Preparation

is one of my specialities. I'm not so good at execution. So instead of going for a walk on this record-breaking 90+ degree in October day, I got myself one fewer excuse for not going out when it is rainy and yukky. This baby is not only rain proof but it has underarm zippers so I don't sweat like a pig.

Driving home it occurred to me that old ladies are supposed to have purple hair and wear those plastic bonnets to keep their done hair from getting mussed. I never seem to be able to get it right.
