I'm a Rebel

I broke the coveted rule at work today...

(pausing for suspense and anticipation)

I opened my windows. I can hear the waves of gasps as you read this.

But there is something about a spring shower that I just have to hear. At night, a thunderstorm will lull me to sleep. Maybe it’s the idea of washing away the old, the water giving way to new life. But there’s just something about a spring rain.

And besides, I need something to keep me from falling asleep. Although the sound of rain tapping on the window panes may not be the answer.

What kinda of rules (dare I say, stupid rules) have your broken lately?
