Quirk

People seem not to believe me when I say rain and gray weather invigorate me more than sunshine ever will.  A chronically clinically depressed person, they argue, would benefit from warmth and sunlight. 

When it's cold or rainy or what other people might call "dreary," I can stay in feeling cozy. The lamp lights throughout the house give things a glow that sunny days don't allow you to see.  Plus, rain produces one of my favorite sounds: cars driving through it.  Things are snuggly, and you can read or do crossword puzzles or work jigsaw puzzles and comfortably drink hot beverages.

It's been raining here for the last couple of days, there's a good chance it'll rain over the next few, there's lots of football on TV. . .   Lovely.
