...need a boat...

I'm sitting at our computer, enjoying my morning cup of coffee. It is just a bit past 9:00am, yet the lighting outside makes everything feel like 5-6:00am. The sky is a flat grey/green. A tease of rain was coming down while I was showering, and then preparing my bagel and coffee. After being on the computer for a bit, the rains came down in a BIG hurry amid lots of clapping thunder and flashes of lightning. It seems to be letting up now into just a regular heavy rain.
Man...I have to go out in it soon, and I will be parking and walking a bit of a distance. No umbrella. Damn.
