I realized I had a camping trip this upcoming weekend. Excitement ensued. Then, I checked the weather. Mother fucking rain. Again. Still on the fence about going or not. The problem is that I took a day off work. It's not that easy to switch them around. Which means if I try to camp there again, it will just be over night.

Why does the universe not want me to camp?

One summer when I was working at the speed shop, the drag races got rained out 13 Sundays in a row.

That sucks. Last weekend was gorgeous. Should've camped then. Probably would have still rained.

I'm trying to outsource the decision. So far it's 50/50. One for reschedule and one for go

Fuck it. I'm going. I'm more prepared this time. I'll actually set up a tarp. At the worst, I'll be "stuck" in my hammock during the rain. oh no!

Have you considered the possibility it will only rain if you go?

You could stand at the entrance to the campground and promise to leave if they pay you. You know, make lemonade.

Try renting a rustic cabin somewhere.

bbro, if you were camping with the right partner, at the end of the weekend you wouldn't even know if it had rained.
