Singing In The Rain

Published on June 10, 2006 By MasonM In Blogging

We've been getting rain bands from the tropical depression moving into the Gulf since late afternoon. It did cool things off quite a bit and was welcome.

Around 6:00PM I had finished debugging some code I have been writing and started the compiler. I decided that, as it would likely take an hour or so to compile, it was a good time to hop on my bike and go get some beer. Just about that time it really cut loose with some heavy rain.

What the hell, it's not like a bit of water will kill me, I went anyway. It was actually a lot of fun. I rode a short distance and the "singing in the rain" thing occured to me so I started singing at the top of my lungs as I peddled along. I'm sure it was a hilarious site for anyone seeing this fat guy riding a recumbent bicycle in the rain singing "Don't Worry, Be Happy".

The things we do to amuse ourselves.

I like being in the rain.

What's nice is here we usually get a light, misty rain. And it smells SO good!

Yeah, I don't mind being rained on. Sometimes it's actually nice (unless I happen to be wearing an expensive suit, which doesn't happen often these days)

Reports just in from the Florida Highway Police. Looking for a mad man riding a bent and singing loudly while being drenched! Film at 11!

I love rain...especially powerful, earth shaking thunderstorms. LOVE THEM.
