It's Raining Mener, Rain!

I love this weather.  I know that it is probably the effects of global warming, and I know that lots of places have been suffering because of the crazy weather, but me, I am living it up while I have it!

Where I live, it is normally really hot at this time of year, and each year, I get really homesick for my family's home in the States because there they get all four seasons.  Here it is normally summer and winter (which in my opinion is more like fall).

But now, wow, it's amazing.  The past few day have had a wonderful breeze and I could even go outside in pants (normally I'm too hot).  But the best thing happened this morning.  It rained!!!  It rained!!!  It never rains at this point in the year, the rainy season starts in mid to late October.  Last year it only rained a few times all season (till the rainy season ended and it then rained a bunch of times- global warming for you).

The thing is, it didn't only rain this morning, it was chilly too!  I left home in a long sleeve shirt today.  For the fist time since I moved here from the States, I have never, ever felt autumn.  Today I did.  Maybe global warming will actually give my country the four seasons I have so often prayed for.

I am not one to be happy with hurting our planet, but the feeling I had waking up this morning and feeling Autumn?maybe that is the one positive side effect of global warming- some of us get to experience better weather?
