Three Things: Rainy Day Edition

Spring storms are upon us (finally), and with them rainy day reveries. I’m sure I’m not the only one who curls up with a notebook and a cup of tea next to the window on a rainy day. For whatever reason, rain tends to muffle the usual daily distractions, and makes quiet contemplation that much easier. Care to join me? Next rainy day (which may prove to be just around the corner), grab a seat, a pen and paper, and have a good long stare out that rainy window.
