Let it rain

My tattoo has healed nicely, so I'm going to the pool tomorrow. It'll be nice to swim again, I've missed it. Knowing it was my last walk of the week made it easy to set out for my walk even though it was raining like crazy. No need to worry if my gear will dry out overnight. I love rainy, dark dashcam videos, and this one is cool because I got frustrated waiting to turn left out of the neighborhood and took the long way around the park, so there's lots of light from the main drag.





I couldn't take too many pictures because of the rain, but I got a couple I really liked. I love when you can barely see where the water ends and the sky begins.

I was amazed this heron didn't take off. They generally won't hang around when I walk by. In fact, one I hadn't noticed was nearby got mad when I approached the water by the hotel to get a video of a seagull swimming around. He took off, yelling, and scared the seagull away too. But this one stayed put for a while.

I'm here alone tonight because Garrett's down at the airport for a mileage run tomorrow. For a brief moment, I thought about making some plans, and very nearly got an Airbnb in Seattle so I could see a show tonight. But I'm still reeling financially from the new mattress and other stuff, all of which happened right after I decided I'd set aside quite a bit of money each month for tattoos. Thinking about money made it easy to stay in, and I'm enjoying movies on our new HBO Go account.

The other thing that made it easy was that I'd have had to stay up really late to see that show. I like my sleep.
