Heidi,
That was kind of cool.  Thanks for sharing.  I think those kind of connections, recognizing when something is ironic, is one of the things that makes life brilliant.  Your story brought a smile to my face.  
And being originally from Ohio, I know what you are talking about with thunderstorms in Indiana in December.  And, in the land of John Mellencamp, it's just as ironic that the Oils should show up a thunderin'.

usual at 1:45am because I'm a complete night owl. I'm home for Christmas 
break and I found an old Oils mix tape in my room that I had made a couple 
years back and I decided to put it on. The last song on the tape was 'In 
the Rain.' Probably not much more than two seconds after the song and tape 
ended, it started pouring rain outside and suddenly it thundered. For one, 
it was kind of creepy because a thunderstorm in December in Indiana is one 
of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard of considering that usually 
it's lake effect snow that we're getting at this time of year. And then of 
course it was weird because of the Oils song that had just been playing, 
along with the timing of when the thunderstorm started. Anyways...thought 
it was kinda cool, told my parents and I got that usual silence while they 
looked at me like I was crazy, and rolled their eyes in that way that says, 
'not another story that has to do with the Oils,' so I figured that it was 
something that the PW's might think was kinda cool....haha.
