Surviving Wet Coast

Instructions for living on the on the wet west coast.


  1. When leaving in the morning check the weather outside the window before leaving the apartment.
  2. Take a hat.
  3. Take a jacket.
  4. When getting gas, park far enough under the covered area that wind will not blow rain on you while filling your car.
  5. Get your morning mocha.

Almost didn’t get up this morning because my body was quite convinced it was still the middle of the night. Took forever for my eyes to adjust to light…. I guess waking up to bright sun or at least sun rising directly into my eyes in the mornings has been spoiling me. At least I can’t complain about how hot it is anymore, and don’t feel guilty about being inside. Yay, only 4 more months of this! At least it’s not snowing here yet though.

  1. After starting to take public transit in May, today was the first day I got really wet on the way to work (15 minute walk to the first early
    morning bus). I’ll dry fine (shoe’s a little wet still), but since I take my laptop to and from work daily, I hope it doesn’t rain more as it’s going get wet. I have this great ( http://www.willowdesign.com/PK-02.html ) laptop backpack, but it still gets wet after a time. Anyone have any GOOD ideas besides putting the laptop in a plastic bag?
