More of that frickin' wet stuff, Part III
And somehow, conveniently, our local car wash has started offering Rain-X as a selection to spray on your car. I'm into them for about $1.25 a week, lately.I suspect foul play....

I never trust air I can't drink.
At least our rain isn't quite as caustic as Houston's is. I've seen PVC rust there. BTW, thanks for reminding me- I need to pick up more Rain-X while I'm at lunch, not that I can find a dry spot to cover me while I re-apply it. Truly, Rain-X is one of Man's Miracle Products. I swear, you could waterproof a hole in the water with it.

Rabbit, you really can waterproof a hole in the water with Rain-X--they put that stuff on submarine periscopes. My husband taught me to love it early on in our relationship. I need to pick some up as well, the rain here is usually that maddening amount that makes the wipers squeak even on the lowest setting, but is too much to handle without 'em.
I see some brightness outside right now that just might be sunlight. Newspaper says we got 6.5 inches of rain locally last month.
We Texans will talk about the weather all week long, won't we.
Sorry about that.
It's just that it affects my job.
It affects my commute.
It affects my house sale.
It will affect my move.
We got over 10" here last month, which is about 1/3 of our yearly amount, and last Monday saw 3.5" in a day.
I *know* it's boring to talk about the weather. But I'm not; I'm bitching about the weather, see? Eh?
I'm sorry, I wasn't meaning to be rude. I think I've commented on a lot of your weather posts. It's crazy this year, or maybe it's just that I've been out of the state for so long I'm not used to it anymore. I honestly don't know the last time (that I was living here anyway) that we'd come all the way to July without a single 100-degree day. (The heat index has gotten up there a couple of times, but the highest it's gotten has been 94.)
It's not bitching to talk about rain. We've had more this past month than we had all last year (almost)around here.
We've not gotten over the novelty factor yet.
Regards,
Rabbit.
