Safe, but sleepy

I think the first weather radio alarm went off a little before 3am. I stumbled to the shelves, gave a quick listen, determined it wasn't imminent danger, and fell back into bed. Only to have the alarm go off a little after 3am with actual danger. On went the TV. Open went my eyes. JD woke up when the n'hood sirens started wailing. She went to the bathroom, verified that I was on storm watch, and went back to bed. It wasn't until around 4:30am that the less severe line of storms approached and I could pull my eyes off the TV. The last time I saw the clock, it was 5:03am. JD woke me up about 90 minutes later.

I am among the walking dead today. Blech.

I don't miss this. One of my most fear-tinged memories was the Night of Tornadoes that touched down less than a mile from my house, destroyed Jones Valley Elementary, and proceeded to demolish a lot of that area of town.

Of course, I'm looking forward to my first fear-tinged earthquake memory...
