I will start today's post with the best possible news. It rained here all day. Like actual water from the sky rain. It was amazing. Due to the fact that we no longer have sprinklers and our neighbors pool is still a huge ditch, rain is the best possibly scenario for our pitiful lawn. We have been feeling like we live in Phoenix with the lack of rain here lately, so today was a blessing. This front has brought much lower temps, which should stay around all week, so I am loving the weather in general. It feels like I need a jacket when it dips down to 85. HA! :-)
I spent 4 hours on Sunday finishing the painting in the office. I still can't believe how much work painting our small office turned out to be. I chose a very deep green and it simply took a lot of work to get such a dark color to look nice while doing things on my own. Jer watched Colin so that I could get it knocked out. I think the color turned out beautiful and now I am trying to arrange a photo wall dedicated to aviation. I also put together a large mural type frame of lots of Jer's photographs from his aircraft carrier from his Navy days. That is going to look great hanging on the wall! I wish we had the extra funds for new office furniture, but I think the fresh walls at least spruced up our somewhat boring glass desk.
I don't ever touch on news in my blog (I should...it would make for interesting future reading!), but I decided that I needed to add one little tidbit. John Edwards is a huge asshole. After reading all the news articles on his affair, I told Jer that I was going to post an entry here titled simply, "John Edwards Is A Douche". Jer howled with laughter and told me that I should go one step further and add a picture of a bottle of douche for the body of the post. We got a huge laugh out of that one. This whole thing simply boggles my mind, especially the involvement of Fred Baron. Unbelievable. And this tool wanted to be President of The United States. Lovely.
Rain, office paint, and John Edwards. What a random post! :-)

It's amazing how the whole state of Texas gets rain except here in Austin! Ugh. It always looks like it will rain, but nothing happens.
Yes, I agree that Edwards is a douche bag whick is disappointing to me because (a) I've always like his wife, and (b) I have a well-documented history of liking Southern trial lawyers. :) But it's on both sides of the aisle. I think McCain is a douche bag for what he did to his first wife.
