Default I really hate lightning

Think I've found the one thing I truly hate about TV -- the lightning storms. Oddly, the tornado watches and warnings don't really phase me. Probably will if I see one but not until then. However, every time there's a lightning flash, I'm ready to crawl under the bed. I'd take a mattress into the closet and put it on top of me but I'm too afraid the lightning will start a fire and I'd be trapped.

I don't mind the torrential downpours. They're an inconvenience. I don't like the wind but California's winds were worse. But I really, really hate the lightning. I'm ready to be rescued!
