"Half A Mile From The County Fair, And The Rain Came Pouring Down"

Oklahoma weather--it's been beautiful for the past several days, with warm temperatures, sunshine, and a general feeling that spring was showing up early. Now it's thundering and lightning outside, starting to rain, and tomorrow is supposed to be nasty and wet all day. My car was clean, the past tense verb being the key in that statement.

Picked up Mellencamp tickets this afternoon. We have floor seats, which was pretty cool considering the tickets were only $40 each after all the handling fees were added (stupid handling fees). I think we paid twice that per ticket for Clapton. Mellencamp apparently has a history of trying to keep his ticket prices down, though. He's kinda like Tom Petty or Pearl Jam that way, I guess. I'm really looking forward to the show. Still contemplating the Wallflowers up in Tulsa on the 16th, though. That'd be a great show to see, especially since they've got a new album in the works and might very well preview a few of the songs from it. Mmm, new songs...

Anyway, I'm shutting the computer off. No reason to let it get zapped by the damn weather just 'cause I'm too lazy to shut the thing down, right?
