So I was a little late for work this morning

[giza]

Bad news: I couldn't fall asleep until 4 AM last night. Good news: I slept like a rock. No unpleasant dreams for the first time in about a week.

In the morning, I was woken up for a change not by my alarm clock, but by a raging thunderstorm going on at about 8 AM. I got ready for work, and left my apartment to be greeted with this:

Podiatrist. Say it with me. Po-di-a-trist. :P

But yeah, the rain was crazy this morning. The 50 foot walk from my apartment to my car completely soaked me. Wouldn't have happened, except my umbrella was in my car.

Oops.

I sat there watching more and more red stuff go over on the doppler radar as the storm system moved NORTH instead of EAST.

And the best part? I had exactly the same thing happen last night when I got off the train. Had to camp out in the shelter for 20 minutes, and had a storm system also moving north. I don't get it.

I think anything that hits you hits here about 10 minutes later, since the storms always seem to move east to west. As a result, I narrowly missed the storms by about 15 minutes last night. :P

It poured for a good 30 minutes, though. Literally buckets. I could barely see out my windows.

They're calling for more storms tomorrow as well...

Tch! I am amused by the neologism.
