2005-03-04 - 7:50 p.m. Okay, trippy day today. First I didn't have seminary this morning. (Can you hear the halaluja chorus?) So I got kind of sleep in. (Seven) And then something in me snapped making myself feel the need to clean my room. Not that I don't ever clean my room, it's just usually, when Bruce is talking to me, I have no energy to do anything like that and my room runs to Hadies and back. So today, I ended that trip to Hadies and now I feel relieved. I always feel more calm when my room isn't messy. I have no idea why. It makes it easier for me to think and write and ponder and sleep. My mom never bothers me about a dirty room though, because a)she knows I'll clean it eventually and I never let it get TOO insane and b) she says that creative minds aren't always orginized so she thinks that every time my room gets completely cluttered, I'm on the brink of some freakish break through. But it's clean now. Wonder what that means? So then this afternoon I went to work and the kids desperately wanted to walk to the park. So I took them. Little did I know it was a fifteen minute walk through some scary parts of town. I prayed for my life many, many times. Haha. Anyway, then we played at the park for an hour and the weather was beautiful, not a cloud to be seen, perfect blue sky, the air was clear, it was really nice. When we went back to their house, about an hour later, I heard thunder. I was thinking that I was just hearing things because there was no way it was raining, but then I looked outside and it was all dark and thundery and then BOOM it was pouring! I mean pouring. You have no idea how weird that is unless you live here. This part of LA is prepared for like 8 inches of rain all winter, and today, we got like 9 inches in one hour. Needless to say, there was mad flooding. And then, it started hailing like no other and we were just watching it hail and lighting and I'm thinking, 'hey it's in the middle of March....... we're in california........ it HAS to be Armaggeddon'. The thunder was so loud that it rumbled the house. People from parts of the world in which it rains will not understand why this is amazing to me, but it was. I don't think it's stormed that hard here for years. When I got home, in my neighborhood, there was a three layer inch of hail stones that wouldn't melt. It looked like snow. Everywhere. In March. In California. I'll let you know when the firey balls of hell begin to destroy the Earth. It was sad because we couldn't go to the movies which is what I would be doing rather then sitting here typing. But that's okay. We ordered huge flipping pizzas and ate and watched movies here and drank soda like mad instead. And now I'm seriously considering the option of a bath. I haven't taken a bath in months. Don't be gross, I've showered. But soaking in a bath is a luxery at my house. We have all of these things to use in the bath like candles and salts and bubbles and fragreced cubes and all manner of nicness like that. We're a big bath family. That sounds wrong and why I'm sitting here writing about my baths, I do not know but other then the ginormus snow storm, nothing is going on so I shall sign off, for I have made a bath sound yummy. Yay for yummy baths. *Kisses*, ttys signing off: a slightly nuerotic
