Wow...it can really rain in the Midwest. Heh. My family's staying in Chicago over spring break, visiting family and stuff. So far it's been pretty fun, and the weather - for the most part - hasn't been as harsh as I expected. Of course, the last time I was here was in mid-winter and below-freezing temperatures. ^-^ Anyway. It started raining as soon as we left Borders (I bought BLEACH volume 3! And...other stuff. Hehe. I really don't have that much money, and I need to buy more manga paper, but there was a buy-1-get-1-free sale...and I can never pass up things like that. *^-^* I'm a miser. But a happy, deal snatching miser!) and got steadily worse as we walked back to the car. It was kind of strange, since we'd been having weather in the 70s for the past few days, but there was a storm watch on the tv today. Hm...well, anyway, being a Seattlite I'm used to rain...but the nice, semi-gentle and extremely persistent Seattle rain. But Chicago rain is fun! I was throughly soaked by the time I reached the car (holding my mangas to my chest protectively, of course- I have to save my manga from the evil paper-hating rain!! :]), and I could feel the rain and the hail vibrating off the roof when we drove off. _ Actually, I was vaguely worried that the roof would be all dented when we finished. Scary homicidal raindrops…

*shivers*

Yes. Well, that's my lovely weather report from Chicago! x.X Completely boring and rambly, but that's probably from my current state of sleep deprivation. I don't know if it's the time zone difference or what, but lately I haven't been able to sleep until about 12 or 1, and then I have to wake up at about 8 or I don't get breakfast (my whole family's obsessed with the whole take-advantage-of-good-deals view of life. >< We have a hotel soap collection...so this miserliness is probably genetic or something...), and 8 Chicago time is like 6 Seattle time. So it's been terrific. ^-^v Nah, I love Chicago. But I really could do without the whole time-issue thingy.

OH! Speaking of genetics, I finally found the source of my irrational fear of butterflies - my grandma. I guess it skipped a generation...so I'm the lucky grandchild! But you have to admit, there is something really creepy about them...
