Wow

This is/was an epic thunderstorm. Blocks of hail so big that they bounced stones off of my neighbour's roofs. The cul-de-sac is flooded. Forked lightning and very loud thunder.

I was in the shower when it started, and I have no idea whether being in a shower during a thunderstorm is more dangerous than not, so I rinsed very quickly and got out.

Why is it always bigger hailstones in summer than winter?

Now it's stopped raining and left us with that weird peri-storm witchlight, and I feel very strange having watched that.

(no subject)

I *think* I just bought enough chocolate to get me through the next week...


Chocolate-chocolate, cold dessert-y chocolate, hot dessert-y chocolate, and chocolate covered caramel ice-cream.


Also, I'm considering getting a belly bar. How does one go about arranging/finding out about such things? I know I have f-list people who have experience with such things, and as such can probably point out things that the internet (and such) might tell me that are wrong?

Or, where would be a good place in York to get it done, maybe?



Also, today there was thunder and hail until about half past four, and I decided (once the treat of more hail had passed) that I didn't have time to get to the post office. However, I could have gone to Fulford Cycles and asked them how to make my bike less unhappy, but I didn't remember that until I didn't have time to go there either. I did go to co-op and get chocolate and yogurt (and milk and butter) though.

To-do list )
