I am so freakin' tired right now. We had horrible storms all through the night and the pounding rain, wind, and constant thunder and lightning meant that I couldn't sleep. Bad storms freak me out so I spent most of last night awake in bed and on the verge of a panic attack. I'm a tired wreck today.

The downtown area of the city I live in is completely flooded. The lake flooded out and that entire area is under water. We had to make a run to the bank last night and found out that most of the area was closed. There were also news crews around. Also, people have been standing on the streets and sidewalks of the area and spear fishing. The fish are swimming right through the streets! I think it's kind of amusing that people are heading there to spear some fish and then bring them back home to cook for dinner that night. That's probably as close to looting as my neck of the woods will get.

With the horrible storms that blew through here last night, ths flooding isn't going to get any better. It's right now that I'm so happy we live on the second floor!

We lost power for a little bit last night (luckily it was only out for a few minutes) and lightning hit the field right next to our apartment. The entire place shook so bad.

The weather channel forecast we watched before going to be last night was freaky. "Severe storms with damaging winds in excess of 70 mph, sometimes with large golf ball to tennis ball sized hail. Possibly a tornado." Jesus f*cking christ... I don't think the weather out here has ever been THIS bad.

And now, for some good news that's not weather related. I got a call the other day and my car is in! It took awhile to get in stock (hybrids are not easy to get ahold of these days), but it's here. Woot! I'll be making the deal Tuesday evening. While I'm sad to see Lexus Luthor go, he's 7 years old and it's time. My new car is going to be a 2008 Lexus RX 400h with a brandywine mica exterior and a black interior. *drools* I'm nervous and excited at the same time.

I'm also proud of Gabriel... he said his name today! Normally he just calls himself "baby". But today I finally got him to call himself "Gabe". I'm interested to see if he keeps calling himself "baby" of if he starts switching over to "Gabe".

Three years ago today I found out that I was pregnant with Gabriel. *beams*
