I was up part of the night because I kept on thinking that my cat was eating food in the bedroom.  Weird, right?  Unless you've seen my cats, and realize how big and self-righteous they are, and would have absolutely no regard for a) my sleep or b) rules on eating in the bedroom!
When I finally awakened, however, I realized it wasn't the sound of cat food- it was the sound of very large raindrops outside my window!
Today is a grey, VERY rainy day and I am very happy that I wasn't supposed to work today.  It's a bit difficult to shoot when there is no sunshine!!

In honor of this rainy day, I found a beautiful umbrella at Barney's.  As I spend the other half of my time in Holland, the land of perpetual rain, I suppose it's time to start stocking up on gorgeous ways to forget the blues!
