Was it to each other? Did they also fly out the crushes? 

It was to each other. Staged, of course. Though they had to sign all kinds of waivers saying it was real. (is Maury reading this?)

That's fantastic. Were they coached in acting first or anything? 
If not Maury, how about Sally Jessy Raphael?

ceejay, Do you have daily limits??? I vote get all of the drinks.

I'm going to hang out here even though I won't be drinking for another 2 hours or so. Today's training seems to be going faster than yesterday.

Good for that! Let the countdown begin...

Nope. I still believe Maury legitimately thinks all these things are real.

Haha, I'll squeeze this in with the Farrah talk. We have been under a tornado watch all day, because #livingitupintornadoalleyhere . We treat tornado watches as no big deal, so we went about work as usual. My coworker and I were driving this afternoon with our clients, and we started getting the weather station buzzing in on the radio non stop, saying a tornado had touched down about 20 minutes away, so we were now in a warning. Then we started getting texts on our phones from the weather channel saying to take cover. I think we got like 4 of them within the 30 minute time span we were driving.  We didn't hear the sirens going off, so we figured we were okay.

There was nowhere to pull over because it's the middle of nowhere, and we had two kids with us. Their parents are calling us keeping us updated on the weather condition, the kids are freaking out in the backseat, and I was trying to keep the kids calm. Then my coworker's husband called saying the tornado had touched down a few miles away from us and was heading for us and we needed to get out now.

So I was driving throughout all of this, and finally looked at my coworker and was like well.....what do we do? We had 10 minutes before the tornado was supposed to hit the area we were at, so we raced the kids back to their homes, and drove sped the opposite direction of the tornado to get home.

In reality, we probably would have been okay taking them somewhere like a fire station or somewhere like that for cover, but I don't want a tornado to hit and I have my autistic clients who are freaked out with me. In the time it would have taken to find somewhere safe, we could have gotten them home (because they both lived out in the country).

No daily limits but I know my manager would side eye a $100+ "dinner". I'm probably at about $50 now but already feel a bit tipsy. Hehe

How scary! Kuddos for keeping calm and collected and getting them and yourself to safety! 


I had one of my clients with Autism in the car with me last year during a hail storm, he decided he wanted out and grabbed me by the hair and shook me until I pulled over. #socialworkerproblems

Welcome, PepperPottsJ! Your sister is the coolest.

Hai everybody. I have diet Pepsi - I'm too tired for drinks tonight. I'll probably make up for it tomorrow night.

That is so scary! I'm glad you and the kids are okay! I'm glad you didn't have to take them to a firehouse or something- that likely  would have been traumatizing for all involved.

wanderingheart, I am happy you are alive!!

This is terrifying. Glad everyone is okay. You need liquor!

Holy shit wanderingheart that is so scary. I'm glad you are safe.

But really guys, it wasn't that bad. The tornadoes that touched down didn't do too much damage.

ETA: Definitely no flying cows, mill23. I probably would have passed out if I saw that, ha.

hai cabgirl! I saw this today and think you should buy it and report back on whether it is as hilarious as it looks

OMG WHAT. Horsey mask for squirrels?! That is amazing!

The human version is still in my Amazon cart. I haven't been drunk enough to justify spending $20 on it yet.

A few years ago, my best friend and I were in the middle of baking a delicious blueberry lemon cake. We were arranging the blueberries to spell out words when we got the texts from Weather Channel and a call from her dad saying there was a tornado nearby and to take cover. We stood in the kitchen for a few minutes trying to decide what to do (they don't happen much where I'm from, so it was scary!). We were confusing what to do in an earthquake vs tornado. We brought the uncooked cake and our glasses of wine into the basement with us. #priorities

It ended up going in a different direction and then disappearing. My cake was unharmed.
