Rain, rain, stay off my toes...

I have noticed that walking to work, while a dream come true, can be overrated when the clouds fill to bursting and the wind plays tricks with your umbrella-or should I say parachute/rain-catching bowl-type apparatus. That inspired my latest attire purchase--wellies. I looked online and found Target had the best prices by half, and a bevy of color and pattern choices, so I headed out to the store. Apparently, I did so just after hundreds of like-minded Austinites. I found two pairs. Total. Luckily, one was my size, and polka-dots seem fitting.
