Strange times are upon us

Well, yesterday was an ordinary spring day in an ordinary Texas small town with an ordinary April shower... with a couple variations on "ordinary".

For example, it was below 50 degrees Fahrenheit all day long, but strangely enough, never below freezing. (off topic--have you noticed how much I like "..."? Bad habit or just strange habit? I wonder...) :)

And there was that slight change in the precipitation itself... "ordinary April shower" might be changed to "ordinary April blizzard". It snowed all day long. And on top of all that, that was mowing day. So Andrew and I were mowing in the snow. Kind of unusual for Nacogdoches, considering we rarely get more than a couple flakes of snow at all during the entire year. Coincidence? Maybe not. If we are to believe the "experts", this unusual occurance is due to *gasp* GLOBAL WARMING!! This is just the beginning! Today snow, tomorrow... SUPERCELLS! GASP!!

I assure you, this is almost purely sarcastic musings. But I was interested by the amount of snow we got. Had it been cold enough, the snow would have stuck and we would have gotten 1-2 inches, maybe more. As it is, we got the equivalent of that much rain, because it was all melted by about noon today, even in Lufkin, where they got it heavier and longer than in Nacogdoches.

Perhaps the most interesting part of this was, as said before by F.B. (Evelyn on my links), was that the snow was lying on top of such things that you would see in Spring. The trees covered in green once again, the grass growing at an alarming rate, such that I had to mow it, the, erm, flowers (I'll let someone else deal with the descriptive term for them :D ), surely you get the idea by now? It was nothing usual.

OK, now that I typed all that up, is there anything else interesting going on... ah, yes. Older news than you are used to...

JCP finally figured out how to go North-South. Would she be so kind as to explain that for us? *ahem*

Well, as far as my debate stuff is going, its not really going. I didn't make it to regionals (kinda bummed that I haven't won anything since January), and although I may be useful as moral support to the people who did break, I'm not actually debating anymore this year. Sort of intend to next year. I have the assignment of helping the people who broke by critiquing their cases and strategies and stuff, but it won't be quite as hard core preparation as fixing my case was. But you may still see "gone to debate tourney" signs on this blog.

Nothing else that really need to be posted about, so toodles.

Edit:Ross came by this weekend for Easter break. He also brought with him one of the Mummes who was also at A&M. (friends of Mom and Dad since medical school)

And while I'm on that topic, Happy Easter. (Happy? Why happy? Why not jolly? Or joyful, or something like that? Perhaps I can start a new trend. Joyful Easter everyone! Praise God!!)

Long post...

Well, it is the first of April, so...

WHITE RABBIT!!!

Plus, its the first of April, so...

APRIL FOOLS DAY!!!

That long post promised? Its not gonna happen! I feel so jolly right now...
Alright I'm not quite as jolly anymore. Goodbye, friends, till we meet again.
