Fire and Rain
Ah, nothing screams "springtime" quite like the warmth of a roaring fire in the midst of days upon days of endless rain.

And Talk About the Weather
When you've got nothing to post, you can always talk about the weather.
Total snowfall this past season (assuming, correctly I hope, that it's over): 127 inches. Lucky us!
And now we're nearing the record for rainiest April EVER (breaking a record set in 1929) in a town that's already known for gray skies and dreary weather. Lucky us!
Tonight, we have a severe thunderstorm warning that could bring strong winds and hail. Yea!!
It's either time for Tears for Fears or the Weather Girls but God bless mother nature? Not right now.

Cracker Soul
Every once in a while you score one of the best nights ever. Last night: Cracker. They played heaps o' hits including Eurotrash Girl, Low, Movie Star, Sweet Thistle Pie, Get Off This, Teen Angst, etc., and a fabulous new tune, "Turn on Tune in Drop out with Me," from their latest CD. If I had the chance, I would have run away with David Lowery right there and then. Shockingly enough, he didn't ask me to.
I, of course, picked up my girlfriend Ellen straight from work so I was wearing a black suit and heels. (Way to rock out.) Yet, at the end of the night, this guy that Priddy Mary thought was hot but looked more like a cuter version of Joey from Z Rock came up to me and said, "I'm not hitting on you but wanted you to know that you're the cutest thing -- dancing in the rain."
Seriously. For someone suffering from chronic low self-esteem, it was such an amazing compliment. Who ever you are and where ever you may be: thanks.

Rain Down on Me
Tonight: Cracker! Too bad we're having torrential downpours at the moment. I'm hoping they can still play in this mess.
This morning I heard Paranoid Android which felt totally perfect for the day.
Rain down, rain down, come on rain down on me
From a great height, from a great height, height . . .
Wow. I can't believe this song/CD is from 1997. Feels like only yesterday?! I suddenly know what it means to be living a still life from a moving vehicle.
