Still Raining

[rejectomorph]

When I went to my Lycos in box to fetch e-mail tonight, I noticed that the local weather forecast which they display for me there said that Paradise will have "tons of rain" on Thursday and Friday. Heh. Tons. By Saturday, there will merely be "rain." I take this to mean that less than two tons will fall that day. I love an accurate forecast.

After some blustery hours last evening, the storm has settled down to a fairly steady drizzle. Drizzles make for soothing listening. In fact, I keep nodding off as a result of the hypnotic purr of rain on the leaves outside my window. I'm like the soil, soaking it up after the long dry spell. Soon, green thoughts. For now, sleep.

A couple of "back-of-the-envelope" calulations lead to me to believe that 1 inch of rain falling upon the typical 1/4 acre residential lot will weigh a little more than 30 tons.
