wellies, gloshes, rainboots, oh my!



dear weather,

i am not very happy with you. the past week here in NYC has been severely gloomy. you have been sending us heavy grey skies and left us with puddles along every sidewalk. you have also been very inconsistent; varying degrees of wetness falling between drizzle and pouring rain.

as far as the eye can see are intertwining streams of umbrellas. colliding colors of umbrellas popping up out of subway exits and apartment buildings. umbrellas are bad for the flow of human traffic.

depressing. even kathie lee is more popular than al roker this week.

to add to your gloominess are the awful wellies that we all must rely on. they inevitably ruin newly ironed pants as we stuff the hems in. "fuzz up" the back of tights. kick up muddy water onto the back of whatever one is wearing.

in addition, no one really looks good in a good pair of hunters - besides, of course, kate moss at glastonbury with the help of some sequins.

please go. perhaps visit the south of texas. i hear they currently have a D4 drought intensity.

sincerely,

lee
