Got caught in the rain.

First time in a long time I got caught in a decent rain. I was on my street, so didn't have far to go to reach home. However, getting caught in the rain isn't what I'd call, fun. Since I use a gel cushion, I don't feel like I'm sitting on a sponge or puddle. I'll get a bath to get rid of the grit. But, still, You can see where I'd feel gross. Of course the rain pretty much stopped shortly after I returned home and then the bugs came out and tried to make a meal out of me.

The last time I remember getting caught in the rain was when I was a university student. I got off the bus which stopped at the gate of our campus and I needed to commute going to the dormitory. But there was none and I was getting impatient, so I braved he pouring rain and started walking. I was soaked upon reaching the dormitory and when I entered, all eyes were on me.

@RubyHawk It wasn't so bad to start. Which I consider a good thing.

@kaylachan It wasn’t raining hard when I went out and I finished my walk without getting wet.

Bugs in Florida are vicious. My husband has a cousin who just moved to Daytona Beach. Hope you have a good evening. We are hoping to get some rain this evening. We need it badly.

@kaylachan Seems like they really do. His cousin is out at the beach all the time.

@LindaOHio I don't actually go out on the sand anymore. Those days are behind me. But I still like the views.

The stickiness after being in the rain is the worst!

For me, feeling like I'm rolling in sand, because of the mud is the worst.

Doesn't sound fun. I was out today and luckily stayed dry for the most part.

I won't get sick. A hot bath will feel good, though.

I hate these thunderstorms they spook me and my cats and I have to keep praying everything will be all right with my PC, Got up this morning turn on the desktop nothing. At least my friend NIck down below is an expert on PCs. Came up and did whatever it is that has to be done and I was back online. Then the booms and lightning came back in the afternoon and Freddie nearly knocked me down heading for the closet. This had become life here for now 
I hope Chily is taking it like a man.

Sometimes, a shower can come with very little warning. It's good you had a gel cushion rather than something else.

As long as there is no lightning; I do not mind getting caught in the rain sometimes.

I'm fine, as long as I can see where I'm going. Needless to say, my bath towel has a date with the laundry.
