An Ill Wind

Man-o-manischewitz, we've been having some mongo windstorms lately! Power's out at home, so I've been hanging out at the office. But I think I need to go now.

We had horrible winds today too. It's becoming my least favorite kind of weather. It's so deceptive. You look out the window, and it seems like a pretty day with bright blue skies. Then you go outside and you can hardly breathe, and you're crying from the dust in your eyes. And it always reminds me of the Virginia Tech shooting. The winds were so bad that day that the Lifeflight helicopters couldn't take off, and so some of the shooting victims didn't make it to the trauma center in time.

Oh, yikes - I don't think I ever heard that, about the Va Tech shootings!

I came home and tiptoed around with some candles. When I finally got upstairs, the Mr. (who had gone to bed) told me that he'd put fresh batteries in the little flashlight I keep at the bedside. Saved - I could actually read for a while.
