I will be investing in a very nice waterproof jacket before the lacrosse tournament I am coaching in on Saturday. I'm sure I will need it
Love my LL Bean Gortex jacket and pants. Pricey, but well worth it if you are spending time in the rain.

Swapped out the rear sway bar. Rear bar required unbolting the exhaust and pulling the rear hangers off to get clearance. Wish I had Jeff's lift! My body is beat after two days of rolling around under the car.
So you did go with the rear Eibach too?
You need to improve your reading retention.

Yes, Eibach front and rear.

Rain doesn't bother me for some reason (well, other than not being able to drive the S).

I watched people running through the parking lot this weekend whilst I casually sauntered through.

Sump pump has been kicking on about every other minute. My neighbor's backyard looks like a swimming pool.

Started my woodstove yesterday and still have it burning a small fire. Helps keep the dampness out of the house...high temps have only been in high mid to high 40's here the past few days.

Same problem here
Last week when it was dry it did not need cutting
Now it's wet, looks like it will be wet fo a week and it already needs to be cut

I too do the casual walk across the parking lot, I don't mind the rain, I do miss the things I could be doing if it was dry, and f course when I'm cold and wet then the rain is no fun at all
And for me, this weekend's funny observation was the people who looked like they would be healthier if they at least walked a bit more, pulling up to the very front of the store, getting out, parking illegal, and waddling into the store, just so they stayed perfectly dry

I'll confess, I can admit it...
Yesterday when I got home at 4:30pm I turned on the heat
The furnace is set back to 60 right now, and it turned itself on this morning
WTF?
It's mid May
