Wet

Around midnight on Friday, thunder crashed and the heavens opened. It rained off and on all day Saturday, forcing Calista's birthday inside our house. Imagine 60-plus people, kids and adults, crammed into a space that'd be cramped with half that many. Sunday it rained off and on all day. Today is Monday, and the downpour has really started. Calista's school was cancelled (why build a school with four roads leading to it, when all four roads have low water crossings?). We've sent out media notices that Texas State University is shutting down at 3 p.m. because of rising waters. Not that this does me any good--I-35 between here and New Braunfels has water over the road, and is closed. Which means I can't get home as of now. I might be putting in some long hours tonight. Joy.
