Weirdness

I'm collecting two of each animal...

As I am typing this, there is a large yellow orb in the sky, beating down waves of light and heat upon me. The elders tell me that it's called the Sun. I wouldn't know - if I've seen it before, it was too long ago to remember. It has been raining here about every three hours for what seems like four months. The grounds around the Manor have gone beyond saturated and are on the verge of being classified as an underwater habitat. I have to scrape barnacles off of my car. It's so bad that fish are drowning here.
Our near-worthless weathermen tell me that today's unusual dry-spell may actually continue into tomorrow, (the rest of the week they are predicting more torrential downpours). So, I figure I have about a three hour window in which to finally mow the lawn and bring it's height down to something that doesn't resemble a Jurassic rain forest.
All this water also means that the mosquito population around here, which never needs any help to become a sky-blackening swarm by late June, is going to blossom into something of biblical proportions. I'm predicting a return of malaria to the DC area no later than the 4th of July. The threat is serious enough that I am considering, ((shudder)), foregoing bourbon in favor of gin to ward off the plague. It's a sacrifice, I know. But one's health is important.
