It's raining lots, today.
The day started off raining, then it quit during lunchtime, then the pouring returned with a vengeance. The sky is grey and the rest of the atmosphere has seemingly taken the cue to match the dress-code.
I like the sound of the rain, but I do also find it a little weird. It's like the inverse of a skeumorph. The noise reminds me of TV static. That's not like a skeumorph at all, actually... Hopefully you get my meaning.
As I write, this, the rain has mostly let up once more. There's a huge rainbow right outside my window. The wind has also calmed down, a bit, so the eucalyptus are pointing straight up again.
Eucalyptus are great trees for the wind. They have these long and thin leaves that really give the feeling of motion when they're being blown violently to the side. It makes the trees look very cartoonishly crooked.
If the weather stays decent, I'll try to convince my brother to go out for a walk with me.
