Mood down, weight up? Blame rain

[Sequoia]

The local weather report is turning into a Russian novel -- endless, dark and depressing. When a recent headline in our paper read, "Two More Weeks of Rain,'' the mood of the entire Bay Area sagged.

More rain? We can't take any more rain.

This isn't rain -- the sky has sprung a slow leak. We saw at least 22 lousy days in March -- some places saw 25 -- and April's been just as lousy.

Not only has all that rain canceled sporting events, ruined outdoor wedding plans and generally made it impossible to enjoy doing anything at all outdoors, it's turned nearly everyone cranky and irritable. I called Steve Schroeder, general manager of Harding Park Golf Course to see whether the regulars were getting grumpy.

"We don't have any grumpy golfers,'' Schroeder said.

1. I drive a scooter...

here in SF, so all this rain is EXTRA hated by me! I just can't believe how relentless the rain has been! It truly seems endless, with all day/all night downpours. Last night I saw a few hours of light right before sunset, but five minutes after I got to work this morning it literally started pouring again and hasn't stopped. If I wanted to grow mildew on my northside I'd move to Seattle!

I'm thinking I'll just kayak to work tomorrow. :cry:

2. Blame It On The Rain

So Milli Vanilli was right?

3. All the rivers and creeks I crossed looked bad

Sacramento, Russian, Eel, Cache, Sacramento again....

Lake county is half under water.

Don't anybody be shocked if we see more flooding this season.

4. The blame for gain falls mainly on the rain?
