rain rain and more rain

it quit raining this morning, but it's supposed to come back sometime in the afternoon and do the wet thing. (what??? It's going to RAIN??? AGAIN???? I'm like SOOO in shock here!)

our poor camping trip has been utterly undermined by water, courtesy of an all-too-predictable blast from mother nature, but we're gonna go back this evening just to hang out and cook dinner over a fire (as city folk, we don't get to do stuff like that much). it's gonna get down to 40 tonight, so we're just gonna come home instead of trying to increase our patronage at medical clinics. (everytime I set foot in a medical establishment it's as if I'm forfeiting 2 days of pay. can i afford to do this regularly? no.)

what a thoroughly discouraging weekend. the one 3 day holiday i'm gonna get ALL YEAR and i might as well be at work. figures.
