So did we. My one friend's house was under a tornado watch all weekend.

Curufin · 06-04-2008, 02:25 PM

Pretty bad, Hector. More rain, wind, hail and tornadoes than lightning, but there's plenty of lightning too.

Acalewia · 06-04-2008, 03:24 PM

Thunderstorms suck, too. Esp when the tornado sirens are going off nonstop

Curufin · 06-04-2008, 04:31 PM

That's from my hometown newspaper, about two or three miles from where I live. We had a huge storm come through and got 3 inches of rain in about half an hour.

Yay.

Yay.

You tempted fate, dissing the tornado watch.

When I saw the news, I wondered how you were faring. Thanks for the update.

Curufin · 06-04-2008, 05:40 PM

I guess I did.

Stupid weather.

And now another storm is coming.

Acalewia · 06-04-2008, 05:44 PM

Lovely, eh?

That kinda looks like Northern Arkansas not too long ago

**Mari** · 06-04-2008, 06:17 PM

>_<
Good thing we don't have tornadoes on land.
I hope everyone remains dry!

Acalewia · 06-04-2008, 06:29 PM

Um, Mari, Tornados do form on land. That's what makes them so deadly and destrictive. The trailer park down the road that got hit in April looked like some kid threw around some legos

***Earniel*** · 06-04-2008, 06:41 PM

I think she means here in Western Europe. We don't get the kind of storms the USA does.

Curufin · 06-04-2008, 07:03 PM

That's for sure...having lived in both places, the weather is much more violent here.

**Mari** · 06-04-2008, 07:24 PM

Then the ones formed on the sea are called differently? I just know it as "windhoos"... >_<

Oh. Really?

The last sane person · 06-04-2008, 08:01 PM

Yeah, those are called typhoons. Not tornados.

*Flops on a pile of cushions* Oh **** me.

Went to dentist, had six shots, still wasn't numb. Then he proceeded to dope me up with some of god knows what and replaced the filling in my tooth; his hand then slipped and his drill cut the inside of my cheek. I then wobbled out of his office and was walking across the side walk when some idiot woman ( I kid you not) looking down and typing on her CrackBerry in her tinted-window Mercedes Benz came barreling out of the parking lot, stopped for a second (still not looking up) then gassed it and headed for me.

Doped up as I was, my ninja reflexes saved me from being plowed under and I butt-hopped onto her hood, my leg and hip taking the brunt of the impact. I proceeded to roll off her hood and windshield and somehow land on my good leg. I think the loud CATHUNKACRUNKBANGSMGEEE of me hitting the car, denting her hood smashing her windshield and sliding off her car and alerted the AssHat that maybe all was not right.

Eventually she stopped and got out of the car and came around back to see what the hell happened. Yadda Yadda Yadda, lots of cursing ensued that would get me banned from Entmoot, then paramedics were called and peeled me off the sidewalk. I wasn't too bad. Still pretty coherent; they checked me out and said I had concusion and put a stress fracture in my right forearm protecting my head (Martial arts with my brothers taught me that much; cover the head!) Some lacerations and goop, but no legs broken that they could tell.

Then madam asshat shrugged it off and said she would pay for the medical stuff, just send her the bill. So I got all her info and am about to take her up on that. Heh. My ass left a pretty good dent in her hood, and she needs a new windsheild. Erg, my back hurts too but drugs are my friends right now....Yeah. I hate Bellevue.

That was Monday. I have to catch my breath before I even attempt to describe Tuesday.

Acalewia · 06-04-2008, 08:16 PM

So you left your autograph on her car, eh?

Glad your ok and didn't break anything

The last sane person · 06-04-2008, 08:19 PM

yeah...Broke my arm and my head (only slightly tho). Anyone got any spare morphine?

Thain Peregrin Took I · 06-05-2008, 12:02 AM

Ow. Sounds like it was a very bummer-ful day.

Hope you get better!

I went to my friend's house today. We chilled, talked, got lovingly attacked by their extremely hyper puppy, and watched a few episodes of Hogan's Heroes and Get Smart.

**Mari** · 06-05-2008, 03:38 AM

*utters a few curses directed at the idiot woman and a prayer of thanks towards above*
I'm glad you are here Sane. >_< Nice reflexes you have!
*carefully hugs Sane and hands her a big glass of cognac (brandy?)*
It's medical, so here you go. Makes you forget any pain you have

***Earniel*** · 06-05-2008, 05:16 AM

Ow, Sane, you do lead a bumpy life! Poor you. Best wishes to get well soon.
