so i don't know if any of you heard, but this weekend, there was a tornado in iowa. which is really unusual. tornadoes don't usually hit so late in the year. anyway, it hit in stratford, which is about an hour away from where i live. it destoryed about half the town. turns out it was within a mile of my cousin's house, which is crazy. they could see it from where they live. but it didn't hit them. good.
it's raining here now. tonight's my first night at work, so my parents are a little worried about icy roads. if it stops raining soon, it may dry up before it's dark and freezing. otherwise... hey, it's iowa. winter driving conditions, man.
tomorrow i give my china talk to the rotary. which means i need to time it today and look up a few facts i've been putting off (how exactly DID the stone forrest form? when was qin emperor? 2000 years ago? 2500?)
scheduling,
