Leakage

I have an umbrella that I love. Actually, I have two umbrellas, but this one is oh so cute, so compact that it fits in my tote bag quite easily, and the fabric is tons of faux visas from all over the world. I get tons of compliments on it whenever I use it, and we all know that that's why we really carry cute umbrellas.

Well, it's been raining here for two days now. That's not a bad thing; it hasn't rained here in over a month and we really do need the rain.

But standing in the driving rain last night for 30 minutes waiting for my (very late) bus was NOT really the time I wanted to find out that my beloved umbrella has somehow sprung a leak.
