Rain rain stay awhile

I've lived around Seattle my whole life and ice heard it all.

"oh this must be a drizzle to you"
"how can you stand a place that rains all the time??"
"is it overcast all the time like twilight"

The last one I don't justify with an answer...but I love the rain. Sure I can get tired of it but this year I'm welcoming it with open arms! The summer was like taking a vacation somewhere lovely and dreamlike where it never rains and no one ever frowns. But just like all you other humans I'm a creature of habit and I'm not built for skimpy summer fashion.

I prefer to be bundled up in layers upon layers of scarves and sweaters. Since the rains came I've taken to wearing to light scarves, a solid and pattern.

Unfortunately I underestimated the quantity of rain I would wake up to and thought of keeping my shoe choice simple and light with a canvas flat. SOAKED. not even half way through my five minute walk to the bus. I don't mind so much as today is pleasantly warm. But it is a reminder that even though I've survived my whole life without then it's time to buckle down and get some rainboots. Sigh, I thought this day would never come.

Another characteristic of Washintonians is we grin and bear it. We are rarely seen with umbrellas, waterproof jackets, or proper footwear. Makes it easy to spot transplants...

Any other weather cliches out there?
Enjoy the weather whatever it may be. It's a gift. The great wing could've chose acid rain all day errday.

nobody loves you when you're 23

Happy Birthday to me!! Wednesday really was my birthday but seeing as trying to get friends together on a weekday for a bar adventure is near impossible tonight is the night!!!
Where? The one and only gay bar in Everett, Bar Myx. Conveniently located mere moments from my Boo's front door! The Crowd is such a mishmash of young/old/gay/straight/drags/goths/hipsters ultamatly who fucking cares?!!! I've met so many amazing people there...not to mention Gian. Anyways I love it and it is so much closer than Seattle which I love but let's face it I'm more inclined to bus to seattle and save myself the troubles of anyone drunk driving.

I missed TILT (Things I Love Tursday) again...time some TILF!!
Pinterest- I mention it so much but seriously! You need a project? You need a cheap fix? you need a recipe?
ALL OF THE ANSWERS ARE RIGHT FUCKING THERE!!

It's also great for finding blogs that have actually interesting content. Honestly, you know there are blogs out there that are just for the pictures...

Celtic Bayou! my sis and her Boyfriend took us there last night for birthday dinner. It's creole and irish fusion...SOME fusion. NOTHING like texmex. Its actually really good! Ruebans,Guinness, and hush puppies YUM!!!

SELF SERVE FROYO!!! We have a Menchies. You might have a Yougurt Extreme or other chain. Last night was Pumpkin Froyo with caramel graham cracker crumbs cheesecake and almonds. The combos are endless and its not bad price either! Definitely an experience worth having.

Today was the first day it rained here! I'm so pumped for fall! i want to wear sweaters and scarves and sip on spicey drinks and bake bake bake!!

whats on the menu today? Pineapple Upside-down Cupcakes for my party at Myx. Thats another thing! i've been to loads of bdays elsewhere and "outside food" is not permitted. I'm not bringing in a cheeseburger just a cake.

But I'm off to toil away in the kitchen while the house is still and calm before I go to work.

Have a beautiful day followers
go jump in some leaves
