Absolutely Soaking Wet Today...
Well, I stayed at home today for most of the morning and wrote some emails regarding EMS work. I received an email from the Veterinary Centre's farm manager, he has an opening on the farm starting on the 3rd of August, so I will probably take that into consideration. After the email writing, I went into town and went to the local mall. As I was walking back home, I was caught in this torrential downpour of rain. I was not amused by this at all, as I was wearing my leather jacket and was carrying a newspaper. Needless to say, I ended up using the newspaper as an umbrella and within a matter of seconds I realized that the effort to utilize the newspaper as an umbrella, was sadly failing. I stopped in a random store to wait out the rain. It is actually pretty funny watching what everyone does when it rains. Everyone dives into the nearest store (never purchases anything in that particular store) and then leaves as soon as it is over. At one point, I walked past a portion of the street and this parked Mercedes was surrounded by 4 inch water. I bet that person had fun trying to get in their car without getting wet...Heading off to the Highland Games tomorrow, should be a blast. I will have lots of pictures.
