I found myself wide awake pretty fast before 6am today - thanks to the major thunderboomer that blasted through Jingletown. The lightning was pouring in the room and seemed to be coming from right outside the window. Yes, I admit it, I made my attempts to convince the dogs to curl up with me and took what I could get (finding myself cuddled up with Vixen's butt). As much as I love to sit on a covered porch and watch the lightning and rain, I cower at its presence when I am trying to sleep.
