Rain's Comin'

Yeah, Rain's coming. No, I am not talking about the bare-his-tits Korean singer-actor who can't seem to keep his hands to himself. No offences to Rain's fans (or 비 or 정지훈 Jeong Ji-Hoon), but I am straight; I find no interest and no desire to scream when another man 1 year older than me clad in a tight leather suit (think Yahoo! Hard Gay) tries to smoother his way through with his slick moves. But well, full credits to him for dancing so well. Still, I think the tickets to his concert are way too expensive, but I am not buying so they don't concern me.

To fans who wasted a whole month's pay in order to watch him in concert, Mr Black sympathizes with you. Chasing stars is expensive; it gets even more expensive when their concert tickets don't convert to the correct currency in the correct country.


But no, I am not talking 'bout this Korean Rain.


I guess you don't really understand the impact of non-stop rain unless you are a housewife, or when you are stuck in a car which is stuck bonnet-deep in water in a thunderstorm. If you are staying at home, with no work for the holidays and no wish to venture out for fear of over-spending, or even spending for that matter, the rain is a welcome relief. It gives you that extra edge in order to convince yourself of the negative implications of going out: wet clothes, the need to bring a fugly umbrella out, denims that get wet and leave a weird smell on your body, your waxed hair turning unwaxed, your mom nagging you about the clothes not drying and urging you to wear partially dried underwear instead. Besides, the rain also conjures a pseudo-surrealistic feeling of comfort; your mind creates a ephemeral zone of protection against the harsh patter of rain outside when you snuggle and wage wars under your blanket. Air-con ceases to exist.

Mr Black like rainy days, yet 24 straight hours of it might be pushing the limit just a bit. Thank God for hearing that, for we saw a day of sunshine yesterday. But even as I blog now, I can see the dark clouds gathering in the distance. The draft of cold wind blowing into my room makes my fan redundant. It's not rainy today, nor is it sunny.

Gloom's comin'.

Brace yourself. And when rain comes again, you will know what to do.
