Here Comes the Rain Again (reprise)

Today it rained in a very heinous fashion. I caught some of it while riding to work on the bike this morning. I avoided a solid soaking, but my hair curled up. Then I saw my friend's cell-cam pic on his Facebook feed showing hail like I haven't seen in years. I managed to get back home without water on my head. The wind is a persistent adversary when biking on the trail, but the new ear buds are allowing me to rock to my phone's mp3 features. Now the trail is very surreal with the tunes in my head and the road to somewhere over there.

Taco Nite

Okay, we have at last eaten our anticipated tacos, and now we are about to fall asleep on the couches. The Family Guy is hilarious tonight. Brian just had his comedy show hijacked by the network, and now he knows how hard it is to not sell out when you have no control of your art in the first place.
On the lighter side, a shot of Jaegermeister sounds pretty good right now, wouldn't you agree?
I don't have to work until ten-thirty tomorrow, so I'm feeling entitled.

Clarification

I have just been informed that tonight is not Taco Nite. I repeat—tonight is not Taco Night. I regret any inconvenience this may have caused me.

Taco Night

Tonight is Taco Nite at the Thomas residence and it is time to start browning some beef. I wish I had something better to offer you t0 read about but this has been a slow news day. I’ll get back with some juicier tidbits later.

Hopeful

It looks like Jason may be considering renting out a room in our house. We are hopeful that he will. Even if only for a short time, it will be a tremendous relief to our current finances. This would help buy some time until I can land that second income, or even a better full time job somewhere else.

Memorial Day Morning

Today is Memorial Day and we slept in very well this morning. It is a rare occasion for Erika and I to have the same day off together. We are also coming off of a rather uneventful 12th anniversary non-celebration, but the roast that Erika made was delicious with a stir -fry twist.
Today we may be visiting with the kids, but that is up in the air for now. Eggs and cheese are in the foreseeable future.

Here Comes the Rain Again

So it is the 28th of May, yet we are all practically freezing, and the wind is blowing hard and cold. Not the weather that is typical of a Memorial Day Weekend. This is already turning out to be an odd summer. I heard somewhere that this is another 'El Nino' year. I recall the last one in the nineties was quite damp and everyone was miserable for it.
