RAIN. Please. Washington DC has not had more than a trace of rain since August 7th, and yes, I've been counting the days. Now my yard crunches like Rice Krispies when I walk across what used to be a bunch of short green plants masquerading as grass.
Now even the weeds are withering while the sun is acting as if it were mid-August, not almost October. And the dog next door won't stop barking. Irrelevant, perhaps, but annoying just the same.
Please rain.
Please.
A thunderstorm does not count. What we need is an old fashioned Cat in the Hat kind of long, gray, rainy day .
Or a Singing in the Rain kind of night. The sleeping with the windows open and the curtains damp with mist kind.
Preferably....both.
There are more than a few rain dances coming up in October. Please get out and support local music rain or shine:
