Rock You Like A Hurricane
So everyone and their mother is freaking out about Irene. I’m not freaking. Quite the opposite actually. I love storms and extreme weather. It’s the adrenaline junkie in me. I’m actually really bummed that I’ll be working all weekend…and that it is going to be insanely busy for the next week or so. I can already see it now that there are going to be moronic people calling in saying they don’t have services and want a tech to go to their home and fix it. In the middle of a hurricane. Because TV and internet are so crucial to so many people…
But seriously, I really, really wish I was going to be at home, trying to keep the cats calm and enjoying a nice Pumpkin UFO or glass of wine over dinner while watching the rain come down in sheets and the wind create crazy patterns in the trees and clouds.
I drove through a tornado last year. Well, not through the funnel, but legit right outside of it. There were tree limbs, highway signs and even a giant piece of industrial roofing flying across the highway right in front of me, and my little coupe was being pelted with hail and rain and leaves and it was rocking back and forth. The cacophony was incredible as well as unforgettable.
Maybe it’s my Scorpio nature or the overwhelming presence of water in my chart, but anything that has to do with weather or water just seems to make me feel at home. I think storms are sexy. Truly. I’m not crazy!
Case in point; there is probably nothing more romantic and sensual than kissing the one that you love in a warm gentle rain…making coming in off of a beach or from the yard, and you just stop and cup her face in your hands…
2.0; Making love with the thrumming beat of rain on the windows or roof, a low rumble of thunder and the strobe effects of lightning, giving brief glimpses of sweat and skin…
I mean, maybe it’s just me, but these are some of the things I think about when I visualize my future. I’m going to be with someone who feels the same way about these things, for sure. Because I’m that person that stops and takes cell phone pictures of rainbows framing highway overpasses or the clouds or moon reflecting off of the glass calm of a lake.
Yeah…
