Rain


After weeks and weeks of stifling heat, it rained to-day.

True, it was sort of a hard drizzle and it was for all of 2 minutes. But it was enough for me to miss the thunderstorms. The smell of ozone, the tingle in the air, the buildup of clouds, the briskness of it all. And especially that first sweet onrush of air that announces an impending storm.


I really miss the rain, oh boy.

That happened here a few weeks ago after many weeks of drought and near-100 degree days. It was so funny to look around and see people coming out of their homes and offices and just standing in it, getting bloody soaked. Me? Yeah, I did it too...

I stood and stared up for a while myself :)
