The raindrops keep falling on my head.

This is reminding me of my first couple of weeks in Vancouver about five years back. It had rained staight on through for about two weeks. I was on the phone with my brother when I mentioned that I was giving it another week. If it didn’t stop by then, I was moving back to Winnipeg.

Fortunately for me, the rain did stop - after four more days - and Winnipeg remains on the other side of the Rockies from me. I’ve even got used to the rain. Heck, it beats minus thirty in a snowstorm - even with a boil-water advisory.

Some will be able to spend their wet weekends indoors with their Playstation 3’s. Not me, though. I just wish I could think of an activity that would be fun in the rain. You’d think Vancouverites would have invented one by now.
