I got to the office this morning and found about 1/2 inch of water on
the floor, the rest had found its way through the cracks and slowly sunk
into the sand out back. There was a coffee cup sitting on top of the fridge
that was full to the brim with rain water which gives some idea of how much
rain we got last night, a lot! Thanks to something called shifting baselines
I wasn't disturbed at all, it is nothing compared to the morning after
the hurricane. Actually it did a nice job of washing everything off,
have you ever wanted to take a garden hose to the inside of your house and
give it a really good cleaning? That's what I got and it did a good job.
Despite my having swept the office at least 5 times this past week there was
still sand on and in everything. Have you ever heard of the statistic that says
" there are more suns in the universe than all of the grains of sand on all the
beaches and deserts of the world" well I swept up a couple galaxies this past week.
I don't mean to make light of something that was tragic on tragic for a
lot of people, but that is what the locals do so maybe its rubbing off.
