Disaster Magnet

We got evacuated about an hour ago because of a tornado warning. Fortunately, we didn't have to stay long. But, I think the disasters are following me. We went to one of the buildings on the base. I was almost banished to the kids area, because one part of the building was a bar and they thought I was a teenager.

OMG that's TERRIBLE!! Evacuated! That's just such awful bad luck, for you again and again! Or is it just where you live? We don't get tornadoes in Wellington... Mind you, you're not living where you lived before. Are there still cows at the end of your street or did you move again? I had a feeling you moved again... in which case, maybe you need to go to some other coast of America... *g*

-because one part of the building was a bar and they thought I was a teenager.
I hope you sidled up to the bar and ordered a stiff gin and tonic.

I moved again so no cows. It really turned out to be nothing, but disaster and talk of disasters seem to stalk me. Everything's okay.

I hope you sidled up to the bar and ordered a stiff gin and tonic.

Nope, no drinks. I have no idea what a gin and tonic would do to me. I've only had beer and half a cup of champagne in my entire life.

Well, that's a relief.

Really? Wow! My father had a walk-in bar when I was growing up. We would help ourselves ;-)
For me, a stiff drink in the face of an impending storm would be considered soothing! I can drink several with no apparent effect. So I tend to not drink very much at all *g*

Yeah, you definitely need a Mast of Disaster icon. LOL!

I don't suppose there's a better place to be than on a base, though. They must have the best shelters for miles, and at least you're not going to be waiting around for help this time. *g*

How long do you guys expect to be living there? Do they by any chance have a library??

[dani257]

We're actually looking for somewhere else, scouting out towns. Hopefully with transportation so I can get around. There is a library, but you need to be military to work there.

[ezust]

Transportation is a number one priority. Not just job-wise, but for your own mental health. You'll end up agoraphobic if you're too isolated for too long.

(Unless it's your choice to be agoraphobic. In which case whee! More power to you and your wacky, anti-social neurosis! We celebrate people's differences with wild abandon!)

I'm glad that you were not too terribly displaced :)

Btw, I left a message for you in my LJ... something I thought might interest you :)
