Reminder...

There are people on the net that have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw a temper tantrum.

To these people I say grow up.

Here's a bit of info people...the web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am, or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else. It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and nasty site has disappeared.

I pay for this site. It's mine. That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me, cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about it.

*gets off soapbox*

Ironic Weather
So today - June 1st - marks the official start of the 2006 Atlantic Hurricane season. It runs through November 30th. According to the National Hurricane Center, we can expect a scary active year:
The outlook calls for a very active 2006 season, with 13-16 named storms, 8-10 hurricanes, and 4-6 major hurricanes.

So is it ironic that it stormed this afternoon? Hard rain and a ton of lightning? Keep in mind, it's literally rained about three times so far this year before today. (No, really. We're in a major drought right now.)
...the spring months will have a total of 2.46 inches, or 5.03 below average rainfall, making this the driest spring since 2001, when Florida was in the third year of a drought.

With soaring temperatures and no rain, wildfire danger remains high. A measurement of soil moisture and fire potential is near the top of the scale for nearly the entire Florida peninsula.

In an index on which zero means saturated and 800 equals desert, the numbers for the peninsula are 500 to 700, except for in Southeast Florida.


So...a good rainy day? Some way to start the season off, eh?

Still though, it was nice to hear the rain again. Even though poor Gracie was really freaking out over the thunder. (Aw...poor kitty.) Like I said, it's been a loooong time since we've had rain - poor thing probably didn't remember what those loud crashes, booms and rumbles were!
