potato_headAll OK here! The tornado missed us completely (about 90 miles from where it touched down) although we did get really high winds.
So the tornado touched down yesterday AFTER I got to work (well pretty much exactly when I arrived). And I had no way there of finding out about it. I didn't know about it until my coworker came in panicking about how close it was to us. It wasn't that big of a deal though, because work was actually the safest place to be for both of us, because of the walk-in fridge and freezer; after an hour we were both joking about it to keep calm. I was literally at work for the exact duration of the tornado, though...I went in at 4:30 and the national guard cleared us at 10:00 as we turned off the lights.
What astounded me was the fact that it was busy. Really? The sky is GREEN and you come here to buy a doughnut???? But of course, this is MA...Snowstorms that we get multiple times a winter = FUCKING PANIC. MOB THE GROCERY STORES, WE MIGHT BE SNOWED IN FOR MONTHS. Tornado? Pffft it's just a little wind, I want my goddamn doughnut.
Also, I just got my first jury duty summons. For August. SOCIAL ANXIETY IS GO.
