Walking in the rain

Category: Photography | 24 Comments | Posted 21:44

We had a cool thunderstorm last night, with lots of lightning and torrential rain and everything. I went for a walk around the neighbourhood (at around 1am), it was a lot of fun, I was barefoot and wearing a short dress (had an umbrella tho), I felt very free and holiday-ish. :P There was no one else around obviously, I bet I was the only person outside in our whole suburb.

I also lay in the field behind our house and took literally dozens of pictures in the hope of catching the lightning. I managed three times, and once even with a nice zig-zag, which I thought I'd share with you here.... as you can see. The little house on the right is ours. Well, the little black shape.

That is all really. Spent most of today in bed with a headache. Hate headaches. Like beds tho. Got lots of reading done. The weather's cooled down a little bit. Only ever so slightly, but it helps. Will get food now, then return to bed or something. :P

Hehe, kannst Du mir einen Gefallen tun und in Deinem Musikbutton-Script die RAM-Datei umbenennen. Jedesmal, wenn ich bei Dir war und dann wieder meine Seite besuche und meinen Button drücke, spiele ich Deinen Song ab. Aber ich will doch MJ hören und nicht Nena! Meh. LOL

This might be a stupid old wive's tale, but I thought you weren't supposed to look at lightning cos it would blind you? Actually no, I remember watching major lightning in Corfu.
*suddenly aware of eyes on me and quietly exits room*

Cool picture!! I wish I did interesting things like that in my free time LOL. And you ARE bloody interesting, do ppl ever tell you that? LOL @ rain - u mad. Must be hot over there.

Ich hab's jetzt schon bei mir selbst umbenannt, aber irgendwie gibt's immer noch sowas wie einen Konlikt mit unseren Seiten, den ich net schnalle. LOL, whatever. Macht nix.

Walking in the rain is beautiful. I lately also did that when I came back from my masseur and it started raining heavily while the sun was shining hot. I love it when it rains while it's hot. I could just get undressed and take a shower. LOL, but we're not living in the bush - unfortunately.

Posted by: Michelle at July 23, 2003 10:49 PM

LMAO indeed! Sometimes I'd like to do that too (get undressed).
Sinead - I'm NOT interesting tho. No no.

Hm @ rm Datei, also hoerst Du immer noch meinen Song?? Also umgekehrt geht's jedenfalls nicht, wenn ich bei Dir anhoere, kommt NICHT meiner. *g*

Posted by: Clarissa at July 23, 2003 11:01 PM

Jep, manchmal höre ich Deinen Song. Aber eigentlich ist es eher dann, wenn meine Seite gerade offen ist und ich Deine Seite gleichzeitig besuche und dann bei mir den Button drücke. Wenn ich meine Seite aber reloade, dann spielt mein Song. Kannst ja mal so probieren. LOL

> I'm NOT interesting tho
