In the 12 springs I’ve lived in the Bay Area I can’t recall it raining more than a trace amount as late in the spring as May, yet tonight we’re having our second substantial shower of the month. On May 17! And Debbi says it was showing for most of the day up where she works, closer to San Francisco! Bizarre!
Not that I mind that much, since I like the rain, but hopefully it won’t interfere with my biking to work tomorrow morning.
As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been too busy lately to post much other than my usual comic book entries. We did get out to do a few things this weekend, though, notably the A La Carte and Art festival downtown on Saturday (otherwise known as “the small one”, as distinguished from “the big one” at the end of the summer), for which our friends Lisa, Michel and their daughter Isabella joined us.
I also downloaded the game store Steam, specifically so I could play Portal (free through May 24!), which is at least as much fun as I’d always suspected. A 3.8 Gb download is a bit much for my wimpy little DSL connection, though.
But that’s about it. The rest of the month will also keep me pretty busy, but hopefully things will quiet down come June.
Maybe it’ll stop raining by then, too.
Well, it’s now Tuesday morning, and no bike ride to work because it’s still raining out! Gah!
