Rainy Day Blues

Ever have a huge brew day planned out, just to have freak thunderstorms totally wash it out?
It can be crushingly depressing.

Actually I did get me some lemonade.
No Vodak, though.
I mean... I have it, but alcohol is my happy-time drink. When I'm down... it's not a good thing.
Tomorrow, though. I shall brew.
Oh yes.
I shall brew.

I started a brew in the rain last night - gave up, just heated the wort enough to pasteurise it then left it in the kettle overnight and did the boil today (decent weather). Seems not to have hurt it.
