Friday ...

... and oh my God it rained this morning! Lightning and thunder around 5 this morning, with rain and I think maybe a little hail (I didn't get up to look). So now it's 77 degrees and partly cloudy.

So. Need to get a couple of things at World Market. Can hear a blue jay screeching in the back yard. More later, hopefully.

Friday Evening

Watching football ... fairly nice day today, with much more temperate weather. Making chicken and rice for dinner. In the meantime, have a couple of interesting stories:

Rare bi-colored chrysanthemum blooms in Suffolk. This is really a sweet story, and the flower is just amazing.

Lutherans vote to admit non-celibate gays to the clergy. Another article is here, with some slightly different quotes. :-)

Eh, more later.
