The day started off nice enough...Mayday sunning himself on the backyard lounge chairs, me inside preparing the palm fronds and bowl of grapes to hand-feed him. When all of a sudden, a HUGE storm started brewing! I was in Michael's getting some scrapbooking supplies to jolt my creativity when I heard the low-growling thunder. I finished up there and then headed to HEB to grab some steak for dinner (that I had to bake because it was raining AND the grill was out of gas: double whammie!) and made it out just before it hit. I had to rush the guy in front of me: Dude, when it's about to storm? NOT THE TIME TO FLIRT WITH THE CASHIER. SHE'S NOT INTERESTED, AND I'M IN A HURRY.

By the time I got home it was pouring, and it sounded like the raindrops were going to come through my windshield. When I stopped in the driveway at home, that's when I saw the little white balls bouncing off the car. Yipes. HAIL!!
