how did it pass us??

this is a picture of the rain (the blues and greens are light/moderate rain). the weather generally moves from west to east here. somehow all those clouds got past us with nothing more than a bit of spit and now they're east of melbourne dumping a decent little shower. at least its pleasant though. i was able to ride my bike to the train station with a nice cool breeze as long as i was moving. i could have just ridden the 7km to the bike shop. by the time i discovered riding was actually nice though i didn't feel like going back to the house to look at a map and i couldn't remember the best way to ride to the bike shop. my bike is now sitting there hopefully getting tuned up (i get a years free tune ups with my bike from the shop i bought it from so i might as well make use of them) and the rear deraileur fixed by saturday (they're flat out but the guy remembered me from a few months ago and remembered how stressed i was about getting my bike back as soon as possible so he said they'd try to get it done by friday nite instead of monday). i'm gonna go out and enjoy the clouds and the mildly warm breeze with the dog.
