  | listen to the rain |  
  | The rain has not stopped pouring the whole day. Since I was on the road for most of the day doing errands, going to an interview and whatnot, I haven't had much time to return messages or phone calls. And as soon as I got home, I just fell asleep. Darnit. Missed Family Guy again but was able to catch The Apprentice and Desperate Housewives over dinner leftovers. (I put the link of Apprentice Season 2 because some of you might not want to see Season 3's winner just yet) 
 Then I went to catch up with all the messages...rain really has an effect on people's psyche. As far as I can tell, i think it's the fact that no one leaves the house to avoid any of the flu-ingested drops...and that leads to some alone time...that leads to too much thought...and dissatisfaction.
 
 So instead of the flu, some are stricken with loneliness, inadequacy-with-income issues, love troubles or just the lack thereof. Sigh. Like the worst kind of cabin fever.
 
 I'm here outside in the patio having my cigarette when dad comes out and says - "I really like the rain. It's so relaxing. and the weather is great." And you know what? that's true! it's very relaxing. I get to wear all my favorite coats and sweaters again. I personally like the convenient excuse to stay in bed all day. I just mellow out in my little chair, nursing a warm cuppa joe and a good book. I'm not really sad at all.
 
 At least I'm in a good frame of mind to help everyone else get out of their doldrums.
 
 Listen to each drop of rain
 Whispering secrets in rain
 Magically searching for someone to hear
 That story be more than it hides
 Please don't let go
 Can't we stay for a while
 It's just too hard to say goodbye
 Listen to the rain
 
 listen to the rain
 Weeping
 
 I stand alone in the storm
 Suddenly sweet words they know
 Hurry they say for you haven't much time
 Open your eyes to the love around you
 You may feel you're alone
 But I'm here still with you
 You can do what you dream
 Just remember to listen to the rain
 
 Listen
