having the bottom of my pants wet, and I can't sit through 4 hours of class in my rain boots. It makes me not want to walk to the gym, and all I want to do is curl up on the couch with hot chocolate- and both of these things do not help me toward my weight loss goals.

The rain sucks.

Also, with the rain and nice weather come those lovely friends of mine, the house centipede. I had a house centipede problem last year when I first moved in to my current apartment, and I'd take spiders any day over these suckers.

If you don't understand what all of the fuss is about, watch this and then try to tell me I'm a baby.

These disgusting bugs are fast, they can crawl on walls, and they hang out in the place where you're most vulnerable- the shower.

And they love it when it's warm and wet out. Hopefully I move the hell out of here before they come back.
