May. 14th, 2005 04:48 pmRain, as my poem a few days ago indicated, does not exist.
It rained several times last week - or, at least, it did according to those people who stand in front of maps and say: "This is what it will do" Imagine, for a moment, if other careers were allowed the same range of accuracy: "Uh, yeah. Well, this program may calculate daily attendance. It has a chance of determining what the average daily attendance value will be. It might actually be able to tell if a student had an excused absence or an unexcused one. However, when you run it next week, it will most likely take twice as long, without actually doing anything."
Today, it is a downpour, thunderstorms. In other words, it's sunny and warm, with no wind to move things around.
Given that it was raining so hard, we planted an herb (mostly) and vegetable (partially) garden today. Rachel chose locations, all along the top of the driveway. We tilled the very dry soil, removed rocks, and added in some moist topsoil. We will have - should any of these mostly two year old seed packets decide to produce - chives (three servings, as it were), garlic chives, sweet basil, *Italian* sweet basil, lemon basil, chervil, oregano, scallions, peppers, mustard, squash, gourds, and watermelon, with a backdrop of corn.
