Should I resubmit this post as a graphic novel? Something with drawings and quotes in balloon bubbles?

One inch of glorious, snow-eating rain predicted for today; local flood watch in effect until tomorrow morning.
The sooner the white stuff is all gone the better, I need to get on some dry rock.

Been raining like the dickens here. (anyone know where that expression came from? Does it rain a lot in one of his novels? Is it even spelled like that?) Hot and sunny all day, pouring rain in the afternoon. Dry rock = nada.
On the good front, project for grant is fucking hard, but a good session today produced excellent results. If we don't get the grant then we're confident this project will get accepted elsewhere.

Was hoping to get out this weekend, but it looks as if we'll need to put the final touches on the grant application this weekend. Have a friend from Alaska visiting family here this week and she wants to get out or at least to the gym. Not sure I have the time.

Had another apointment for the kiddo today.
This was to meet with the Autism services team at the local children's hospital... We spent an hour arguing about therapies.
So the cliff notes:
- I need to take him for an assessment to see if he qualifies for IBI
- There is a 3 year waiting list for IBI
- As it stands, he's too high functioning to qualify, but I should apply anyway
- If he shows ANY improvement between now and 2016, he'll be denied therapy
- This therapy is designed for children under 5
- It is highly recommended that I apply despite the fact that its completely futile.
- The assessments take 3 appointments of 2 hours each

Not climbing every once in awhile will drive a person mad, also. Handle that shit. I don't want to read about how you cut both ears off for good measure.
