And On We Blindly Stumble! 3.4

Its cloudy and thick with a overcast today with light and heavy showers mingling throughout the afternoon, the feeling is dark and gloomy. I love it when it rains, the lack of light enables any night wanderer to mingle in daytime without being blinded by the daystar (Sun) and to experience things in a different light, so to speak, i find my days a lot more enjoyable when its cloudy. The only problem is when you are in southern New Mexico it tends to get muggy and hot after it rains, I am not too crazy about that, the rain I can stand but the after effects get to you. Another thing is when you are in the middle of a city, being a couple of miles from Texas and the Mexico border, the rain tends to come down and makes the air smell like wet dog or ammonia. Back home in northwest New Mexico you get this wonderful smell and such a nice atmosphere when the somewhat pure H2O mixes with NATURAL dirt and NATURALLY OCCURING foliage, this scent I have found to be extremely difficult to artificially produce and is only appreicated standing in the middle of a mountan cornfield miles away from the nearest house in a light lukewarm drizzle with your face upturned to the sky.... One of the many limitations about living in a big city. How do people do it?
