Firstly, I find it hilariously ironic (but yet not entirely that surprising) that when I decide to use Mother Nature as an excuse to blog, she laughs in my face by giving me no excuse to do so!
Last weekend, I made a trip home to see some friends and family. For the past few months, I’ve been adopting a new philosophy of leaving my laptop behind when I make these trips home; I am really beginning to appreciate the importance of separating family time and online/social media time. But, naturally, Mamma Nature decided to brew up some fireworks. (That being said, however, that particular storm was quite fascinating to witness, so had I even had computer, I doubt that I would have posted anything.)
After the storm had passed and I was able to head back to my apartment, the sky was filled with the silent flashes of what I have countless heard referred to as “heat lightning”. I told myself, I think I am going to research this phenomenon and then blog my findings!
So I began looking up some info on heat lightning when I realized just how painfully relevant heat lightning is to the title of this blog. Thus far, I have made some reference to the weather in every post (given, this is only my third tumblr post…). I don’t want to tie myself down to any topical rules for myself while posting! Who says this thing has to have any semblance of continuity or relevance? Screw that!
(Not only that, but heat lightning ended up being no where hear as fascinating or phenomenal as I had imagined it was going to be. Check it out for yourself: Wikipedia never lies.)
But here, now, I sit with a dilemma… Even though I did not want to create a topic trend among my own posts, I have still done so. Not only that, I have titled this particular post with something that is totally irrelevant from its content. As I’ve said, even though I do want to have to confine myself to any topic continuities, I have already begun to create a topical pattern, and I feel bad for all of you because I realize how hard it is to adapt to change.
So, in the interest of weaning you away from the comfort of consistency, I will post something food-related. This is just for you. Yes, you. Feel special—but don’t get used to it! Just sayin’.
