magic toes and minivans

last night there was a thunderstorm. my window was half open, and i was lying in bed with my toes were a few inches from the screen. (a tree shades the window from any uninvited raindrop infiltration, so i can enjoy the stormy breeze while staying quite dry.) every time i saw lightning brighten the sky, i had this odd sensation that my toes would be struck by a bolt of electricity. just my toes.

mental picture: glowing electric neon toes.

i like the feeling in my heart when i hear an unexpected crack of thunder.




i'm going to covenant tomorrow!

minivan + seven people + luggage + twelve hours.
we're gonna have some serious bonding going on.

(i don't mind! i'm really excited about the whole thing.)

Wasn't it so much fun last night to have an actual storm!!! It's been ages and ages...My head was at my window and I did think I should probably move it away from the screen so it wouldn't get struck; but then your father's head would have gotten struck instead since I was NOT willing to close the window. So, since I love him and didn't want him to get struck I stayed put with my chin in hands...watching...with a dumb grin on my face...so we would both get struck together if such a thing were to happen. Just think...we'd have both had neon glowing heads...and you'd be an orphan:(
