The kid and I were watching a Pirates movie this afternoon and a red bar started scrolling across the screen saying we were under a tornado warning. That got my attention fast. I then noticed the sirens going off outside. I ran the kid into the bedroom which scared the shit out of Richard who was asleep. Told him what was going on and tried to calm the poor kid down. He has a tendency to go batshit when he hears the sirens. Richard doesn’t react too well to these situations either. I put the kid in the closet and we tried to find out what the hell was going on. Turns out that a wall cloud went over us… probably while the kid and I were watching the movie. After an hour of listening to the radio we ambled back into the living room.
I hate those hyper stress situations… I’ve got a headache from straining to hear the radio.
