Give Me Rain!!!!!

We waited. And we waited. My friends and I on campus that prefer gloomy wet weather over bright sunny days. It kept wanting to accommodate us but in the end kept failing us. Morning would start off promising and than the freaking sun would break through the clouds. And it was GROSS outside. Wednesday morning I stepped out of my car and my glasses immediately fogged up. Oppressive humidity and no rain. We were in agreement that it was unfair. And then evening rolled around and I heard thunder from my back patio. It sprinkled. It smelt great. I desired much more. I can listen to thunder all night. I was happy. Unfortunately it didn’t last long enough and the heat returned with the humidity. But then it cooled down and the thunder returned. How many rounds would we be getting? Week ain’t over yet.

So it sprinkled all night. We did get precipitation. Woke up and finally a downpour. The temp was in the 50s. I was grateful. It was my kind of day. It rained and rained. Our crocodile was finally set loose once again. He couldn’t have been happier. It rained all day.

Pink super moon. I wish I could get a decent picture. The actual night of we had clouds. Of course we did. Give us clouds at night after a bright and sunny day. Rude. I did manage a not so decent picture the next clear night.

Finally I got the vaccine. The first run. After 2 failed attempts. First attempt was the same week I caught the virus. The second was too soon afterwards. The first shot is finally down. No side effects. Slight soreness. The lady giving me the shot was a real peach. She asked what arm? I said I heard it’s best in the dominate so it’s worked out sooner. She rolled her f***ing eyes out of her head. When eyes are the only expressions we have due to mask, I don’t recommend doing that. At least not to strangers. I’ve never had that from someone I don’t know. At least that I realize. She might as well have replied “dumb s***, it doesn’t f***ing matter”. I replied, whichever are you are more comfortable with. She paused and sighed and said “which are do you want it in”. Okay. Someone is tired of this. Give it to my right. The dominate. What do I care or know. Great disposition.

Friday finally rolled around. It felt like an extra week. I don’t know why it was so long. I got my burrito. Burrito Friday’s was something I started way back in August as a welcome back on campus to my friends. Somehow it became a rotational thing where someone buys a burrito every Friday. I like it. On my days to buy maybe I don’t. I have had more burritos in the last school year than probably the last 2 years. I really only treated myself on a few occasions. This Friday I got trapped by the Dean and wasn’t in my office until about 8:30. Man likes to chat and it’s always a good time. I never need lunch on burrito days.

The week sure did end on a much higher note. 60 degrees and overcast with rain. What more can a man ask for. Cheers!!!
