  • One way to start of a day well is to wake up in the dark and, then, as soon as one turns on the TV, the sirens start going off in town while the TV starts beeping and showing your county shaded red on a map. Tornado warning. I thought about grabbing the iMac (but didn’t, yet was relieved I’d turned her off last night)… I didn’t close windows or my balcony door enough… grabbed a sweatshirt… felt my heart race as I put the bug in the garage… and then waited it out telling the college kids who camped out with me on the lower level of the building that an Indian legend has stated we’ll never have a tornado because three rivers meet here. I was certain someone had just spotted rotation or a funnel cloud; and I was correct.

    I came back to wet carpet and a delivery from FedEx. It was delivered in the storm? That’s nuts!
