on temptation, sin, and the fine art of making deadlines...

I am trying very very hard to remain focused on the Stuff Due Now, and not get distracted by Shiny!Bright!New! project that's calling my name in a voice redolent of fine chocolates and aged whiskey...

But the temptation is oh so overwhelming.


*locks S!B!N! into lead-lined box and puts key around Pandora's neck... okay, maybe not best choice...removes key and puts it around Boomer's neck, instead*

Noah, Noah, build the damn ark, already!

Since Tuesday, we've had over a foot of rain.

14.2", to be exact, in the most closest-to-us town measured.

And it's supposed to rain all weekend, too.

An official state of emergency has been declared for the entire state.


As natural disasters go, it's not much to complain about. Not when you look around, nationally and internationally.

But it ain't easy, either.
