Me too! Did you ever read Galveston? A novel about storm chasers!


I prayed to God for my school to flood. I remember lying in bed praying for that flood, and deciding to use telepathy to make it happen. I imagined, concentrated on mentally blocking the drains and turning the water on and flushing the toilets. But no flood. :(

the name's familiar but I can't remember reading it as of recent..

I would watch the weather channel sometimes more than I would regular TV..

"Storm stories" was (and somewhat still is) my favorite TV show.

I loved Storm of the Century; it was my favorite movie for a while, and I watched it 2 days before the year 2000 and with fun neighbors so that added to the magic.

I was horrified of lightning. I would cry everytime there was thunder.

I think it's because I was home alone the first time there was a thunderstorm and I didn't know what it was.

I was scared of elevators when I was really really small. I would cry if I had to go into an elevator.

At the age of 12 i decided i was going to get baptized and arranged it at my church, became a atheist about a year later. :)

When i was a kid i had a fixation on anything sour, i would eat lemons and anything else sour all the time. I also had a fixation on spicy things as well, i would eat peppers and hot sauce all the time, till the point i had hiccups or tears running down my face.

I laughed during "sad" disney movies, like Bambi, Pocahontas, and other movies like that. I would wonder why people were crying during the movies when i was at the theatres, my step mom thought i was inhumane and she would discipline me for it.

I still to this day wonder why people cry during animated movies. :?:

One of my very first memories is the image of two small pictures presenting Mary with baby Jesus hanging above my bed.

I laughed hysterically during the scene from Jim Carrey's The Grinch where the young Grinch destroys his classroom because he got teased. I think other people thought I was being obnoxious for laughing at such a sad scene, but I honestly don't know why it struck me as funny.
