It is our 17th wedding anniversary today. Sometimes it seems so far away and then other times I can still remember the frustration and disappointment that people kept bringing me water.

Don’t get me wrong, I was appreciative that they even thought to bring me over something because it was a pretty good party and there was a lot of drinking involved, but I really, really hate water.

It makes me gag.

I got to experience something today that I haven’t since I was a teenager. I was out running errands on foot, and I knew that it was going to rain before I even left the house. I wore my sneakers so I could move fast, and I brought an umbrella.

What I didn’t think through was my choice of trousers.

I wore these.
