Logic 101 - Classes now open with Professor 'Salina

This morning I awoke at 7. A bright, sunny day with a sheen of mugginess hanging heavy in the air.

'Salina was already in the living room, having been awake since 4.45, just finishing breakfast and playing happily with a phalanx of My Little Ponyies, a doll, a pair of scissors, a roll of tape, paper and some pencils.

I went in to brew coffee and fill the water filter, make the tea, arrange my brain and gird my loins for the walk I had promised this morn.

Negotiations were made on the timing of our promise (she opened with waiting until a certain level of digestion had taken place - I must tell you one day about my leftover turkey pies).

V wandered out to the scent of the coffee (while I finished the washing up - shhhh, not sure if I am more embarassed that my mother will find out OR that my one New Year's Resolution lasted only a week) and weather was discussed.

"It has rained a lot" observed 'Salina.

We all agreed it looked and felt like more.

"So, its been sunny then raining then sunny then raining?" I enquired.

"No" she countered. "It was raining then sunny then raining then sunny. Otherwise it would be raining now."

Touche.
