Rain Rain Go Away...

Living in California I have never had to deal with "bad weather". In fact when I mention that I dislike California and want to live back east somewhere people always say California girls can't deal with Chicago winters or humid New York summers. Still I've always maintained that I'd trade the nice weather for sports.

But the weather in California, at least here at UCSD, hasn't been so nice this spring. And I've been missing football more than ever this offseason.

Now this is odd, as I always miss football, but baseball is the love of my life, so it gets overshadowed. So for the past few weeks I've thought that maybe I missed football and wasn't as excited about baseball as I normally am because of the social aspect of the games. I figured I just missed by football buddies from back home.

Or maybe, get ready for the stereotype, I was just being a typical girl changing her mind and being dissatisfied with what I had wanted all along.

But when I woke up to go to class this morning and looked out my window with a view of the Pacific Ocean I saw gloom. And the only thing I could think was "I really miss football." And then on my way back from class the gloom turned to rain, and I missed watching Peyton and Eli in action even more.

Now it probably doesn't help that the majority of my Angels' gear is short sleeved for summer and whereas my Colts' stuff is full of jackets and beanies to keep me warm during the winter. So instead of wearing baseball attire I've been decked out in horseshoes still, even though the Super Bowl is three months removed.

I just wish it would get sunny so it would feel like baseball season here in California, instead of an extended football season.
