Rain Rain Come Again... Today!

So, the stress and frustrations that accumulated into the previous post are still un-quelled, but am still working on that.

The good news from today is we actually got some rain. Sort of. There were a few times today where a little perspiration fell from the sky, but I'm not sure it qualifies as rain though. Just enough to get your windshield damp then dry up really fast to leave it all splotchy. But, it's at least a start, now if we could just get a bit more the plants won't be drying up.

Had another "realistic" dream last night. I use "realistic" in that manner because in what would be referred to as realistic dreams they're are story lines that could happen to someone in real life. there are no weird subconscious connections like purple skies or people with elephant noses in these; they are as though I am awake in a different time.

In this one I dreamt I was driving in the woods somewhere in Appalachia, and came upon a long, old, unpainted barn in a clearing. I was still driving my truck, and there was snow just beginning to fall. There were two cowboys standing in the clearing, their trucks, and one had a horse on a lead rope. I parked and opened the barn door to a long alley of stalls and tack rooms. The horses huffed in their stalls, one of the cowboys followed me, and began work as a farrier shoeing the horses. I went up a long flight of stairs to a small apartment over the barn where i changed clothes then looked out the window. The exterior was brighter than it was before and my mother was taking bags out of a taxi. I think this may be because mom was so far away on mother's day. Can't really explain the farrier, cowboy, snow, horses, barn, woods, clearing, or old truck.

Giddy-up,

Guaca - what now?

Okay darlings,

Another day goes by, and not much has happened. The news keeps talking about all this severe weather around the southern plains, but aren't I sitting on the southern plains down here in almost-south Texas? And, all we've ha since February is hot and dry. Now, I'm not complaining about not having tornadoes, floods, and all the other stuff going on. I'm not complaining about sunshine and warmth either, but you flooded guys could at least share a little water. Right?

It was so dry and hot today that the breeze blowing across the parking lot at work actually made it feel hotter than when the air was still. How does that make sense?

In addition: I tried the most bad idea of bad ever today. Okay, so I'm a food adventurer, and I will try anything new I haven't seen, and I tried this, but what was I - and the inventor of this delicacy thinking. Guacolate. Guacamole balls, dipped in chocolate with a hard candy shell. Think of a peanut m&m, but instead of a peanut it is a glob of guacamole. Exactly. Bad idea.

Washing mouth out with shrimp,
Maddie
