Things Californians get excited about
Woman in the Middle | May 13, 2015A short list of “things Californians get excited about” has been going around among my Facebook friends. Like so many of those funny things on Facebook, there is an element of truth to it. Actually, it is all true. My comments are in parenthesis.
Things Californians get excited about:
1. Rain (Even when we aren’t having a drought)
2. When avocados go on sale (Even better is when that rare coworker who has an avocado tree brings them in and gives them away for FREE!)
3. When it is raining (because we are either in a drought or are about to be washed away in a flood. Either way, rain is definitely an event to pay attention to)
4. Going to In and Out (They do have good burgers and they are only in California. Bwahahahha)
5. When water falls from the sky (When ever it rains the folks on the local news scream “STORM WATCH” at us. It makes every rain event very concerning and exciting)
What do you get excited about where you live?
So Californians like rain, interesting, didn’t know that, I like rain too, if it is a night or on a day when I do not have to leave the house, I also like sunshine and heaters and air conditioning when it is stinking bloody hot………………..just saying
I am not sure if we like the rain, it just gets us very excited, for good or for bad!
I will share this post with my son, who is visiting from CA and arriving tomorrow. What do we get excited about in Virginia? Spring! And we’re in it right now.
Hope it gives him a laugh!
I live next to a wildlife preserve and I get excited about the critters that visit. I prefer the ones that don’t eat my flowers but I don’t get to be picky.
