every time

Every time it rains, I love it. And every time it rains, I remember that scene in Goonies when they're all in the attic going through all the junk and they find the treasure map and somebody tells the story of One-Eyed Willie and pirates and this place across town and through the woods.

And as the rain comes down and pelts on the roof just outside my window, I'm in that moment. I'm living that moment. And I connect with that one kid with the inhaler because he has asthma and I have asthma and he can't wait for an adventure and I can't wait for one either.

Every time it rains, I wish I was a 14-year-old kid looking for treasure clues in an attic with Cindy Lauper songs dancing in my head.
