Right now I am standing at my keyboard, the other tab on a three minute loop of radar due to the tornadoes that have peppered our area today. "Oh no!" you say. "You shouldn't have your PC on in a storm like that!"
Have to. We don't have tv and the radio won't pick up a decent channel so to keep a good eye on the weather... it's all pc baby.
I stand because the only place in my apartment that is an interior room with no windows is the hallway where my pc is. So my chair was wheeled away to make room for four sleeping monsters. And a neurotic dog.
I have to say... it takes a certain finesse to convince a child that Yes, I did just rouse you from a deep comfortable sleep in your new squishy fine bed to sit you all in a row on the cold hard tile of the hallway at three in the morning but there is ABSOLUTELY nothing to be afraid of. Nothing at all. Business as normal my darlings.
And the tornado warnings just got bigger and extended. Peachy. I am not afraid of tornadoes. But I deeply respect them. Oh yes I do.
So I have four dozing darlings stretched out at my feet as I do my job.
Watch over them.
