my summer is officially over...

and what an appropriate change in the weather. thunderstorms on the eve of school are ominous signs. they reflect, i'm sure, the inner feelings of all those that start school on monday. (bright, sunny, wonderful summer days are over... now for the dark, dreary, inconvenient school days. lol)

i was sitting at my computer a few minutes ago when the whole screen flashed like lightning. for about half a second i wondered what on earth was the matter... but then i jumped so hard i about knocked the monitor off the desk as the most GIGANTIC thunder boom ever reached my ears. i am not exaggerrating... as those of you who were in topeka tonight well know. geez... talk about startling.
on a rather more happy note, my day in KC was great. i skipped volleyball, but hey, people have already skipped this week for much worse reasons. we're being worked harder this year than i ever remember before, but i'm actually glad... it's good for our game i suppose.
well, i'd better go make dinner, so i'll talk to you all later... and see you monday if you're in my unfortunate position.
