It was 3:35am when I woke up.
What woke me was a combination of rain, thunder, lightning and a dog barking.
Priscilla.
She had refused to come in after the late night pee stop, and now with the rain pouring, she had changed her mind.
So I went out in my birthday suit and opened the gate to let her in.
After that I could not go back to sleep, and the weather got worse with an enormous and loud lightning hitting something on the other side of the canyon.
Great, thought I, here goes the electricity.
And then a strike so close that it lit up the whole inside of the house with the appropriate sound track.
Here goes the computer, thought I.
Never mind, I said to myself. I shan't worry about this till the morning.
Which finally came and I got up and went to the loo to pee and
there was light.
And I checked the computer which was happily blinking all its little green lights.
We are safe, for now.
Till the next storm.
