Raindrops

     Lately it's been raining so much. The air is freezing cold and the sky is way too dark and gray and sad. Everyone's been getting sick, including me. I've had some bad nauseated coughing and sneezing episodes. I also have a slight sore throat.
      But, strangely enough, I feel the need to just go outside and let my skin soak in it. Something about the bitter cold of the rain is comforting. It chills me to the bone, but it's comforting. It's strange, I know. Comfort in discomfort. I don't know how to explain it, really.
