Rain rain go away
 
well well, back at work again. yesterday was crazy!
I woke up around 6:00am to the sound of a raging waterfall crashing into my roof. It was some heavy fucking rain. the only rain I can compare it to is the Allison rain.
I got up showered, and looked outside and saw the park across the street flooded, the ditches running at full levels, everything soaked, and the rain not stopping. I look in my library and I have about 2 inches of water in there. FUCK! I called work and proceeded to wet vac the water out of there for a couple of hours. I got that done and then set up fans to dry the room, and then I got hi and then I fell asleep exhausted.

fun times! then I got up around 3:40, got stizzy again and watched world cup

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 06.20.2006 09:25 AM

screamingskull 06.20.2006 09:40 AM

i love the rain, have you ever been swimming in a lake or the ocean when its raining, thats great!

Tokolosh 06.20.2006 09:49 AM

Yeah, till it starts to thunder and there's a chance you might get fried by lightning.

Hip Priest 06.20.2006 10:17 AM

It's been light rain all day here. I find it most refreshing.

Rob Instigator 06.20.2006 10:20 AM

12 inches of rain in two hours is NO GOOD! NO GOOD I TELLS YA!

Hip Priest 06.20.2006 10:22 AM

That's a lot. We never get the extremes of weather, just varying degrees of what's in between. I'd like to experience seriou weather though, as I'm a bit of a fan. All except hot weather, that is.

fishmonkey 06.20.2006 10:23 AM

i hate the rain. its raining in ireland today and it was real sunny all last week, its a pain in the balls

Hip Priest 06.20.2006 10:24 AM

I don't like the hot weather. Does my head in.

Oh to be in England.

At least we only have to suffer the hot weather for about 2 weeks a year.

Does MY head in indeed. Not too good for my sinuses either.

Exactly. Summer seems to have ended already here - we had it last week. So all is well.

jon boy 06.20.2006 11:00 AM

summer in england lasts about four hours. i do like the rain, but only in moderation. what really gets on my tits is when its neither raining or dry, just kinda drizzle which we get a lot of here.

berlin does not rain very much at all but when it does it really does.

!@#$%! 06.20.2006 12:27 PM

I LOVE swimming when it's hot and when it's raining!

Phlegmscope 06.20.2006 12:41 PM

I wish some rain already. It's been about 79°F today here, or 26 °C.

!@#$%! 06.20.2006 12:42 PM

you unfeeling fucks

don't you see cheeto's books were in danger? and here you go on writing about your own ass cavities...

Rob Instigator 06.20.2006 01:26 PM

jesus fuck I have so many books. the books are fine, I managed to put the expensive books, the art books and such, up (those are the heaviest and sit on the bottom of my bookshelves), but my 10 or so 7 foot tall bookshelves are gonna have water damage on the bottom, which hopefully will not make them worthless. fuck I love books.

I hate flooding. there is nothing one can do but get that wet-vac out. it is horrible.

I was lcky though. people just a mile from me had 2 feet of water in their house. I live next to Hobby Airport and the entire surrounding area was so heavily flooded noone could get into the airport or out of it from around 5:00am to noon. the people working night shift had to work an extra 8 hours with half the terminals out of power.

finding nobody 06.20.2006 01:44 PM

i had a similar expireince with our hot water heater fucking up and sptting out water. nothin got damaged though. glad to hear nothin of yours got messed up to bad

!@#$%! 06.20.2006 01:56 PM

whoa, good to hear the books are safe. about the shelves, you can always prop them on cinderblocks in necessary.... best wishes man & i hope you stay dry.

Same here. Although I do think that's part of the reason I like it. If it weren't so rare I probably wouldn't like it as much. Although a couple years ago it rained a ton and I loved it.

I used to hate the sun, but I love it, too, now. So I'm usually pretty happy, regardless of the weather. Except snow. I don't like snow at all. Never lived in it, so no childhood memories to prevent me from hating everything about it. If you wear sneakers it gets in your shoes and numbs your feet. How stupid is that?

Macaulay Culkin 06.20.2006 03:16 PM

I saw that crazy rain cell going through Houston yesterday. We had some really bad weather in the midwest as well.

Who ever knew that the darkest color on a weather map was black??
It goes beyond purple.

I had no clue until yesterday.
