Will the Rain Ever End?

I love the rain. Okay, that's not entirely true. I love puddles. And I even love drizzle. I do not like 4-day long downpours - that interferes with my ability to play outside. In the middle of such a downpour, when there is a brief break in the weather, I try to cram four days worth of outdoor playing into 10 minutes. I was mildly sucessful at best.
