Cruel Country

It's a cruel cruel weather world here in Indiana. Sure, yesterday was absolutely gorgeous with 70 degree weather in February! Sure, you just want to go outside and roll around frisking in the sunbathed grass. But can you enjoy it? NO!

Because in Indiana you get PUNISHED for enjoying the weather. The more you enjoy the winter warmth, the more you are guaranteed house-smashing tornadoes the next day. And then you can't really revel in the nice weather at all, because you always have these horrible visions flitting around in your head of tomorrow, ruining the lovely today.

Today is tomorrow. We woke up to window-rattling thunder and torrential rain at 5:30 this morning. Our house was shaking. And I've lost my weather radio. UH OH! I'm going to go look under the couch.

ok...what i want to know is why when the windows are shaking and the storm is threatening to blow your roof off, you are blogging about it and not looking for your radio or finding a safe corner to huddle in!???? hope your roof is still there...and you found the radio!
