Ramblings

It's pouring rain again. And by pouring I really mean that it's coming crashing down, almost as if I were sleeping behind a waterfall. It's incredible soothing and incredibly thought-provoking. I don't know why, but for some reason I do some of my best thinking late, late at night. On a side note, did I mention how much I love to play piano when it rains? There's something about rain that makes the most ordinary things seem absolutely magical. But maybe that's just my strange imagination. Anyway, I feel like I've already talked about rain too much so we'll just move right on along. My Grandpa is here this week and so my family has had a couple late nights playing card games. It's been great fun for all of us, but especially for me. Tonight after my younger siblings went to bed it was just my grandpa, my parents, and me playing Skip Bo and really enjoyed it. Though I must admit that late nights and sugar, plus a lack of sleep puts me in a really weird mood, and I start singing off key, quoting random movies, and laughing at the slightest things. Not to mention there was vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries to top it all off. Ahhhh good times(: I love being able to be my crazy self around my family. It's such a relief to be around those who accept you and all your zaniness and absurdities, and not only accept it but join in on the fun.
