07/07/2006: "Raining.."

Current Sounds: Junko Iwao - Marshmallow Yakero

Have I mentioned how much I like the rain? Of course, all in moderation. Being locked inside and having the streets flooded isn't really what I look forward to, but I find it really calming and peaceful to watch the rain hit the windows and hearing it fill puddles on the ground.

Rain always seems so sad, but I think that's what makes it so calming. To quote someone who is no longer alive, "We need to be sad sometimes, or else happiness doesn't have any meaning." I think they were right. There's also a certain sophistication, a level of detail to the dark atmosphere when the water comes falling.

Yes, today is a rainy day. Couldn't be more fitting, I guess, and I appreciate it. Today started off on a strange note, being contacted by someone I thought I had lost all contact with (and who pretty much stated that they hate everything about me).

Anyway, now that I rambled about weird, hardly-sensical things, I'm going to head off and play a game for awhile. The forecast says it should rain till Tuesday. I hope it does, but it'd be nice if there are breaks inbetween. After a day or so locked in a house with constant rain, I'm not the happiest person.
