Rain rain rain

This past weekend it rained practically continuously for 2 to 3 days.  This was awesome because it kept the temperature down.  It was not so awesome because the rain is extremely loud against the corrugated metal roof of the house.  Also there are holes in the roof.  Holes above my bed.  So my bed is in a perpetual state of dampness.  Also, when it rains, water does not flow through the pipes, so the toilet did not flush and bucket baths were the name of the game (not like that is all that unusual).  There was also no effective way for me to get from my room to the bathroom without getting drenched in the process.  However, there was no permanent flooding, and it appears that the people here are accustomed to this sort of thing.  It does seem to rain a little at least every day here.
