Nothing makes me feel more alive...

than wind. Honestly. The unpredictability. Windy days are so thrilling for me.

Around 2 am this morning when my friends Andrew, Meg and I were leaving Meg's birthday celebrations, we had to trudge to my car through the wind and rain. Luckily, the rain let up some but the wind was in full force!!! As I'm typing this I'm listening to the wind blow hard against my windows. The three of us were crossing the street and mine and Meg's skirts kept blowing up along with our hair (lucky Andrew) haha. Andrew stops in amazement and says, "Look how fast the clouds are moving!" So the three of us stood in awe up at the sky. The sky was black and there were low gray clouds moving by so fast, it looked like God was pressing fast forward on the sky. I've NEVER EVER seen clouds moving so fast! I was almost dizzy after staring at the sky for 10 seconds.

I am also a HUGE fan of girls in dresses on windy days. ;) I totally understand that cliche picture of Marilyn Monroe. The thrill of something we can't even see, we can just feel, spontaneously moving everything simultanesouly. It's amazing. Plus I love that rush of having to pull down my skirt or dress. I feel so awkward and everyone who is watching "gets it" at that moment. It's universally hilarious and embarassing..

God, bring on those windyyyyyyyyy days please!!! :)
