Waiting for the stars to come out

Storms in Fallbrook are the best. They happen so rarely in America's finest county that when they come, my brother and I would just sit at the big picture window in my living room and watch the rain cascade down from the gutters with pure joy plastered on our faces. As much fun as the storm was, there would come that beautiful night where the clouds finally clear and the stars come out. And my God, there can not be anything more breathtaking than a night sky after a storm in Fallbrook. I feel like I can stare into it and never be confused or scared again.

That's about where I am right now. There have been--and are--some nasty clouds above me, looming ominously and every so often throw a lightening bolt my way. But they can't wait around forever, evtually the stars will come out. And I swear to God, I can't wait. It's been 2 months of storm. I'm ready for some sun.
