Rain is beginning now and will continue sporadically for a couple days. Naturally, today is the day our new battery powered mower arrived. This saves me from having to dash around after it until later in the week. I have found that with a full squeeze of the self-propelling control bar, it proceeds quite briskly, almost alarmingly so.
Raindrops on the window AC woke me up at 5:30 this morning. Rain is a lot quieter than a nail gun, but it was right at the bedroom window. I usually wake up about then anyway with a full bladder. Oh well. I'll take an allergy pill now to unstuff my nose. Mushroom season is upon us.
I like waking to rain, not so much to hammering on the roof. Ragweed is running amok and antihistamines are necessary. We have another week of FL in the 90sF with humidity but next week we “might” be in the 70s. Come on autumn. 🍂
I went out for a while. It’s like the rain forest out there, 90sF with 89% humidity. I know I wouldn’t make it in a tropical climate. The humidity would kill me before the poisonous frogs. 🐸
'm thinking after these thunderstorms and warm temps that Scotland has moved to the tropics along with it's insects! Not seen any poisonous frogs though! Just flickering lights.

I had expected the cheesecake to be restng elegantly on a fine dessert plate rather than dangling like a cat toy from a stick and string. I will say that the mental image of the Mrs-A-to-be teasing you like a kitten brings a very wry grin to my phizog, @Simon J Ashcroft.
I'm a little grumpy most days, Shonie. Or, as Mrs A puts it, I'm a grumpy little [insert desired expletive]. How else is a man to get some pleasure in life?
Auto-rectal-cranial inversion is a variant requiring juxtaposition of the head and arse of only one individual. It is characterized by being deeply self-centered while completely self-unaware.
If he could be enclosed with a spherical mirror he might scare the hell out of himself. May he reflect upon the terror he has wrought and perish in a torrent of irony and self pity.

•Nice. That mower will make your life easier.
Our guys mowed today as the roofers have kept them out. I’m always grateful when they show up and I don’t have to do it.

Female predators of other species may use pheromones that smell like chocolate cheesecake or bananagarum to achieve a similar goal.
