It’s a skill only my scratched DVD has mastered. 🆒

Now the rain stopped and I am enjoying the silence in my house because everyone has gone to the baseball game.

Birds chirping, a gentle breeze rustling the leaves in the trees, the soft whine of my harddrive.

And occasionally some strange sounding tool from the neighbor’s house, and every once in a while, jets taking off from the airport.

At the moment, just the a/c and my tinnitus (portable crickets). I have no decent sound system in the home.

But a little while ago, when the a/c just couldn’t keep up with the Houston heat, I went for a spin in the car (good a/c) and played all of the _13th Floor Elevators_ compilation CD that I bought last night.
