The rain is soft and soothing. The sounds of splashing from passing cars, mixed with the organized chaos of tens of thousands of droplets falling in unperfect unison makes for a comforting experience. Then, add on the wind as it rustles wet leaves on street lined trees. Nature in the city. Beautiful.

It's moments like these that make living worth it. It's free, it's real, and it helps relieve us of our damn drought. (yes my non-philly readers... we are in a drought.)

Now every one of you sons of bitches go out and buy a matchbox toy car so you can get a free password and play on Planet Hot Wheels with me. Who knew that little car racing games would be so damn addicting!

I sure didn't.
