tornadoes

we have our first possiblilty of tornadoes this weekend. i've been terrified of them since i was about 5. i had a traumatic experience at the minnesota historical museum in the cities. there is a tornado simulation room and my parents took me in with them. i've went back to it and it's actually not that bad. what happens is you're in this room that looks like a basement with windows by the ceiling and it looked green outside. and they had the creepy voice from the national weather service playing on the radio. and the sirens were going. then it started shaking. and then it was over. anyway, i usually freak out if it gets stormy. so we'll see how this goes...
