9 days since I last wrote. Kinda got *distracted* with stuff.

I am working this afternoon/this evening! It's going to be big! Huge hail and twisters ARE expected! My area, Fort Collins, Denver, Cheyenne Wyoming, and Windsor and Eaton are ALL under the threat! We're in the bullseye for the hugest twister threat. Guess what? It's all happening on a very important day! Yay! Am so looking forward to this! I can barely sit still right now!

I blew all my gold, but it was well worth it. I was going to post sooner, so to start keeping track again from the beginning, but I kinda *flopped* on that one. Just got too busy with stuff. Friends, the bug guy coming back over to spray, and of course just keeping a good eye after my house and making sure to keep it looking great. Right now, I am at 581,177,277mill gold! So I have *crept* back up there. I'm doing great, and I am posting a lot, too. Selling stuff in my store on the marketplace. That sort of thing. Getting my daily candies, and of course, just surfing the site. That's how I have been doing things lately to get good gold out of all this. After I post this, I will have 581,177,337mill gold!

I should probably get off here. Maybe my friend will call and want to chill or something? If so, that's a good thing. After I get home, if the storms haven't started up yet, I will go ahead and take me a nice shower(get it all done and over with so I don't have to worry about it later on).

Anyways..

One more thing before I do get my butt off here and click *post*.

The important event that happened today was actually 35 years ago on today(not to the day because it happened on a Tuesday, and today is Wednesday). The night of the twisters. 7 twisters in 3 hours. It was sparked off by a squall line about 7 and the twisters started up around 8ish CDT. This happened in Grand Island, NE. June 3rd, 1980. 5 lost their lives, and many more were hurt. Lots of dollars in damage was done to property, the worst being on South Locust street. After all was said and done, everyone was everyone's neighbour and helped each other pick up the pieces and move on with their lives.

I could have just copied and pasted that bit here from the site I got the rest of the info off of about this anniversary, but I figured I would just sum it all up.

Now we're in for it. From what I also saw on a severe weather map for thunderstorms and severe weather, Hall County Nebraska is also under the gun for some nasty weather. Then again, Hall County sits in what they call a "tornado density hole", so there's a chance or not so much a chance they may or may not get hit by a twister with this system. I dunno. I live here in Greeley, CO, so I wouldn't have a clue if they had the same forecast as 35 years ago(20% chance of thunderstorms towards evening hours), but I wish them the best and hope they don't get a repeat. I find it quite interesting, though, that we're going to have a HUGE threat for twisters this afternoon and into this evening. I heard some stuff going around that we are in the same *density hole* as Grand Island, but I highly doubt it. We have gotten twisters in the past, and that wasn't just due to a density hole playing its part. I know these things. I have been an unpaid tornado chaser/meteorologist for how long now? Since like 13? I dunno. I deserve to be paid for this kind of stuff, for as much as I know about everything. Of course if I showed up at TWC or NSSL and was like taking over their stuff and they saw me just working like crazy they would be falling over backwards, thinking "why didn't we go out there looking for her before?" It would just be funny, and I would just stand/sit there and point and laugh.

Anyways...

I better get going before this turns into more of a book than I had already planned for it to be. Until next time!
