• We had actual weather today in Seattle. A big hailstorm with thunder and lightning and high winds. It was pretty cool.

  Knocked out the internet connection a few times, but whatcha gonna do?

  For a while I stood out on the front porch-y thing while the hail rained down, sipping coffee, watching the rosebushes bend and threaten to break. The sky was a harsh gray, and I was worried there might be a funnel cloud or tornado or something. It turns out there was, technically, a tornado to the north in Whatcom county, and it took the roof off a barn.

  It reminded me of hurricane season on the gulf coast. No doubt some dead trees got knocked down today, and the Seattle mushroom people all freaked out like it was the end of the world, but me? Ain't nothin'. I'm from the Texas Gulf coast. *pose*
