and the state told them they were stealing the water that belonged to the government. Turns out the water rights to rain falling on private property do not automatically go to the property owners, under very old laws of Utah.
True in, at least some places, California too. Water is srs bsns in deserts.
Dole markets an orange-peach-mango juice that eases a lot of the OJ acid for me
I find mango is a very good buffer, but much with the sweet. Def needs dilution.
Oy, with the politicking sara. I hope to avoid a lot of that at my place. The structure seems very simple. Or I could be being wilfully naive.
I just stopped working.
Not because I was done, but because the database I was using decided it was done for the day.
That's too late to be working, Perkins.
At least I'm in inside pants and watching tv at the same time?
Grace's giggling? Best. Thing. Ever.
really
I worked late tonight too, but mostly because I took an unexpected nap this afternoon. But then I watched my tivo`d SYTYCD, so not as late as you.
Water rights are huge issues here too of course, but you can take my rain barrels out of my cold dehydrated hands.
I went out after all. Saw a tweet from a web series producer I know asking if anyone wanted to join them so I went out. Had a very pleasant time talking to them and wasn't all self-conscious and feeling inferior as I often can be in crowds/parties. Phew. Nice to use the car to its fullest.
If you can read office politics, sarameg, I admire you even more than I already do. That is an arcane field of necromancy I have never been able to pierce.
Belatedly, Grace's giggling great. In terms of water reclamation: we have that law in Washington State, but it has been publicly proclaimed that it won't be enforced against residences. I think there is also a tendency to be reasonable in the case of non-residential buildings as well. Basically require the permit, make sure it will do no harm and grant pretty fast if it won't. (
Now I'm really curious as to whether we have that law in CA. It seems ridiculous. Having rain barrels and using that water to irrigate would actually be a step FORWARD.
