This just in: it is raining outside.

I’ve been waiting for the first warm rain of the year – the kind of rain that smells so fresh and is just nice enough that you don’t mind standing outside in it – but I don’t think this is it. I do think this is the rain that’s going to bring a little more green into the dull grass around these parts. With a little luck, by the time this rain is done (which, according to weather forecasts could be sometime next month) we’ll all be seeing green.
