One thing I miss from round rock is the thunder and lightning storms, (it is just way too hot here, even though it is techncially 5 degrees cooler here than there...) It seems as though for a whole week it was raining and lighting. The funny thing is, Breezy, the girl I work with is terrified of thunder, and it was like a roaring lion on steroids, the rumbling vibrated through the buildings and made your heart thud... It was as though the storm was right above our apartment complex, hovering right above our APX office while we were working. It hadn't started raining yet, only dry thunder and lighting... it was so RAD!!!!!!
