I've basically been hearing about heavy weather coming towards us since I got up this morning, and the tension and the waiting is getting to me. Tornado watches always make me feel icky and nervous, and we're under one until midnight and I have to go to work and if we hadn't had that tree thrown through our window three years ago, maybe I wouldn't be so edgy.
The wind's been really strong all day, and it sounded like some detritus just blew into the side of the house. But no rain or thunder yet. That's how it happens, they sneak up on you.
I love a good thunderstorm as much as anyone?
But I'd really rather stay home and cower against the basement wall with Oni than have to watch it all come down from the huge front windows at Four Star.
I really hate tornadoes.
Edit: Dad just came downstairs and said that he's "never seen a white patch on the Weather Channel's radar," and "this is gonna be tough."
And the worst part is the waiting and knowing there's really nothing you can do.
Oh god. Oh I hate tornadoes.
