Monday, December 14, 2009. The Rain Gets Really Irritating. A stationary front lived up to its name, and rain fell all day long. Parts of the city were flooded. Mindy, my radio producer, told me later that her Chalmette home had water nearly to its steps, and a lot of cars were flooded on her street. The city would have two and a half inches before this day was out, bringing the running total of the last three days to eight inches of rain. I am very glad I invested in the equipment for doing my show from home.
Unfortunately, Mary Ann had to make the drive into town. She didn't feel good about Mary Leigh's driving the Causeway in this. I wondered why they went in at all. Today is a reading day, in advance of mid-term exams. But Mary Leigh said that she's going to be in the nativity show later in the week, and there was a rehearsal. I wish I'd known about this. I would have rescheduled the Eat Club dinner for another night. Now I can't see the play.
I can't remember what I ate today, or even whether I did. That's funny.
