We were prompted to take some favorite song titles, and present them through a specialized point of view/vocabulary. I chose some Counting Crows songs from August and Everything After: Raining in Baltimore, Perfect Blue Buildings and Round Here…presented as a weather report.
Again. Excellent writing. Your brain is so very clever. “Bal-ti-more-often-than-not” is hilarious!
Bolt … I, more often than not, (do)
You’ve done well, because I would not have guessed these were song titles. And I’m pretty sure I live a lot closer to Baltimore than you do and I was wondering how you were presuming to know their weather 🙂 because although I think we get way more rain than you, it doesn’t rain that much!
My bro and sis in law and babies live in Elkridge, MD. One year when we went to visit it rained just about the whole time, especially our “city days.” I know that’s not normal, but I happened to have my Counting Crows in my iPod players at the time, and the whole trip was a little melancholy (I don’t remember why)…so I just have this lasting impression of delightfully maudlin rain. 😉
Line upon line of headlines…
Today we had weather for ducks.
The onions and tomatoes aren’t doing to well for lack of sun.
Sorry I’m not familiar with all the references. But I liked it just because it was a fun read.
Thank You. Now, back to you De!
