Haiku, Can You?

Okay, I'm hurtin' for ideas today, 'cause my head is jammed, cram packed with useless, superfluous information. But, in the midst of the madness is a little book one of our local high schools produces every year. It contains poetry and sketches done by students...
So, after nearly 20 years of being 'school-less', I will attempt a haiku that captures this exact moment in time for me. Please do the same on comments... It's quick and succint and easy. Don't think too hard or you will defeat the purpose!

3 lines.
1st - 5 syllables
2nd - 7 syllables
3rd - 5 syllables.

Try it...you know you wanna.

HAIKU
Thunder from afar
Muttering a song of rage
Raindrops in my mind

Jen: Don't worry 'bout it! If she bitches, tell HER to clean it.

Ging: **Shudder** Boo tried to get me to go thru that dam thing yesterday....and I said NOOOOO SPANK YOU! I can see giant reptiles on TV, and that's close enough for me.

Besides, dude's setup looked a little, er, um...well, subpar. What if one of those things escaped and wrapped around my leg?????? EEEeeeeeeek!

As my Papaw used to say, "Haaah-uh!" That means no.

I cried when it went off the air, literally. When they aired the farewell episodes, I got my tivo controller, drink, popcorn and a box of tissues. I didn't move from that couch until the final credit ran. Then, I wept. *sigh*
