It rained, it poured

It seems like we've gone back in time lately, it hasn't really been the best of weeks. With all the rain and humidity we've been having I swear its spring again.

Last night around 5pm {rush hour for most parts of the city} we experienced a flash flood maybe Toronto decided it needed a city-wide shower to scrub off the grime.

J had the day off and he planned to walk and meet me half way after I was done work. well we had another thing coming. When we set out for our walk we were greeted with a giant dark cloud covering the city. By the time we had met at the Eaton's centre we were both drenched {there is one thing I've learned about rainy days in the city, it's that it is always too hot for rain boots- my running shoes were full of water} We took the subway the rest of the way home. As soon as we got home we threw our dripping, wet, soggy clothes into the washer and jumped into the shower. Luckily we had enough time to finish our showers and the power went out. the entire city was in darkness, J and I decided we are not prepared for survival we had 1/4 bag of sunflower seeds, about 3 scoops of peanut butter and about half a loaf of bread in our cupboards to survive on without power. we do however have a crap ton of tea light candles yay for us! Finally about an hour later the power came back on, thank the lord and baby Jesus. I was starved! Finally we could cook our dinner. :D

check out some of the pictures I've found on the web.
