rain, rain go away

Yeah, I live in Seattle so for all intents and purposes I'm not supposed to be surprised by the weather. Especially in November. But, seriously nature, why do you suck so hard? It's fine for it rain in the typical, northwest style where you can't really tell whether it's raining or the air is just turning to sort of dry water. That's fine. Similarly, it would be fine for it be windy. It's November, there's wind, it's useful for getting the leaves off of the trees (yes, we have deciduous trees here too).

But, crazy almost east coast summer humidity relieving rain coupled with mega wind is too much. The power went out as I was leaving work today. You know what sucks harder than driving through a million stop lights on your way to the freeway during what constitutes rush hour in Lakewood? Driving through a million stop lights on your way to the freeway during what constitutes rush hour with the power out, so not only is it super dark and hard to see while it's storming, but the power was out so each and every one of those normally annoying stop lights now had to be treated as a four-way stop. It took approximately ten years for me to reach the freeway. So, I would officially like to register my complaint with mother nature and say, "suck it."
