In the cold December rain.
I almost bought galoshes today when I was shopping. Galoshes for an San Diegan is not exactly the most practical purchase, but I almost rationalized the buy with the notion that in less than a year, I will be living in a place where galoshes will be a necessity rather than novelty (I've convinced myself that I'll be residing on the East Coast by Fall 2005). How happy it'd make me to look in the closet and see an article of clothing that signifies that I will soon be moving on (though perhaps not up).
So why the hesitation and clamp down on the purse strings? My indecisiveness? Doubt over the transnational relocation? The gnawing thought that perhaps my dream won't be realized?
None of the above - they were just really ugly.
