Rain away

It's starting to feel as if it's been raining every day since the beginning of recorded history. Sure I'm exaggerating. But it just doesn't stop and it's starting to be annoying. It hasn't been real summer here on the east coast, and I admit I like that it hasn't been ninety or above, but this every single day of thunder and rain, rain and thunder is just getting tiresome. Humidity in the eight or nine hundred percent range. Dark dark afternoons and evenings. Needing two or three umbrellas at home and at the office because they take so long to dry off, clammy furniture, hair never quite dry after the morning shower, damp laundry even out of the dryer, a feeling of heaviness in the air so you can't breathe all that well except early in the morning, a few strange insects and bugs coming inside because even they want to dry off (who's anthropmorphizing, who?). Couldn't the rain rain go away and come again another day in about two weeks after we all dry off and have some nice normal sunny summer weather? Just a few days. To weed our gardens and mow our lawns and sit on the porch and get some vitamin d from the air instead of supplements. Wouldn't that be nice? (What do the plinth sitters do when/if it rains like this??)
