1. Ohhhh, man, I want, I want!

2. I was in a JOYOUS mood today, loving the sunny heat, driving to my mom's with the window down and Neko blaring, and then we went kayaking and my legs got sunburned but we saw turtles and geese and it was cool and quiet on the water, just lovely. It wore me out in the best way, and I got a little bit of studying done, but mostly I'm taking today as my holiday instead of Monday, so whatever, and then I raced a thunderstorm home and made it just in time to shut the windows against the downpour. And on the way, it was thunderstorm-dusk and wind blowing in all directions and leaves dancing like cyclones on the street and eerie, murky half-light and scarcely any other cars and more Neko singing he sang nursery rhymes to paralyze / the wolves the eddy out of the corner of his eye / they squared him frozen where he stood / in the glow of the furniture piled high for firewood / and the blood runs crazy with giant strides / and the woodsman failed to breach those fangs in time and it thundered and thundered and Libby hid under the bed.

3. I love Numi's ginger oolong tea, and the purple flowers on my fire escape, and these fleeting weeks of almost-summer when the days are hot but the nights are cool, and Tivo-ing reruns of Scrubs to watch after a long, boring day of studying.

I looove Numi's ginger oolong tea also. It's quite gingery and fabulous! And hooray for reruns of scrubs always being on.

Of all the things in the world I like to experience, being outside in that pre-thunderstorm weather is probably in my top five. The darkening sky, the wind whipping up, the smell... *deep breath* I love it. Of course, I prefer to be indoors once the rain and the lightning really starts.

i miss those big thunderstorms. i remember racing home to shut windows.
