It's raining today. Storming, actually. I like storms when I can stay home and snuggle in bed or on the sofa and read or watch tasteless television all day. I don't like them when I have to get out in them and drive to work under conditions so bad I can't go over 45 mph without losing control of my car. Nor do I like them when they pull a fakeout by letting up when I get to the parking lot, then starting back up again when I'm halfway to my building sans umbrella.

I'm wet, I have a headache, and I was 20 minutes late to work. Welcome to my day.
