Rain Rain Grow Away

I don't know if I am more bored with the rain around here, or more bored with making small talk about the rain. But I'll add my two cents (or more appropriately, offer two sides of a rainy coin).

Heads: All this rain is cool because the crop circle of dirt that we found when the snow melted is now filling in completely with grass. I'd like to say it was my expert application of seed and fertilizer, but I know better than that.
