It is raining

The title of the post was 'It's raining outside' until I realised that it contained one unnecessary word and an equally unnecessary contraction. I dislike contractions. I like that way that sentences seem more deliberate without them. I figure if I need it, I may as well use the whole word. Obviously my time is not very valuable.

Anyway, back to inclement weather. I love it when it rains like this. Mercilessly. With hail and thunder and lightning. I was a bit upset when I sat myself down by the window and then my high-quality house decided to leak so I had to attend to the water gushing down the walls. So really, it was raining inside, too.

When the leaking had mostly subsided, I took some photos from my seat by the window.
