rain, rain, go away
It's been raining a lot lately here and it's bothering me more so than usual. I think the issue was before last weekend, we had like a month of no rain at all so it made planning days very easy; put on shorts and short sleeves and don't even worry about anything else. Now I have to like check half a dozen weather sites to see what the consensus is about the possibility of rain. Of course, all this rain has stopped the local news media dead in their tracks with trying to scare us with wild fire stories. Speaking of which, the news media has totally dropped the swine flu thing, probably because nothing happened.
After work today I'm going to go for a walk through the house with our foreman (or is it, forelady?). I have no idea what I'm supposed to look for other than something painfully obviously wrong like a space ship that crashed through the ceiling (at least I think that would be a problem). I guess I'm just there to nod my head, look around and surmise that everything looks good. It's kind of like inviting someone who works at a gas station to go inspect the space shuttle prior to launch. I should show up with an exaggerated large magnifying glass, a note pad and every so often exclaim "ah-HA!".
