It's like ra-aa-ain on your wedding day...

Isn't it ironic, don't you think? No, it's just shitty, as my brother and I determined a while ago - almost all of the situations in Alanis' song "Ironic" merely describe shitty, and not ironic, situations. But I digress ... I just wanted to say how hilarious it is to see people in my lovely mid-sized Canadian town get freaked out about the rain. They're fine with it being minus 40 and windy as hell in the winter time, but when it rains a little during the summer (as it also did last year) they grumble, whine and complain about being depressed, lethargic, and altogether out of sorts. I'm not saying I'm a big fan of rain, and that was certainly not the case when I moved here from Raincouver a year ago ... I couldn't wait to have a fucking dry summer, fall, winter and spring. Ok sure eternally peeling hands and feet, nosebleeds, shocks and always being thirsty are slight down sides to the dryness, but personally, and even though it may be slowly killing me, I have to say I much prefer the dryness of this province. That being said, a little rain never hurt anyone - in fact, it's probably making people healthier without them even knowing it! Yes, yes, this post was a little pointless and full of contradiction ... a little like my job is sometimes.
