I hereby declare the rainy season to be Over.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it make a sound?

If I declare the rainy season to be over and nobody hears it, is it really over?

Well, hear this, world:

It is June the first, and I hereby declare the rainy season to be over.

I've had my fair share of thorough soakings this season.

Some of them were fun.

Some of them were frustrating.

Some of them were slightly life-threatening.

But now, it is no longer May.  The kids are back in school,

the nights are getting cooler, the days are less humid.  The rains are falling away.

So, here's to the memory of being thoroughly soaked and fancy-free:

...and now, we'll have no more of that, please.

Out of these wet clothes and into a dry martini!  Er, season.
