Torrential Rainfall

Rain Rain 2
I’m not one to complain much about the weather in these parts. I understand that I’m in the Caribbean and accept that a random rainstorm may befall me at various points in time. Today, however, I was caught in a downpour to end all downpours. Usually I wouldn’t mind too much, but I had my MacBook with me in a bag that was anything but water resistant. It could have been a serious issue, but I was able to shield my bag with my body. I felt kinda like that old VW commercial where that guy dives in front of the shopping cart, but I digress.

I trudged to one of my schools to hitch a ride with my landlady and the kids immediately put a smile on my face. Since they had no high-end electronics on their persons they were slipping and sliding around like there was no tomorrow.

I bet I’ll get the flu next week as a result.

  1. Hello! Candace, yes. I was there too!!! I know how it feels! Sometimes you must weather the storm!

  2. Since showers must come, perhaps a plastic bag can be placed in your backpack as a anti rainvirus for your macbook. It will take up hardly any space at all.

    The children seem oh so happy!
