I love rainy days. It’s a good excuse to lay around all day. This week it rained for three consecutive days. I caught up on the final season of Entourage and was disappointed to learn that Turtle has lost weight and stopped wearing his baseball caps and basketball jerseys. I also put a significant dent in Ken Follett’s Fall of Giants, which I’m really enjoying. But I found that none of my summer playlists worked well with a rainy day. So I made a new one. Here it is; enjoy your next rainy day:
