The weather this week has been very dull. It's not really raining that much but it feels like it has been for days. I like the rain once in a while but not everyday, but I miss the sun. The rain does have some benefits:

• The way you feel when you give in and let the rain fall over you. You lift your face to the sky and are greeted with hundreds of responses. A layer is lifted off of you as you walk in the rain. Especially summer rain, you would rather be outside and wet than inside and dry.


• The way you laugh when you see a dog walking in the rain. Every few steps the dog sniffs every possible crevace and then shakes viguorously trying to remove all the water. You laugh harder as the dog attempts to dry itself every minute or so.


• The way your friends scream at you when you jump in the middle of the puddle sending streams of water in every direction but your own.

Do you like the rain?
