tired, and lightning
May. 7th, 2006 08:00 pmBack from Ikea, very much an all-day trip with the drive to and from Houston. Pretty on the way, out 290, green green green and rolling with trees, cows and horses. Some of the cows had those white birds that eat parasites off of them hanging out with them, on them. What are those birds called? Can't recall.
Anyway, long day, tired.
Loft acquired, currently residing in two very heavy boxes on my floor. My friend M, who has tools and muscles, will come over tomorrow afternoon/evening to help me put it up and together, then there'll be the whole rearrangement of the space...
During last Thursday night's storm action, which featured winds of 70-80 mph, hail, thunder so loud it almost had me in the closet, and lotsa lightning, I actually saw lightning strike the loft building catty-corner to me. Jarring slam of sound and light, like the Leviathan dropped an anvil, and, zoop, I saw it hit the loft room. Very startling. Made all my hair stand on end.
