As I sit here, in Wales, with my windows open trying to feel the storm breeze… I find that I get a little misty thinking of home. My actual home – in the Deep South.
I’m finding myself pretty reflective this Monday morning. I miss thunder and lightening. Folks are far too civilised in the UK to have a good thunder boomer.
And, you know that little thrill you get from the weather dude when it’s all breaking loose? I miss that too. I miss everyone sitting outside drinking cold beer and watchin the sky – wonderin’ if this is twister weather.
I miss ‘y’all’ and ‘them’. Loyalty that flows through the bone, no matter how many times you have pissed ‘them’ off.
It makes a great afternoon yanno… Gettin y’all to come over to hang with momma and them to have a cold beer and wait out the storm.
It might sound dire, but trust me – it’s actually pretty grand.
