I'm Only Happy When It Rains

The title of this post is an absolute untruth. But in my music obsessed mind, i tend to think in song lyrics...and this is what hit me tonight.

I love it when it rains in Los Angeles. I have been here for almost 2 and 1/2 months and this is the second time I have seen rain. It's like a postcard from home. It's a great metaphor for this town actually...no matter how hard LA tries to be bulletproof...there are still some things that are just out of its control. SO many people in this town are all style, no substance. So when it rains...I love to watch all of the beautiful people go running and screaming, as if this was another Pearl Harbor going down...if a little bit of water falling from the sky ruin's your evening...I don't want to know you...not at all.

So I do indeed love Los Angeles...but I think I will choose to stay grounded in my Midwestern roots...where substance definitely has the upper hand over style.
