Saturday, 9:20 am: There’s no surprise; the weather has changed yet again. It’s drizzling and heavily overcast. It’s hard to tell where the drizzle begins and where the clouds end. It’s one of our creepy and eerie mornings; luckily we don’t get them too often.

With the poor weather in my mind, I’ve decided it’s time for me to dig out my Three Stooges video collection and have a Jerome “Curly” Howard Day, and keep the rain outside. Last time it was Moe Day. It must be a guy thing! I kind of like mindless, pie in the face, humor. I’ve pretty much given up on cinematic sophistication, and anything with more than three syllables, and it is difficult to pronounce. Besides, life is too short to worry about such things, and they are funny guys.

In the twenty or so minutes since I’ve started writing this blog, the drizzle has become a downpour. According to my weather station it’s now indicating; “It’s Raining Cats and Dogs.” Obviously it is not a technical weather term, but it is a direct quote from my Vantage-Pro consol. Their software code-writer is probably having a good laugh.
