ellarienI spent the morning trundling down to the Health Department on the other side of town (a two-bus trip with bonus tour of Tucson's compact and bijou downtown area), getting immunized, and trundling back. Then I went over to the Union for lunch. Just as I was stepping into the bookstore afterwards, it started to rain.
And this time, it really rained -- about an inch in half an hour -- and thundered, and lightened, and flooded every slightly concave area of the campus, including the one right outside the bookstore. I settled in a comfy chair by the window, with half an eye on the bouncing raindrops outside, and started reading Foreign Babes in Beijing. After a while, I called my boss on the cellphone to take a raincheck, as it were, on our 2pm meeting. Eventually the rain slacked off a bit, and I went to check out, and added to my purchases an umbrella from the display thoughtfully placed by the registers. Armed with that, I made it back to the office, wading at times ankle-deep but getting my dress only a little damp.
