It’s been dryer than a popcorn fart around here for months.
As in they literally declared a drought up here in the Pacific North West, the official home of the Mud Puddle.
It clouded up earlier today and it sprinkled a bit while I was at work.
The fucking cat was destroying the front door again a couple of minutes ago, clawing at the fucking thing wanting out, as usual. It’s either destroying the fucker from the outside wanting in or it’s destroying the inside wanting out.
Constantly.
So I got up a minute ago to let the mangy bitch out and decided that while I was up, I would step out and have a smoke.
It’s absolutely POURING rain out there right now.
A Gully Washer.
I swear I heard the front lawn come to life and start growing out of control in just the couple of minutes I was out there.
Dammit.
I was really enjoying not having to mow that sonofabitch too.
I used their declaration of drought as an excuse not to water the damn thing all Summer and let it die.
Except the Crab Grass of course.
That shit must be genetically related to cacti or something.
I’d have to say Monsoon Season has officially begun around here.
The days are very noticeably shorter already and I saw an article saying Ye Olde El Nino is back, bringing rain by the bucket load and cooler weather to boot.
It’s supposed to hang around until, they don’t fucking know, maybe next Summer.
Yay.
