boo crazy thunderstorm

so the sky started getting dark sometime around 4 this afternoon...  and i kept plugging along with work.  and at 5 i still found myself plugging along - really 150+ funds to sift through? if i dont want to do it does anyone else really want to ?.  anyways...  so a little before 6 i decided to head on out..  i have farm fresh asparagus and potatoes in my basket from the weekly market delivery.  i have fresh wild salmon in the fridge from earth fare.  i am going home to grill up some food and then head on out on the bike.  and when i excited the building, yup it was still a little dark outside but no rain.  i even put my sun roof open.  but then eventually the rain drops started to fall.  it was really just a sprinkle.  and when i looked on the horizon toward home i thought it still looked sunny.  and closer to home i got the clouds seemed to be following me.  sure the horizon looked clear but up close - not so much.  i started thinking - i wonder if there is a tornado warning and waht the heck would i do if i saw one?  i probably wouldnt be using the "heck" if i did....  and on i drove.  i could then start to see the rain moving in the distance.  it looked like it had passed my route BUT OH NOOOOOO was i ever wrong about that.  not some hundred yards later - MONSOON type rain just teaming down... right on that part of rea road that has really bad drainage, the part i always say i wont drive on in the rain...  and it continued until i pulled into the driveway
needless to say - the food got grilled in the middle of the raindrops.  truth be told the rain kind of spoiled my mood for the grilled food.  i am sure it wouldhave tasted better if it were sunny.
and the bike ride?  just not happening
not sure what i am going to do instead
oh VAMPIRE DIARIES....
not that that will get any calorie or cardio in...
