Revelations

Last summer, it was the record heatwave and draught.

This summer it's record rainfall (yesterday most of England got a month's rainfall in one day) and flooding, and it's not stopping any time soon. The depression and blues over the cold, dark dampness is overwhelming.

What's next? Locusts?

1 Don't give anybody any ideas, Heleen! But who knows, this is getting very weird..

2 Whoops, read that comment of mine and realized it could be misconstrued. I meant, don't be putting ideas into any horsemans' heads.

3 With record rainfall, I think the next plague might be frogs.

4 We have the opposite problem here. With temps in the 90s, little rain, and the grass dying already, I can't imagine what it's going to be like come August.

5 Good gracious, I think your Catholic background is peeking out... Over here we've had a bit of rain too. Huge thunderstorms, lots of tornados. Freaking_me_out. I'm going to install a bomb shelter in my basement, I think. ;0)

6 Okay. If you get locusts, call Linda Blair as soon as possible. She's a good locust and can wave her arm the right way so that they calm down and go their merry way out of your space. But don't go mentioning Bazouzou--that mo'fucka ain't nothing but trouble. (Here's hoping you've seen The Excorcist 2!)

7 Oh Helen, that really sucks. I feel for you. I have literally gone bat-shit crazy during periods of no sun/rain. Why I continue to live in Michigan is beyond me. Oh yeah-if I wait five minutes the weather will change. You haven't seen four dudes on horses have you?

8 That sucks. Seems like it's always one way or the other, there's no in between. We have the drought going on right now.

9 Send it over here; we are having a drought and it has been 90+ everyday for at least 2 weeks.

10 maybe you shouldn't say that so loud...

11 Nah, it won't be locusts, because they drown in constant rain. You need a particular set of weather conditions to get a lot of grasshoppers, and a lot of grasshoppers to get locusts. Incidentally, plowing fields tends to kill off large numbers of grasshoppers, which is why you don't hear about plagues of locusts as much as you did in, say, the time of the Little House On the Prairie books. Frogs, though, are a distinct possibility.

12 It's been raining like crazy in Texas too. Dallas is having all kinds of flooding problems. It's humid as mother fucking hell. I'm seriously putting my deodorant to a test.

13 "What's next? Locusts?" Baby Caa-Caa and 2AM feedings?

Posted by: LarryConley at June 27, 2007 03:24 AM (ZvN01)

14 I'd take locusts over baby caa-caa. But right now I'd just be glad to get the baby. The Super-model is 2 days into overtime. She was due on Monday. Just a typical Solomon: Angel1 was 12 days late, and Angel2 was 3 days late. Angel3/Devil1 (yet to be determined) is following in his sisters' footsteps. At least we have cell phones now. When Angel1 & 2 were born 10 & 12 years ago, I didn't even have a pager. We were on red alert for nearly 4 weeks with Angel1 & 2.5 weeks with Angel2. That's annoying for everyone...except the baby.
