Halfway (or more) through packing...

I will now take a break from packing to let you in on something that really grinds my gears.

Most of you know that I hate umbrellas. I don't need one for myself, because I like the rain, but more importantly, I am eye level with everyone else's umbrella. This is why I can never walk through busy places like Times Square in the rain. It is actually quite frightening, how careless people can be with their umbrellas, and occasionally, I will put my sunglasses on because I fear for my own eyes.

Here is a more recent annoyance of mine: People with umbrellas who walk along buildings and under awnings. That space is reserved for people who do not have umbrellas. You, have an umbrella, therefore, you do not need to be under the awning. This is similar to people who walk slower staying to the right, allowing people to pass. So please, remember, if you have an umbrella, you do not need to be under an awning. And when you're climbing stairs with a long umbrella, don't hold it horizontally-you'll impale the person behind you.
Thank You.

In other news, I finally tried Pretzel M&Ms today. Hannah bought me a bag. I have to say, they were pretty much exactly what I expected :)

Back to packing!!
