I have a feeling I'm gong to be never so glad for a thunderstorm in my life.

My apartment complex is supposed to be having a pool party tonight and unfortunately my apartment is right next to the pool. Did I mention the LIVE BAND? I certainly forgot about that until I heard them starting to warm up.

At any rate, however, there's a thunderstorm fast blowing up and I saw an impressive bit of lightning just now, so with any luck they'll move the band inside the apartment office soon so I don't have the FULL FORCE of the instruments.





... Although I'm not entirely sure that's going to happen: there's now thunder AND loud drums and bass going. Are these people TOTAL FUCKING IDIOTS? THUNDERSTORM. WATER. ELECTRICITY.

Oh, you, with your earth logic. XD

I know. Silly me. I checked weather.com and it looks like the main cell's passing south of here, but there's a scattering of green, yellow, and red small spots floating in this direction on the map.

If I was you, I would hope they all get struck by lightning.

The only problem with that scenario that I see is the blast would probably kill the electricity in this area, and I'm just about to hit the all-digital stage of TEH SEKRIT PROJEKT. :)

I may be forced to go see a movie in self-defense, though. Must check what's playing.

These are movies I am interested in and am wildly guessing you might be interested in:
Broken Flowers? Jim Jarmusch movie with Bill Murray
Happy Endings? From writer-director of The Opposite of Sex
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants?
Murderball? Paraplegic rugby documentary; these guys in wheelchairs ram each other so hard they knock each other over.

I think these are rentals, but if my local friends went, they could probably talk me into joining them:
March of the Penguins?
November?
Me and You and Everyone We Know?

That's real "hydroelectric" power. Haha! Okay... Moving on swiftly.

Just think of the cool (and free) light show you'll get! Just, err, don't open any windows for a while afterwards.

Hee. :) The power surge through the wacky wiring in this complex will probably fry my computer, though. Otherwise I'd be so there. XD

Hon, these are musicians. They're always a few cans short of a six-pack. So it doesn't surprise me to hear that they would continue to play, despite impending doom looming above them...

They seem to have escaped the wrath of Darwin's Chainsaw of Natural Selection. More's the pity.

Danm....I was hoping to read something about some musicans electricuted while playing at an apartment complex during a thunder storm in the next volume of the Darwin Awards...
