Home Away from Home



Today, there was ridiculous storm (a tornado). We had to get everyone away from the windows and get into the stair way. It was crazy!!! It was 1:00pm (11:00am for you guys) and it was pitch black outside like it was midnight only lit by the lightning that flashed every 15 seconds and the headlights of the cars below. The thickest clouds I have ever seen hovered over the Twin-cities Metro area. The wind was so strong the debris was flying up and hitting our windows on the 6th floor making loud noises. After about 30 minutes, the streets were dried up and the clouds past over us. I looked outside and started laughing because it looked like that nothing even happened. The sky was super blue and clear of all rain clouds. I sat in my cubicle and said "This madness would never happen at home!" I miss the weather over there. If you think that you know what a storm is like try visiting me here and see.
