Bloody Rain

I find it unfortunate that the weather has not been co-operating for the last two weeks. It is entirely unbelievable. The complexity of these storms that come through and dumped massive amounts of rain are something that I may never understand, but that does not decrease the level of "go away and come again another day" I feel for them. It would be a much better situation not only for my pocketbook, but also for my easily bruised psyche if the weather would only lift for a few days, or students would take the opportunity to fly on these marginal days. I must admit, however, that I have been terribly busy with oodles of administration work that I've needed to catch up on for some time now.

In other news, that Educational Psychology that I was blogging of late last week has had a chance to steep and is now rich in antioxidants. I highly encourage you to read into EdPsych as quickly as possible. It's very interesting the way my conversational skills have morphed into a meaningless pile of banana peels. Not literally, of course. But it is interesting the way that my time has changed in the last few weeks from complex, detailed conversations about how a particular flight proceeded to more simplistic, but highly concentrated talks about what was actually accomplished with the flight, and what I noticed during the flight, etc.

That makes absolutely no sense. But it fills up page space, so when you get to this paragraph, continue reading as though I didn't just waste one and a half minutes of your valuable time. You might just find a tasty morsel of information that could serve you very well in the future, or in some alternate universe where intellectual property is freely distributed, as it belongs not to an individual, but to intellectuals. Get it?

Back to the weather. There is a cold front that is supposed to move into the area later this week and bring not only rain, but the potential for severe weather. It is moving fairly fast, so I only hope that there is not like a day in between the weather system that is in the area now and the cold front that will be moving in shortly. The likelihood of there being one or two days of nice weather in between the transit is low, but I hope that there is no such period. It would waste time. Nine inches of rain have fallen since the beginning of this month. That is entirely too much!!

Stay dry,
