I forgot the Rain

So it was nice and grey and overcast here in usually-sunny california. I made the best out if it and slept until 2. i did get brunch from 11-12. who doesn't want to stay in bed all day when its grey and overcast and your bed and fuzzy and warm? I know I do.

One of my friends offered this gem, as we were talking about how we liked the rainy weather today. She told us that the smell that rain makes when it hits dry earth is called Petrichor. It has its origins in greek, where  petra, meaning stone + ichor, the fluid that flows in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology.
