Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head...
Aug. 10th, 2004 05:49 pmWe've been having cool, grey, rainy days lately. The high for today was supposed to be 14 degrees Celsius. That's about normal... If it were early spring. I don't mind this weather though. What really bothers me is that when it rains the water leaks into my room via my new window. This happened once and we got people over to fix the window. However it still leaked and when someone came in again it was decided that it was not my window's fault but the roof's. So now we need a new roof. Of course this is not something that happens instantaneously so I am stuck with having water drip into my room when it rains. I had to move all the stuff that was under my window including my CD player which was somewhat damaged by the water dripping in. Once it dried it seemed to be alright though.
My dad was away for a few times this summer. He brought me back a really nice black rayon shirt from Banana Republic in Calgary, two (also) really nice silk shirts from Banana Republic from the Mall of America (one greyish-blue the other pale green), and some Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans from Halifax. Word of advice to anyone who tries these: Avoid the white ones, aka Sardine. Ick. I managed to pass on a few to some unsuspecting friends which was good for a laugh.
Mom is making chocolate chip cookies right now and since I can smell them from the other end of the house I am assuming that means they are ready for me to eat... : )
