and when it wasn't raining it was overcast.

it started to clear out as dusk was setting in.

we had all the lights on all day for the plants. my mom has brought her plants indoors for the winter so there are little groups of them here and there, and my big plant on the coffee table.

i didn't see the forecast for tomorrow but i think i heard grumbling about there being more bad weather.

i actually don't mind rain. it's odd. i don't like getting wet when it gets too cold though. so here, i mostly limit myself to watching it or listening to the tippety tap and slushy car sounds, from inside.

when i lived in the subtropics i adored rain and big storms. when there wasn't electrical activity, i would sometimes go out and walk barefoot in the rain in summer (even the raindrops were warm), and go back inside happily drenched. it was perfectly delectable. wet grass underfoot and the warm scent of wet earth in the air.

there you have it, my life in one word: nostalgia.
