Wind and I decided that I would be preventerNOTHING and would have absolutely no special powers or abilities and I'd be entirely useless and worthless. HOW'S THAT FOR UNIQUE
Anyway, today was crazy.
Power outages all over town except my house, but I didn't know that until 10 minutes ago. I left for a grad party around 2, and while I was there a storm came out of NOWHERE. Heaviest rain I've seen in a long time. We saw the rain across the lake, and there was enough time for someone to say "Look at the water down there! Is that rain?" before we were being blasted by death-torrents of heavy rainfall from the sky. We ran inside and waited it out and it was really cool because of how crazy the wind was and how much rain there was.
As soon as it ended (about five minutes later and almost instantly) we went out on their boat and went tubing. The calm after storm means that the water is like glass. Tons of fun on the water. One of our friends has never tubed before and kept falling off and it was really funny.
Afterwards, we realized there was no power on this side of town. We went out to eat later and saw so many trees knocked over, and downed power cables, it was crazy. At 11PM it was like driving through a ghost-town. No traffic lights were working, there was no power everywhere, fallen trees were blocking the road in random places.
I was finally dropped off back at my house on the other side of town. I never even lost power. I know this because even if our power flickers off for an instant, a certain light turns on near some cabinet in the living room that nobody ever turns on in any other situation. Also, I had left a DVD on pause, and it was still there.
