Fuck it, I'm building an ark....
It has rained here in California so much lately, and the reports said we might have a light rain come Sunday.

It has been pouring for hours.

And of course, I have a morning meeting at work, 50 miles away, over a winding mountain road.

grrrrrr

5. Damn! Sorry, guys. But please...
...keep it up north. Down here in SoCal, I just got done ripping out the drywall ceiling that got ruined in the last deluge. (Not as bad as it could be. It's in the garage level of the condo.)

Week before last, we not only got HEAVY rain but thunderstorms. Lightning took out a transformer, leaving me and 10,000 other people without power for nearly 2 days.

Adding my own "grrrr..."

17. Oh me believe you
Working in the tropics, I'd frequently check mine for signs of unusual somatic happenings (I'll spare you the elephantiasis picture).

11. Don't forget to include to sets of gay people.
We'd appreciate it. Even if you don't, more of us will spring up later. Hey, Dookus. I KNOW you have a sense of humor. :hug:

14. rained all day here too...
but that usually means tahoe got some snow, so that makes me happy. I am getting sick of the pinging on my a/c's. If I remember my first spring here (last year) it had already stopped raining by now, and didn't rain again until November, right? so this is unusual I assume.
