Rain!!!!!

It rained today in Paris

Yaaaay finally!!! most people would think "Another rain filled day that is positively dreary and wet." But I don't. Paris weather is so flabbergasting. When it's sunny your back gets hot and you feel squirmy... no good. When it's  cloudy you feel depressed and think that the rest of your life is going to be stuck under a enormous gray, dreary, disgusting cloud. And then when you're feeling a bit under the cloud (tee hee get the pun? No? Okay I'll stop.), rain strikes, and suddenly you feel that all that miserableness you endured - no, my jokes are not miserable -  don't matter anymore and you feel free and happy. All of the pollution has been washed away and the sky seems clear. You take a breath and for once you feel positively blissful. You feel as though not just the earth has been washed, but your soul as well. Your misfortunes seem to be in another universe, so far away that not even the TARDIS could reach it. Wow. Just WOW.

You know the rule: every good thing has a bad side, a "cloudy side of the force" if you will (I just don't stop do I?) The bad side is that the water from the rain hides what you're walking in in the street. For example, one day I was walking home from school and I saw a puddle on the sidewalk. I ran up and splashed in it. Suddenly I realized that it hadn't rained for a couple of weeks. What had I just jumped in? I then saw a thin yellow stream running down from a splatter on the wall. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
That is what the rain hides.


Is the rain for you overall a good thing or a bad thing? Leave a comment to answer in the comment section. Please? For pies sake?
