Just Stroll-ing Along . . .

so last night we had what was reported as the worst storm toledo has seen in over 25 years. i think we ended up at over 10 inches of "torrential" rain, with hail and over 35 mph winds and lots of tornados. it was pretty cool - brian and i stood on the porch and watched the heavy rains and stupid people driving fast past our house and hydroplaning around. we had a bit of water in our basement and big branches down in the backyard, but for the most part everything's fine. the dogs were hysterical - thunder thought he needed to spend the evening hiding between my legs ... which would have been fine, except i was painting and he's a little too big to be doing that. anyway, brian wanted to go tornado chasing ... yeah, he's from oklahoma! i wanted nothing to do with that, since it was raining so bad. the whole night though was kind've fun and scary and romantic, too.

anyhoo .... back to worky.
