It's gonna RAIN!

... well maybe it's going to rain, well maybe here but not there, well really we have no idea.

I have to say it's been a frustrating few days looking out my window in the morning with the weather man in my ear trying to guess if a scooter commute is going to leave me soaked.
I feel like it'd be actually more satisfying or at least less frustrating if it would just down pour and remove all doubt that the decision to truck it was the correct one. But this drizzle for 10 minutes here and 5 minutes there crap is enough to drive you crazy, and been just enough to keep me in the truck yesterday, today, and most likely tomorrow.

OK now i KNOW the rain gods are screwing with me...

OK so Wednesday's little 3 hour rain fiasco was followed up on Thursday. I got up and watched the weather forecast as usual, Good-O'le-Marty-Bass-'der-hon tells me that Thursday will be like Wednesday only the rain won't come until more like 5 of after, giving my adequate time to scoot home. So given that I take the weatherman's advice with a grain of salt anyway I decide to brave the ride.

At 4pm (quiting time) the clouds are back, but not nearly as threatening as the day before. So i take off for home, being very mindful of the skies above me. Once again I make it about half way home and as I am sitting at a traffic light, here comes the drizzle. So it's not too bad and I decide I am going to push through unless it gets ridiculous again. As I turn up my street the Gods decide to crank things up and here comes the downpour. I race down the street, get to the house, get the scooter in its covered area, get it locked up, get all my stuff out, and when I turn around the sun is out. Literally in the 5 minutes it took me to get into my yard and get the scooter put away it went from a cloudy downpour to bright and sunny. I was left to laugh at myself as I couldn't shake the feeling of a personal cosmic f-you from the rain gods.
