About time y'all got some of our infernal precipitation. It rains here pretty much every day. Our house gets hammered about every 3 days because we're not too far from downtown and Gulf moisture combined with superheated concrete canyon air makes for a mess. We finally coughed up about $3K this year to put drains in the back yard since we were tired of it always being half underwater because of everyone around us building giant houses that take up all the former permeable yard.

It's gotten to the point where I really hate rain, and I used to love it. But we don't get normal summer showers - it's either no rain at all or psycho killer clown rain that tries to get in the house like a drunk ex.

I hope it sticks around for a while. Like I said in that other thread, we've been pretty crunchy over here.

We're getting rain today. I wonder if I live close to Nuri than I thought.

Not as close as Bernie.

Fiero · « **Reply #4 on:** Sep 10, 2009, 07:47:44 PM »

But closer than Lord Zed.

Well yeah. He lives on the fucking Moon.

Where did you think I lived?

Our rain looks like it's drying up. Boo-hoo.

In Texas but not close to Dallas but maybe closer than I thought.

What? Did you just ask me a riddle? Is the answer "man"?

I hear you folks are getting the rain up there. Send it back down please.

Fiero · « **Reply #9 on:** Sep 14, 2009, 08:40:14 PM »

I see, so that would indicate you are in some manner "south."

I hope your not in Houston. I never did like Houston. And if you do, well, at least I was honest.

I live in a cardboard hut by the Alamo at the precise spot where Ozzy took a leak. Bernie's in Houston.

Fiero · « **Reply #11 on:** Sep 14, 2009, 09:34:41 PM »

Poor Bernie.

I like San Antonio. Keep the Alamo from going away, please.

B E C K · « **Reply #12 on:** Sep 14, 2009, 10:00:43 PM »

Oh, we will. That mall next door won't let it go anywhere.

Here's the latest reason for me to loathe Houston:

Another gray cloudy day. the weather prediction has been the same every day going on nine weeks now - "chance of rain/thundershowers". Guess I should be on the lookout for Twilight vampires to move here from Washington State.

Fiero · « **Reply #14 on:** Sep 15, 2009, 03:39:20 PM »

That fucking blows. Now I do loathe Houston even more than I did. And I actually didn't have a rational reason before.

B E C K · « **Reply #15 on:** Sep 15, 2009, 05:35:18 PM »

Mail the water to me.

Fiero · « **Reply #16 on:** Sep 15, 2009, 05:38:40 PM »

This is a silly idea.

I like it.

Rama · « **Reply #17 on:** Sep 15, 2009, 10:33:55 PM »

You can have ours. It rained here again today. Seems like it's been raining all summer.

Bernie AKA · « **Reply #18 on:** Sep 16, 2009, 01:34:33 PM »

There's been a strange golden glowing sphere in the sky all morning that seems vaguely familiar. The clouds are gathering, trying to smother it.

This place?

Bernie AKA · « **Reply #20 on:** Sep 17, 2009, 08:55:53 AM »

I've seen this place more in the past two months than the sun.

I'll send my rain to San Antonio & Brownsville.

I'm happy today. Humidity is low and it's getting cooler; lovely blue sky. Bring on autumn!

I'm quite happy to keep the rain in Dallas, personally.

We want rain today. Maybe go outside and blow really hard, and a cloud will stray over here.

No.

Fuck you! We were spat on. SPAT ON. Boo. There's clouds with drops for the middle of the week, so we'll see how that goes.

Fiero · « **Reply #26 on:** Sep 21, 2009, 01:14:27 AM »

I have that for the middle of the week, too! Excited!

Rama · « **Reply #27 on:** Sep 21, 2009, 01:31:21 AM »

Should I even mention that it rained here again today?

No..that would be insult to injury, so I won't mention it.

B E C K · « **Reply #28 on:** Sep 21, 2009, 10:19:31 PM »

Go outside and blow the clouds down here, damn you! It's like a Genki Dama, it won't beat Buu if everyone doesn't fucking help!

Fiero · « **Reply #29 on:** Sep 21, 2009, 10:37:47 PM »

There are giant destructive clouds over my head right now.
