Yep, very good - we're under mandatory water restrictions.
And my beautiful garden is very thirsty and not looking too good.

4. No it isn't - where are you?
Apparently it's raining everywhere but here (Spring). We've got clear blue skies.

12. Yeah, the ice rink thawed out.
I meant in the Galleria area.

Altho, considering the type of people who shop there, in the Galleria wouldn't have been too much of a tragedy!

6. what is this rain of which you speak?
we in the upper-midwest are not familiar with such a think as rain. could you describe it? is this, perhaps, that amazing idea of water falling from the sky? we do not believe in such a thing here...

We've had rain since about noon and it just let up. For a while I couldn't see five feet out my window.

19. happy, happy rain day
All the living green plant things needed the rain. Plus that way I don't even have to water the plants. I'd given up on the grass a long time ago.

It rained last Thursday too. So maybe it's a Thursday rain thing.
