Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Yesterday I stumbled across a streaming weather report out of Oklahoma City and was sucked in for 2-3 hours. Their coverage was amazing. They had 2 helicopters and at least 2 spotter vehicles on the ground and they were giving people such specific information. Sunday night I found good coverage from a Springfield TV station that was covering all of SW MO and NW Arkansas.

The only streaming report I can get out of KC is seriously lame (all other stations want me to install a plug-in, which I have no patience for at the moment). I've got text only updates from the channel I want to be watching. Frustrating.

Jesse,

I think they created their own place too.

Oh, now I'm terribly curious what all that user-generated places look like!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Fuck. Erin lives just outside of KC on the Kansas side, and I have friends on the MO side.

Oh, amyth, if you didn't click Frankenbuddha's link, you should really scroll up and do that.

I haven't seen reports of damage or injuries in the KC area. Sedalia took a hit though.

I just saw a report that people in the Governor's Mansion have been herded into the basement, so there must be something around Jeff City, too.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Okay, KCers, stay low and keep your heads down. Yikes.

Today is Towel Day. Don't forget your towel!

Wish I had brought a truckload to work today. We ended up closing school due to flooding. Right after 3rd period, my principal and I got to my room at about the same time to make sure it wasn't flooding due to all the rain. My room is typically ground zero for that. It wasn't. Three minutes later, however, it totally was. I (and 3 other teachers) disconnected all my computers and moved them across the room. I (and 2 other teachers) cleared out the bottom drawers of my filing cabinets.

Then, all around the first floor, it started flooding. It was seeping sewage water into the halls. So, we evacuated all the kids to the 2nd floor. Then, the decision was made to close school and send the kids home. 2.5 hours later, I think they're all picked up.

I am exhausted. My room no longer has standing water in it, but there 2 huge fans drying the carpet. I'm lucky that it was just rainwater coming in and not sewage water like other areas of the school.

And? Today is Crazy Hair and Clash Day. So, as parents are coming to pick up their kids and as the superintendent comes in my room to check out the flooding, I'm standing there in green/yellow/white striped capris, a pink/black/fuschia polka dotted top, pink/fuschia/animal print socks, and a black and hot pink anime wig.

Hi! I'm a professional teacher. Please trust me with your children. Good times.

There are a lot of power outages around KC that could keep them from checking in right away.
