I grab my coat as I sprint out the door into the rain, my titties flopping because I thought it was nice out enough to not wear a bra.
*Insert '90s record scratch here*
You're probably wondering how I got here.
I woke up to the smell of fresh coffee brewing. The start of a beautiful new spring day. As I pop some toast into the toaster, I refresh my Instagram feed rather than responsibly check the weather app. I slip on a pair of jeans, throw my hair in a ponytail, opt out of the whole bra thing, and slide into my new flats. Suddenly, my day goes backward.
I'm terribly late for the bus, and as I sling open the door, it becomes apparent to me that I neglected to open the shutters and peak at the weather.
IT.
IS.
POURING.
