Rain Idiot?
You're not an idiot, you're an addict. Way to go!
I've tried the same thing, only got soaked to the skin when the mist turned into an allout downpour while I was in the air. I lucked out and got it down in one piece (just dumb luck). It wasn't a pretty landing by any stretch of the imagination, but it served the purpose. Of course I got drenched in the process and caught h*** from my better half when I got home, but all in all, it was worth it for the two flights I did get in before the clouds opened up. The plane (a GP Fun One) didn't seem any the worse for the experience.
