Lightning is bad.

About a half hour after I wrote that other blog, I got word that there was a tornado warning and cells headed my way.  Like a genius, I put on clothes and went back outside.  I was standing there for maybe 10 minutes and then I saw white and I stopped breathing.  I heard the thunder from the strike.  It was like a roar.

Pogo was outside.  Before the strike he kept acting crazy.  He would run to me and meow and yowl and run up to the porch and then back to me.  He was up on the porch when it hit and I was on a the bottom of a hill with part of the house between me and the strike.  I had my back to it.  He had the entire house between him.  He was fluffed up, but otherwise seemed ok.

My pulse is fine, my chest still kind of hurts, my breathing is back to normal.  The right side of my body kind of hurts though, but I think I’ll be ok.  Its probably from adrenaline and panic.  My ears aren’t throbbing either.
