Good LORD. Worst storm in 20 years they say. I believe 'em. The lightning is still blasting across the sky, rippling across like electric dragons. I saw a power transformer explode on the way home from work. The whole of the sky lit up as brightly as a neon kitchen light, I yelled a choice obscenity and a finger of lighting reached down and struck something far off the right hand side of the car, something that exploded in a huge sphere of sapphire blue light. That's when all the street lights went out. The crack of thunder was so typical of bad movies from the 1950's it wouldn't have been shocking if it had not been world endingly loud. I continued to forge rivers that used to be intersections.
Shortly before they lost power (and were subsequently captured by the empire) Dell sent an email around that told employees they should delay their departure from work until more favorable conditions arose. I took this as a hint that the traffic would be light outside of Dell, and I was right! Before you call me foolish, conditions only worsened into the night, and had I left a few minutes later getting home would have been impossible. I saw intersections I had crossed minutes before on the news at Vorpal's place as now completely flooded. Several times I thought I would be swept off the road. Waiting to leave with all the other Dell people would have only increased the danger. I did the right thing, got home, and ate a pizza. AAAND I got to use "Electric Dragon" be glad I didn't use "unfurling their tails". I still wish to use "peel of thunder" but that can wait until later on tonight.
Man, I should win the "Shut the fuck up" award. What is this, like 5 updates in one day? Christ.
Oh, Vorpal talked to Spook. Seems he's in town but doesn't want any goonery until he gets settled. That's fine with me. I'll hook up with him later and show him around town. Or attempt to have
anal sex(check Oct 21) with him, which ever strikes my fancy at the time.
Oh, and
Sign my guestbook
