View Full Version : Rainy Days and Mondays!
Wreckless 09-06-2008, 01:43 PM Ok it's pouring out- doesn't have to be a nasty, horrible Monday where you can't seem to get yourself out of bed but it's nasty out and the weather conditions will remain this way all day long. What do you do, what are you doing? Maybe play a board game? Today I got up a little later, ate some cereal, watched tv and put on sweats and relaxed. What about everybody else getting these horrid rain storms today or any other day of the year?
catlover79 09-06-2008, 01:49 PM I love those kinds of days, especially if I'm off. I will lie around all day long, maybe brew some tea and watch some TV on DVD while I scrapbook. :D I hate working days like that because rainy weather makes me very sleepy. :lol:
Wreckless 09-06-2008, 02:00 PM Yeah same, it makes me sleepy as well lol. It's a nice relaxing day, plus I love rain/the sound of rain so it's good. Almost therapudic :lol:
catlover79 09-06-2008, 02:01 PM Yes, the sound of rain pattering on the roof or windows can be a very comforting thing. :D
Wreckless 09-06-2008, 02:03 PM ^ Yeah, especially when sleeping/trying to sleep lol. Also, the water when somebody else is taking a shower relaxes me, while I'm on that subject LOL..
veggie-tari-jenn 09-06-2008, 11:25 PM I love the sound of rain...takes my thoughts right to Meditation and Yoga...Cause most of my relaxation cds involve rain of some sort.
Schmoopie 09-06-2008, 11:28 PM I like the rain, too (after all this is Seattle!). I like to stay inside and watch DVDs and so forth. Just as long as the sun comes out once in a while!

InspectorExstead 09-06-2008, 11:56 PM i looooove rainy days. the best ones are always on weekends, when i don't have to go to school. usually i'll just stay home in my pjs, drinking tea, watching tv, reading, and doing some type of a craft. i've always loved rainy days, since i was little. i remember i would play board games with my family, make stamps out of potatoes, and watch as much tv as my mom would let me. lol.
SBTB Geek 09-07-2008, 12:57 AM I love rainy days as well especially since here in L.A. we don't get them often. The smell of wet sand and dirt is the greatest.
And unlike most people who like to stay indoors while it rains, I actually like to go out.
*Pleasant Tomorrow* 09-07-2008, 01:11 AM Yes, the sound of rain pattering on the roof or windows can be a very comforting thing. :D
It really is, I love the sound of rain when it's really quiet. Thunder, too, if it's not the really loud kind.
Wreckless 09-07-2008, 08:33 AM ^ I agree with everybody here lol. I think we've come to a con senses- Judges! We love rain!
Chocolate Moose 09-07-2008, 09:25 AM Rain is nice if you're ready for it. I have rainboots so that's part of the battle.
Wreckless 09-07-2008, 01:17 PM The only thing- I hate driving in rain. Listening to the rain and being inside is so much better, at least for me.

So do I!! I worry about all the other people on the road who can't seem to drive in the rain!!:p
I like rainy days, especially when I'm able to stay home!! I love living in FL, where of course, it's sunny most of the time, so when we get a day where it rains all day...well, yay!!
Wreckless 09-07-2008, 02:12 PM ^ Yeah, so do I. Yesterday when I went to the IMAX theatre in Philadelphia to see Dark Knight- their were so many idiots on the road lol. Yeah I like rainy days- just being able to relax and lay low, it's enjoying.
MrCleveland 09-07-2008, 05:41 PM I get those days...even when it's sunny.

I agree. Rainy days are a rarity here in L.A. I love how beautiful the beach looks and smells when it's raining. It's one of the few times you can take in a deep breath and not choke.
Janice 09-08-2008, 03:01 AM I don't like being caught in the rain, but I love rain, torrential rain, summer rain after a scorching day to cool things down. I love the song, Rainy Days and Mondays, by the Carpenters. Karen Carenter holds that last note like an opera singer. I loved Karen Carpenter, and her death always saddened me. She was on the mend too. My father loved her voice, said she sang like an angel. I love the song, Summer Rain, by Johnny Rivers. Why he wasn't more popular, I'll never know. Purple Rain and Prince, more good stuff. Where was I, okay, the rain, yes, I adore the rain.
Wreckless 09-10-2008, 02:22 PM I love that song too! That's how I came up with the name of the thread lol. Just a good tune to get you by on the rainy, boring days or bad days that never seem to end. I loved The Carpenters Christmas Albums, do you have any of those/have you listened to them in the past?
