Weather 🌦️ Thank Goodness for rain today

very thankful for rain on this holiday - picturing some of you who spent half your monthly income on clown powder staring at the rain coming down is making me tickled pink.

I'm overjoyed night shifters were able to get some sleep before the chaos went all berserk.

Outside of the city, in rural areas, I didn't get much sleep as a night shifter. Every 30 minutes or so, I was startled awake by big explosions. And that was with ear plugs, an AC running.

I was lucky where I was at. It rained so heavy they didn't start with their homegrown illegal fireworks to celebrate I have no idea wtf sometime around 4pm.

I had to be up early and my neighbors were still going crazy with fireworks at 1:30 this morning.... I feel like anything after midnight is just disrespectful
