Don't know what I said then

When I drove Marc home tonight it was raining hard and the streets were starting to flood. The drains are clogged with fallen leaves, I guess. I like driving through water. SPLSSSSSSSSCCH. Satisfying.

We rented Ultimate Spiderman, a game based on the comic. Not as fun as the water driving, I'd say, but Marc liked it and managed to figure out how to make Spiderman get where he needed to go while gracefully disarming thugs. My Spidey got hurt a lot and mainly jogged from street to street, getting in the way of cabs.

Marc gets me to watch a lot of movies that I wouldn't know about otherwise. Tonight he brought over Terms of Endearment, an emotional 1983-ish movie about women. Typical. I ate Halloween candy through the entire thing, which didn't keep me from finding the sad parts very sad. It's a movie I wouldn't want to watch if I was feeling wimp-like. But good.

Now I'm tired. Look what you've done.

That was some crazy rain. Sometimes, when it rains really hard, I imagine that my skylight will break.

As far as I can remember, I have yet to play a really decent superhero videogame. Somebody should do something about that.

Rain sounds nice, esp. with car involved. Splissssh indeed. Rain in Montreal isn't so nearly as nice as Vancouver rain. Which has a homey quality to it, rather than a sucky quality.

I like Italian rain as much as I like Vancouver rain. They are my preferred rains.
