so a week ago, i was sitting at my computer.  my dad was in the shower.  my mom was in her room.  it was storming a little.  and BAMMMM.  i thought the house got struck by lightning or something.  it was weird.  i felt it in my whole body, but i think it was just the thunder because i was leaning against a wall.  we didn’t think much of it (other than jumping out of our pants) until we went outside a few hours later and saw that bark from a tree in our front yard had like exploded and been shot off all around it.  and that’s what the tree looked like.  there’s a big crack down the middle.  craaazy.

in better news, i’m going to be an uncle today!

look out, uncle jesse.  uncle brandy is here.
