Day 337, Holy Wacky Weather Batman!

So I'm sitting in the nail salon, watching the sky turn black, when all of sudden I see huge bolts of lightning strike the ground....Wow. I thought for a moment I had traveled to another state or something. There were several lightning strikes, and then the fire trucks came. I wasn't sure where the strikes hit exactly, but the thunder was exceedingly loud. One of the customers in the salon got a call from a family member in Murrieta telling her that they were in the middle of a terrential downpour.

The elements are in commotion.... isn't that one of the prophesies of the last days? It definitely is one of the natural consequences of global warming. But hey,,,, global warming is just a myth, right? Isn't that what the government wants us to believe?

The lightning strikes continued after I got home, and you should have seen the circus in our house. Billy, our sweetheart of an old dog who is scared of his own shadow, came bolting into the house and turned circles in our family room....too nervous to lie down, too scared to leave the room. Mick, our neurotic and deaf dog, sat with a confused expression on his face....couldn't hear the commotion, but knew something was wrong..... And then there's the cats. What a crack up! Topaz, affectionately re-named, To-Spaz, jumped six feet and flew like a crazy cat out of the room and down the hall. She tore through the house with lightning speed. It was hysterical. Then, all the animals came together with the humans in the family room to wait out the storm. You know, they say pets reflect their owners' personalities... well, in that case, we have a house full of neurotic, paranoid, crazy people.

No comments please.

Raechel comes tomorrow.... Yippeeeee!
