Rain and progress
Mar. 12th, 2012 09:00 pmToday's forecast called for possibly violent thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening. However, those arrived mid-morning with significant sturm und drang and a heckuva lot of water. I think we got about an inch of rain in a two hour period. Then it cleared and the sun came out in time for lunch. By late afternoon there was nothing but a lot of puddles left here, and there were tornado warnings across the lake in Michigan. Timing, folks.
Subject heading discovery for the day: "WARLORDISM" — Apparently the Library of Congress sees this as a socio-political system somewhere between feudalism and tribalism, sharing elements of both. I thought it sounded like some sort of cultish religious practice.
Oh, and the progress? Finished the requested edits on the story "Beyond Mundane Boundaries" that is slated to appear in Allasso later this spring. Mostly I was asked about moving commas around, which I didn't dispute. There were about three changes in word choice or sentence structure that we had to negotiate. I hope we have them resolved now.
Things are soggy. The sump pump under the house foundation is running about once every 45 seconds. I hope they've got it right and the next couple of days will be warm and dry.
