Syracuse wind: 2, my umbrellas: 0

So, for the second time in a little over a year, I need a new umbrella. Dammit. By the looks of it, though, I'm not alone.




One of my DH's coworkers apparently arrived at work with her umbrella blown inside out and its shaft bent at a 90-degree angle. Yeah, it was a blustery day today.

I hate blustery days. I hate them so much, I actually looked up a list of least windy cities in the U.S. not too long ago. Surprisingly enough, a significant number of them were in Alaska. So, uhm, if I tell you one day that I'm moving to Medford, Oregon or Oak Ridge, Tennessee, you'll know why.
