There's something 'bout the way the street looks when it's just rained

Taylor Swift was really good last night - the concert as a whole was a little more theatrical than I'm used to (and reminded me a little of the Delta Goodrem live DVDs I've got in that way) but she is definitely a great performer and every song's story was acted out on the stage very well. She opened with "You Belong With Me" and finished with "Should Have Said No" and did a nice mixture ...

The Big Move

... we wanted to throw out and hopped into the car. Left the keys in the landlord's mailslot since by that time, he had left his office. Our travel time was actually not too bad even though it rained along the way and we got to Delaware before the movers. Delivery was postponed to Tuesday morning because of the rain. Again, they were a little late because they said 8am but arrived a bit after 9am. ...

My First Transformers Fic

... injured and panicked Decepticon troops poured out, all trace of military discipline gone as they tried to flee as far as possible from the further wave of explosions that followed and debris that rained down. ‘It’s a raid!’ Someone shouted ‘orbital bombers! The Autobots have orbital bombers!’ ‘We must retreat!’ Another cried ‘we’re doomed!’ Something flashed overhead and the sonic book that...

... the tracks. Voices of night filled darkness, and as the sweat burned my eyes the last taillights faded off into the distance. I stopped for a second, looked down and my torn feet from the splintered, soggy path. It had always been a tradition to run barefoot after it rained. As the flooded river cried and my toes stained the pavement I stared up at the world and thought, "You are beautiful."

The Million-Dollar Sue, Chapter 1, Part 1

... on this inconsequential town more than any other place in the United States of America. Snape: It rains on one very small town more than the rest of the entire United States? If she had written that it rained more in the state of Washington than the rest of the US, I might have bought it, but one town? No. It was from this town and its gloomy, omnipresent shade that my mother escaped with me ...

FICLET; What we're searching for

...speaks, his voice is soft and his eyes are distant, as if looking at something far away. “The rainbow.” Changmin peers out at the cityscape again, just to be sure. “But it hasn’t even rained yet.” No matter where he looks, he doesn’t see a rainbow—just clouds, skyscrapers, and varying shades of gray. “There will be one, though,” Jaejoong says and straightens up, finally turning to face Changmin...

Having previously been there and seen the new look in person, I laughed so hard at that! Weather on the drive back has been pretty good on average. Cloudy but no rain yesterday, and today I got heavily rained on, but not for long. Next stop: Denton, TX.

I can't think of a witty title for the zoo.

... from 2009. These are old shots from 2006; they no longer have meerkats for some strange reason. The baby meerkat was probably the highlight of that day. And onto the new ones: It had rained; otters were out first, making huge noise for people staring at them eating Twisties. Then on to the white tigers, and I'm still annoyed at the bloke who threw himself in, provoked them ...
