Raindrops, please keep falling!

Is it weird to thrive on days when the sun doesn't peak out from behind the clouds? For some reason I've always had an extra kick to my step whenever it's "gloomy" and "gray" outside. Right now I'm typing away while the raindrops landing on the sky light in my office are making little pitter-patter noises; they even sound like a person typing on a keyboard, in a way.

Maybe that's why I fell in love with England so quickly. Sure I complained about how much it rained while I was there, but it's things like that that I miss. It's funny, when you live in a desert you don't think of necessities like having an umbrella on hand, or wearing wellies. I even wrote two articles very recently on cute rain boots and umbrellas, for crying out loud! ...Sure wish I had either on hand; they would make my jaunt to the car in the rain a tad bit more enjoyable.
