The weather had cleared a bit, the sun was out, the kids were outside wandering around.

This is Oklahoma. We’re under a tornado watch until later tonight. You don’t assume crappy weather is over until it’s really over.

Around 4 it suddenly clouded over and started raining cats and dogs.. then it started hailing. Kids were shrieking their heads off as they ran for cover. It hailed for around 15 - 20 minutes. The hail was hitting the metal fence around the pool and it sounded like an odd form of music.

It’s cleared off again but we’ll probably have another replay later.

As I said I probably shouldn’t have laughed but all that high pitched squealing and shrieking was funny.

I got up at 3:30am yesterday. I went to bed at 6am this morning. I woke up at 9 needing a bathroom break. Went back in to go back to sleep and the phone rang. It was Richard. I noticed the weather looked odd. Come to find out we’re under a thunderstorm warning and a freakin tornado watch.

Damn, now I have to stay awake.

I WON’T be waking up the kid unless one of the goddamned things is bearing down on us. I have to try to sleep when things calm down.

Fuck dark circles… by the time Richard gets home I’m going to have black holes under my eyes!!!
