monsoons begin

It has been raining now for 24 hours. Obviously the Rocket Festival worked again this year. And, obviously, in keeping with this month's theme, peeps are cropping up with the storms while others are drowned out by thunder.
I just wonder what June will bring, but that may be getting a little ahead of myself. I really can't wait to see. Despite yet another stomach ailment coupled with a nasty cough, I maintain optimism. It's much easier when the sun isn't pummelling your skin and brain, and sleeping is easy, if a bit moist.
