Severe Weather Alert!

So last Saturday was a really good day. I was here in Athens and When I went online to check the weather it said "Severe Weather Alert Athens County" it was predicting tornadoes and everything. So I look out the window and it was probably the most beautiful day I have seen in a long time, no clouds, not too hot. So I said to myself "if by 'severe' you mean SEVERELY AWESOME" So at about 12 and we all decided to go to Dow Lake and swim around and tan. Now as you all know I am one of the most pale people ever and have suffered from sun poisoning for a long time now. But I tried to tan and even though I did burn a little bit surprisingly no hives and no throwing up. YAY, so maybe I am not as bad anymore. Another thing, I found out that Elisa Buccur is getting married and is gonna have a Baby!! I am so excited and I get to be the Great-Godmother since Christie already gets to be the Godmother. I kinda made that title up, but I'm still pretty stoaked about it. Well anyway, yesterday was a really really good day.
Also, I started to run again. I haven't run since I was in cross country in 8th grade and I am incredibly out of shape. But, Bohardt runs and I have been looking for a way to exercise that would push myself and help me stay in shape. So I ran about 3/4 a mile on Friday and then again Saturday. I am in so much pain, I stretched a little bit, but apparently not enough. I am walking like Frankenstein and it hurts A LOT!
In other news, I also got a new digital camera. Well I didn't buy it or anything because I don't have any money, but Lois gave it to me because she didn't have any idea how to use it. It's a 12 mega pixel digital camera, a video camera, an mp3 player, and it can record audio files. It's pretty neat, but it is kind of awkward to use. I took a bunch of pictures so that I could give you guys an idea of the place that I stay, but I had some memory card issues and lost them. But I figured it out in time to take a couple pictures.
This is a picture of my friend Keith. He is a hilarious guy and I decided to start taking pictures of him because I am obsessed with his shirt.
Some people might find it offensive, but it's supposed to offend no one and everyone at the same time. I don't know I just wish that I had bought the thing.


Ok, so this next picture needs a little explaining. If you remember in my post 'Recovery Week' I spoke of stepping on glass and being retarded for not wanting to wear shoes. Well I refer to that day as 'Night of the Broken Glass' or if you know German and a little WWII history-Kristallknacht(I think that's how you spell it) Even though this isn't the exact pile that cut my foot, you get the idea...

All idiot comments welcome.

On a side note, I started this post on the 1st but it is now the 4th and there was some severe weather in Chillicothe. Last night there was a tornado warning from 8:30 till 3:00a.m. It was thundering like crazy and there wasn't more that a 1 second break in between lightning. It was raining like a tsunami and there was hail with intense wind gusts. When I looked outside I didn't see any rotation in the clouds, but the tornado siren was activated anyway. When we heard this Lois and I went into the basement and hung out till the first tornado warning expired. But the lights kept going on and off and the sky was so ominous looking. It was really cool, but also scary. There are still flash flood warnings today, but I think the worst is over. phew!



P.S.Well I know it's a little late, but I'm going to post about my memorial day weekend eventually.
