It was show time at our house last night. The performance
began right after midnight. A storm blew in and with it came thunder and
lighting. It was amazing as I had not witnessed thunder and lightning happen exactly
in the same instant since I moved from Texas.
The typical lighting storm has a flash of lighting, then you can count
the seconds until the thunder is heard. Last
night was immediate and super loud, meaning the storm was right on top of us, happening
right outside the bedroom window.
The old statement about tornados being attracted to trailer
parks and lightening being attracted to golf courses must be true. Although,
since moving into a home next to a golf course I have haven’t seen lighting
strike the course, or any of the endless
idiots that like to continue to golf and afternoon storms drift in, I believe
it a matter of time. Last night the lightening tried its best.
The loud booming prompted the dog to have flashbacks to his
time in Texas as well, as he quickly army crawled from the foot of the bed to
under our pillows and, if his plan would of succeeded spent the remains of the
night under my head. The cat however, took the thunder booms to be some sort of
a starting pistol and the crazy was on. This
culminated in her running in place as she used a stack of paperwork, neatly sorted and stacked upon the dresser,
as a treadmill. A flurry of papers quickly covered the floor. The next act was
for kitty to salsa dance on the scattered paper. Getting out of bed this
morning, I was treated with all of Kitties playtime handiwork.
Today I’ll find out whether they have invented dog and cat
ear plugs.
