Rain, rain, why won’t you go away, and come again when spring is on its way? I don’t know about you, but it’s December, and that means the only precipitation I want to see is snow. Wet weather has been frequent recently, but rather than wallow in misery, I’ve been enjoying all the adorable rain-boots-and-puddle-jumping photos in my Twitter feed. After all, every cloud has a silver lining—and there have been a lot of clouds lately—there are still plenty of ways to have fun on rainy days!

Child: My friend has a brother and he’s acting a little coocoo. Me: Call me when he’s full coocoo. Medium coocoo is allowed. — Ingrid (@MagpieLibrarian) December 5, 2014
As a medium coocoo person myself, I fully back this rule.

Quack! I bet that umbrella can brighten even the dreariest of days. Until the rain turns to snow, I’ll keep trudging around the city under my boring black umbrella.
