with reyd reid reed:

She: "Between rain and mudslides and earthquakes...why is it that y'all live out there again?"

Me: "For the weather."

[In_The_Wind]

4. Which weather?

You've been talking about rain for what seems like forever. How long is your rainy season?

[Oeditpus Rex]

5. Not *this* long

It's usually over by mid-March. Starts in November or December, but we don't get much until February — just in time for high school and college baseball and softball. x(

Average annual rainfall is only about 18 inches.

[Dangerously Amused]

9. Psssst:

He says "eighteen inches." In guyspeak, "eighteen inches" is really nine inches.


;-)

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. Not exactly

"Nine inches" is "six inches."



If a guy says he's got 18 inches, he's talking about his woofers.



And why are we whispering?

[Dangerously Amused]

13. We are whispering because...

...we are discussing something related to s-e-x, and I am a shy and demure young lady. Easily embarrassed and all that, you know.

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. And *now* we're whispering because

the louder the bullshit, the worse it smells.

11. Sometimes that's a blessing!

Too much is still too much x( even if it's a good thing!

[In_The_Wind]

12. I guess I'll pack my raincoat.

6. "Winter"

Is usually from early November to meh... Aprilish...

It's usually cool and rainy, but typically we'll get a storm and then it will be nice for a day or two then we'll get another storm and that pattern continues all winter.

But this winter we've had 2 sunny breaks since the new year. :(

[merh]

7. Funny,

that's what I tell folks when they ask why I love it here. :rofl:

[reyd reid reed]

8. Y'know...overall...

I think that, this year at least, my weather's been better.

Truth really IS stranger than fiction. Who'da thunk it?

[Random_Australian]

15. Aaaah, rainy season. My favourite day of the year.

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. Where the hell do you live?

Tennant Creek? :shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

17. Naw, you live out there for the high property values and the traffic!

:rofl:
