The sun is getting excited. And that means it's time for some SOLAR STORMS!
They may sound fun, but according to scientists, they mess up all sorts of electronics. Including GPS. So, if you are driving in a solar storm, you might get directions to a McDonald's drive-thru window when you wanted to go to Home Depot.
"How may I help you?"
"I'd like to get a chainsaw."
"Um...sorry sir, we don't have that. Would you like a Big Mac?"
"No. I need something to cut down a tree."
"..."
"Hello?"
"A Happy Meal, maybe?"
"Fine."
Get ready for a lot of confusion, kids!
Get your umbrellas, too. Solar storms can get a little crazy. Sometimes, if you catch them at just the right moment, you can see a solarbow. It's like a rainbow, except it's from a solar storm. And way prettier. Like if a rainbow put on a fancy dress and was picked for prom queen.
That's pretty.
I'm off to try on my solar dress.
Enjoy Everything.

taking off your uniform
I felt the need to tell you this story. Something weird happened this weekend. I'll explain it the best I can. This is 100% true. I know sometimes I might stretch the truth a TINY bit, but not this time.
Do you order stuff off amazon.com? I like it. It's easy and I can get stuff pretty cheap. Now, I usually order cds, comic books and graphic novels. That's really all I ever get. Maybe I'll get a gift for somebody or something, but that's rare because I would rather spend my money on me. Wouldn't you? I thought you would.
So, amazon has these "gold box deals" that pop up daily and it's a little extra savings on certain products. It has a section at the bottom where it will show me some comics and cds that are similar to what I have on my wish list at 35% off instead of 30% off or something like that.
Does this all make sense? I felt the need to explain all this for people who didn't amazon stuff.
Now, onto the weirdness. I have to tell you about TWO of the items in my gold box. NEVER have I had anything this strange in my gold box. I haven't even ordered anything that would hint at my interest in these two items. I swear.
The first one was a chainsaw. What?! Really?????? A chainsaw? What on my wish list could possibly imply that I want a chainsaw? I mean, was it Batman? Maybe the X-Men comics? I don't even think I'm strong enough to lift a chainsaw, let alone try to actually cut down a tree with one. I like trees. I don't want to cut one in half. I'd probably hug a tree, but I don't think chainsaws can be used for that.
The other thing...I swear I don't know why this popped up...was Nude Aerobics 2. Yep. I guess the demand was so high after part 1 that they decided to make a part 2. It is a VHS tape from 1993 and it is what it says it is. It is an exercise tape. First of all, why does my gold box think I exercise? Sure I read Superman, but I'm not trying to LOOK like him! Also, if I were to actually work out, I would wear clothes. Why? I don't know, it just seems like the way to go...and I think the gym has rules about that sort of thing. I'm not sure, but people have always had clothes on when I go there.
So, yeah. I haven't checked yet today, but I hope gold box has figured out that I would much rather have deals on comic books. I don't want to work out so I can lift a chainsaw. I really don't want to use a chainsaw unless I'm wearing clothes...or protective goggles at least!
I'm I little scared to find out what it will say, but I'm off to check my gold box deals.
Enjoy!
