from the tropical depression that was in the gulf. but it only lasted, on and off, 20 minutes at the most.

I just stood outside my front door and sort of wept to myself as I watched it.

I find myself, closing the blinds and putting on my headphones and listening to the sounds of a thunderstorm.

I think my wife and I are going to move soon. we have had it here in Texas. The heat is just too much, especially now as we get older.
