rainy day in the 'burbs

So it's raining outside- These instantaneous rainstorms that have been coming through the Syracuse area lately remind me of the south. I miss that place and the people that live there way too damn much.

I've been painting the apartment this afternoon to pass the time. My wife has been of some help of course. We chose not to go to the state fair in the area because it will more than likely suck an awful amount. So this is where we are- listening to some Pat Green and painting drinking some PBR dreaming of being back down south. Some things that remind me of home-

>Shiner Bock
>Heat(100 deg+)
>country music
>chips&salsa
>nice people
>Shiner Bock
>family

alright, so it's pretty obvious that im homesick right now. Lay off me!

welp- enjoy the storm, and ride it out.

I have "rainy" days where I miss the South too. Nothing beats the heat and a cold brew.

pat green AND pbr, sounds like a good little saturday. did you have enough time to make it to bed bath & beyond??

i agree wholeheartedly on the rich memories. and i feel they penetrate us so much deeper when you return to a place you have longed for after being gone for some time. bitter sweet, but i wouldn't have it any other way.
