I got a text from James this morning at 5:37AM declaring "It's pouring in Texas."
An hour later, he decides to call me to tell me he's stuck in floodwaters.
Houston, TX saw a lot of rain today as did much of Michigan.
Spring weather is definitely in our midsts! Torrential rain, windy days, beautiful sunshine -- in a continous cycle. At least this prepares us all for a wonderful May.
Anyways, I just wanted to say that I like the rain, but not too much. Not very conducive to footwer at all and my hair. LOL.
RE: Swine flu
1. Eating pork does not give you the swine flu.
2. Wash your hands and cover your mouth/nose when you cough/sneeze.
3. Antibacterial is not that great for you. One of the few things I learned as a biology major: the antibacterial completely kills all of the bacteria on your hands. This allows bacteria to come back and easily flourish--possibly even mutating.
4. Don't go to Mexico. Even if the cases aren't near places like Cancun or Cozumel. One person who has it might go to those locations and bring it there. Just avoid the country for a while. There are other nice vacation spots -- Jamaica, Hawaii, and Michigan (just kidding about MI).
5. Don't panic. Pandimonium is the worst when it comes to these situations. Stay calm.
6. Prepare yourselves -- emotionally and physically. I'd personally stock up on some food and water --just in case.
7. Be optimistic.

I beg to differ with your assumption that Michigan is a bad place to vacation. on the contrary: Michigan's number two money-maker is tourism. Much of the Midwest chooses to go up north to a cottage for their summer vacations...we have loads of state and national forests, an enormous skiing industry, no. 2 golfing industry, wineries, natural sand dunes, islands, and the most coastline (over 3,000 miles) in the lower 48 states.
Not to mention, a vacation to Michigan would be astronomically cheaper than any vacation you may choose to take to any other part of the world, let alone in the United States. Plus, you'd be doing a great thing for a struggling economy.

Believe me...I've contributed a lot to Michigan's economy! LoL.
Skiing? Wow.
OMG...I love golf!!!
mmmm....Wine.
True, Michigan would be astronomically cheaper -- they need to do a better job advertising. :) All I see are billboards for the cider mill, outlets, and Frankenmuth. LOL.
