Coffee and Ink: Rain, Rain

In my family, it’s a little joke that whenever I come to visit, I always bring the rain. Well it’s rained here, for the past two days, on and off.

Roads are flooding. It’s cooler out. People move more slowly. Hurricane-y worries.

And it’s all cause of me :)

It’s an inside joke between my father and I that I’m a Star Child and that’s why it rains.

It’s a good thing I like the rain though!

But today, I didn’t so much.

I’ve been dreading some things about coming to Texas and I’ve got good reasons. And I encountered one of those reasons today. Now I wont go into detail, this isn’t the blog for that. But I’ll let slip this:

I was told some things today that are enough to make me, or anyone, really, to regret deciding to be themselves and trying to be happy.

And that was all over breakfast.

Ugh.

On a normal rainy day, I can be found splashing in a puddle or running around in the rain, not worried about ruining my clothes (which can get me in trouble…).

But today, I just wanted to sit in a café, staring out the window in a sweater with a coffee mug between my hands, discussing my problems with a friend.

Oh, if only my life were a fricken soapy opera :P

Speaking of which!!

I watched a soap opera yesterday in Spanish. I don’t know what they were saying, but I made up the dialogue in my mind and it was a great episode, in my opinion :)

Let’s see….

Well, it’s hot here. In rains. I eat too much. I write a good portion of the day (we sit in my grandparent’s restaurant most of the morning and early afternoon so I’m either eating, writing, or talking with my great aunts). Bought some clothes.

Airports were fun. Walked around in my boots so EVERYONE heard me :P got through security without any trouble (related to my piercings).

'My heart is real' Love it. I'll draw it somewhere on me

I'll never look at a coat hanger the same way :)

Well…enough for today?

I’ll try to post more tomorrow! I’ve got lots to post. When I get back from Texas, I’ll get back into the daily posting :)

And, I watched The Human Centipede. It was actually slightly comical! But the two chicks got the shitty end (no pun intended) and in the end, the chick in the middle was screwed.
