One would think, since I'm a native Texan and spent my formative years in the Panhandle, I would be used to such things. One would think... ;)
It used to drive me crazy that my birthday falls right in the middle of tornado season, and for my 17th, a giant tornado flattened a small town just north of me. Sheesh. Last night wasn't too bad, except for being home alone with the cat. When I heard the wind pick up and saw all the trees go flat, I hid in the bathroom. Heh. Everything looks better this morning. Aside from my computer and a strange scrape on my car window, everything is fine.
Now just hope it doesn't storm when I have to get on the plane!! ;)
