I forgot to blog about the tornadoes.
So one night we're sitting around, watching TV, our friend JD was over, and we see tornado warnings on the news. Not the first time we've seen them scrawl across the screen so we figure no big deal.
Well fast forward a few hours to when the tornado alarm for Wilmore sounds. At that point it was a very big deal for me. At that point we were hunkered down in the hallway with a flashlight and blankets, listening to the local news anchor describe roofs being ripped off people's houses.
I know, some of my friends down here are going to read this and make fun of me; they probably slept peacefully through the night. But we don't do tornadoes in NJ or WA.
Note: Thank you to all the people who left messages on my phone for my birthday. Just checked my voice mail now, over a week later :)

I promise not to make fun of you for being worried about a tornado if you promise not to make fun of me for forcing myself to walk downstairs and pretend to be worried while I tried to sleep on our couch, all the while telling myself it's worth interrupting my sleep to ensure the safety of our unborn son...
DISCLAIMER -- in Missouri there are tornado warnings frequently, so I've been desensitized.
We slept through the whole ordeal as well. Didn't hear about it until the next day.
I don't have your number by the way, but I'd like to get together and play yarn sometime. I'm home a lot.
