rain

It's raining. It's been raining since Friday night. It's supposed to keep raining every day for at least the next week. I don't like rain. I don't mind it when it's a thunderstorm at night or when it's warm outside but rain here, in the cold, all the time stinks. Aside from the general unpleasantness of rain when it's cold outside and one has to walk everywhere, there's the significant drainage problem in the greater Boston area that creates lake-sized puddles at every intersection. All hopes of keeping pants-legs dry are dashed. And don't even get me started on my shrinking levels of motivation to do ANYTHING when it's so gray out..
