Crash Boom Crash

You know the beginning of the Steven Spielberg War of the Worlds? With the crazy super loud, super strong lightning strikes that are happening all around Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning?

I swear to god that is my house right now. I am absolutely freaking out here. I keep having to look out the window to make sure no houses or trees are on fire.

Um, speaking of which, gonna turn off the computer now. Pray that one of the ginormous trees behind my house doesn't fall on me while I cower in my bed in the dark.

I think I hear hail...tornados must be close behind, and I'm terrified of them...

*cry*

Update: I survived, obviously. No damage that I can discern to the house or any nearby trees. I didn't sleep until after 1, though, because it was so loud. And also it's hard to sleep with a terrified cat clawing you every time it starts booming.
