I’m Only Happy When it Rains

Today, this is not true, at least not if we are talking about actual rain. I am damp and have been for the past few days. We have flooding during what is usually our summer drought season. I am not used to this, and I do not like my feet being wet if I am not in the pool or the ocean.

Still, I am singing this Garbage song in my head being reminded of a conversation I had with my husband when we first started dating. This was something that we connected on.

We both feel like, at times, nothing is meant to go right for us. Him more than me. It is one of his mantras. The world is out to get him.

I do like to be sunny on occasion, but there is still the overthinker underneath that I keep hidden some of the time. I always think of the worst possible scenario. And I am way too observant. I notice patterns. And patterns can turn into flags really quickly for me.

I like to try to focus on simple explanations, but sometimes the simplest answer is still some type of unethical situation.

I am looking forward to growing through some of this and becoming more secure. The issue can sometimes be, I stop overthinking when I stop caring.
