The drive in this morning was quick - light traffic probably for those people starting early on "getaway day" for the long holiday weekend. When I got out of the car at the office, I noticed that the parking lot was damp, as if it just rained. I inhaled and sure enough, it must have rained because the air had that wonderful smell of rain. You know that smell, don't you? It's very distinctive. Moist. Clean. I really love and appreciate that smell. It put a totally different spin on my morning, just smelling that rain in the air as i walked into the building.
Time for another Friday Five...
1. What brand of toothpaste do you use? Crest gel
2. What brand of toilet paper do you prefer? Oh, oh... this is a wife-thing. She buys it and I never see it in the wrapping, so I don't know what it is!
3. What brand(s) of shoes do you wear? Rockports
4. What brand of soda do you drink? I'm a Coca-Cola Man, not a Pepsi man (which, somehow, has infiltrated every sporting venue that I go to...). Specifically, Caffeine-Free Coke. Runners up: Green River, IBC Root Beer.
5. What brand of gum do you chew? Favorite stick - Juicy Fruit. Has to be something that lasts a while. I've got some grape Big League Chew at my desk, too.
