Exactly what I told my neighbor. Only I said it yesterday. (Or, according to this post, I guess I must have said it today. No wait, now I'm confused. Maybe I said it two days ago?)
Today I thought, what if the weather never changes from this? We'll always have plenty of water, and our plants will thrive, but we'll need lots of vitamin D and suicide prevention.
I just went to check and make sure a post I set to run today had posted---it hadn't. oops.
I spent many a day standing like Little Bit, staring out the window at the rain, wondering if it was EVER going to stop? I particularly remember watching wave after wave of rain come down the street and the gutters running over their banks. Then again, I do remember being a bit older and going out in the rain to play anyway and trying to throw around a REALLY soaked NERF football...throwing is hard, catching is a soaking experience!
I saw all those double rainbow pics posted to Twitter while it was still pouring over here. Who would have thought mother nature would favor the westside over the San Gabriel Valley?
In December of 2007, after many years on the west side of Los Angeles (and at least a third of those years spent stuck in traffic on Pico Boulevard) my family settled into a happy little house in South Pasadena. This daily blog covered almost 5 years as I put down roots in my new home town -- and almost 5 more as I settled in and became a South Pas old-timer. Here it is...my time capsule of South Pasadena.

Oops, this post for Wednesday jumped the gun and appeared before it was supposed to. Blame it on the storm.
Even your blog is going stir crazy! =)

A GOOD TIME TO LET IT ALL OUT
Laurie: Label: Gus's BBQ? ;-)
Every day I watch the national weather, hoping to hear something different for Southern California. They are blaming it on the "Pineapple Express."
If you are unfamiliar with this phenomenon, READ THIS
Who would have thought it was Hawaii's fault?
Love your mood. Something about a somber child gazing out a window....
Little Bit woke up this morning, looked out the window and said, "I think South Pasadena is under a spell."
When is this going to stop?!
Oh, Earl, this shot is actually from Gus's. We braved the weather to get out for lunch yesterday and this was taken in the front of the restaurant.
Good eye Mr E!!! Since it's the Pineapple Express, are you all wearing your Tommy Bahama's???
(some of my posts have done that recently too! Or not posted at all)
Who said rain dances don't work.

Jim has been out front in what we sometimes call the moat, pumping water around.
He has reported seeing bubbles come up from a hole next to the front porch. Then a very wet skunk ran out.
So, everyone in LA saw double rainbows in the last half hour and it's still dark and raining in South Pas. Grrrr.....
